There is always space for growth and self-improvement. Reaching out is not always easy, and opening your heart during difficult times can feel overwhelming. You may be going through something you cannot share with anyone. Depression can pull you into dark places, and you may need support, guidance, and tools to understand what is happening. Life transitions can be challenging, and you may be longing for your life and relationships to move into a better place.
I have experienced many of the challenges my clients face, and my own life story led me to this work. I offer individual and couples therapy for those navigating difficult transitions, emotional strain, or relationship issues. I provide a compassionate space to find clarity, reconnect with inner strength, and move toward hope.
Together we can uncover meaning, purpose, and a way of living that feels true to you. I offer a safe, open space where you can be fully yourself without judgment. If you are ready to explore healing, clarity, and a more authentic life, I welcome you to reach out when you feel ready.

I work with clients who struggle with depression and anxiety mostly. During our initial sessions, we will dive deeply into what is the cause and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that will help/support you to get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and improve immensely further into therapy.

There's a palpable warmth and relationality in Sinem's presence. There's such an accepting, open, and caring nature with her, I could safely assume nothing would be taboo in sharing with her. I highly recommend this exceptional therapist
