I offer creative, embodied, introspective and self-reflective psychotherapy. In my sessions, I provide a safe and non-judgemental space where you can explore issues through talking or a more imaginative and symbolic approach using creative mediums. Each journey of exploration is unique. I believe that integrating the body, emotions, mind and reflection can foster a sense of connection, wholeness and healing. I consider that the therapeutic relationship is the core of psychotherapeutic work, where we co-create a sense of meaning and transformation can take place. I will work with you to foster insight, change, and growth.

Hello! My name is Giorgia and I'm a passionate Psychologist! Through a safe, authentic, empathic and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship, I help my clients to find a better way to see and accept themself while managing their life's challenges. We all go through hard moments in life, where emotional pain, lack of hope and feelings of being out of control, limit our ability to cope. One of the central core of my work is supporting my clients to feel in charge of thoughts, beliefs, attitudes and issues. These processes develop an awareness of how we think, how we perceive the world, and in particular, how we react to it.

My practice is for those who want to deepen their relationship with themselves and honour their soul's wisdom. Many struggle with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and intrusive thoughts, feeling trapped and unable to move forward with a life of meaning and purpose. I understand these struggles, having faced them myself. With no guidance available, I embarked on a personal journey of self-discovery to change this. Over 10 years of study, retreats, and consistent effort, I learned that healing isn’t just about moving from 'A' - 'B.' It’s about becoming aware of and accepting your reality, then using it as a catalyst for change.

I've been conducting therapies with adults and adolescents both Turkish and English. I mostly use CBT and Mindfulness to help my clients. I work on anxiety, depression, anger management, social anxiety, health anxiety, relationship problems as well as other mental health problems. When necessary, I use Solution Focused Therapy techniques which help patients to see their strong sides to achieve the desired goals and some Art Therapy techniques so that my clients can open up easier and see the things they are not aware of.

The counselling journey is never the same but in most cases, it starts with helping the client pinpoint their current challenges and struggles and get clarity on their patterns of thinking and behaving. We will also try to envision what the term “better life” looks like. We will then move into understanding how these patterns came to be. We will explore how these patterns are impacting the client's life. Finally, I help the client decide what changes must take place for their life to improve.
