I offer psychotherapy in English and Turkish as a bilingual psychoanalyst (iAuS) in Vienna, supporting individuals and couples in navigating emotional challenges, unconscious conflicts, and life transitions.
I am a psychotherapist in training under supervision, specializing in psychodynamic or psychoanalytically oriented psychotherapy and psychoanalysis. I am continuing my theoretical and practical training at Sigmund Freud University, including supervision and training analysis with psychoanalysts approved by our institution.
With an international background, experience across diverse fields (e.g. law, academic coaching), and clinical training in psychiatric in-patient and psychotherapeutic outpatient settings, I bring a broad perspective to my work. I see therapy as a collaborative process where each therapeutic relationship is unique. My goal is to support you in finding clarity, balance and meaning as we explore your thoughts, emotions, and patterns toward lasting insights rather than temporary solutions.
If you feel ready to begin, you are welcome to contact me for an initial consultation.
Psychoanalytic psychotherapy is rooted in understanding that much of what shapes us lives outside of conscious awareness. Thoughts, feelings, and choices are often influenced by unconscious conflicts, early experiences, and patterns of relating that continue to live within us.
We aim for symptom relief, but the psychoanalytic work also asks what the symptoms mean and where they are coming from. Anxiety, depression, shame, rumination, recurring relationship difficulties are not just random… They signal what is seemingly forgotten and waiting to be heard. Through our exploration of deeper layers, we begin to uncover how past and present intertwine in our daily lives. Psychoanalytic psychotherapy is about working through internal conflicts and inhibitions to achieve lasting, realistic change and expanding your capacity for love, work, and creativity.
The free association method is simple yet profound: you speak as freely as possible (whatever falls to your mind in the moment) without self-censorship and I listen with attention not only to what is said but what is also not directly spoken and provide interpretations. In this shared process, dreams, slips, repetitions, and associations become meaningful material that guides the work.
