I completed my undergraduate degree in Psychology at Bahçeşehir University in 2020. I then completed my Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology at the same university with high honours, where my thesis explored the relationship between narcissism, relationship addiction, and attachment styles. Continuing my academic journey in the UK, I pursued a Master’s degree in Public Mental Health at Queen Mary University of London, focusing my dissertation on the role of self-compassion-focused therapies in addiction prevention. I am currently conducting face-to-face therapy sessions as part of Psikolog Londra.

I am trained as an Existential Psychotherapist, qualifying from Regents University. I work with clients to examine the world around them, including looking at their life choices and what has influenced and led them to those choices. I hope to empower the client in whatever life path they might be on and help them to explore their place in the world and the relationships in their life. I work by helping the client to explore their life path, where they can consider what has influenced their choices and discuss if there are any regrets or expectations within their current life. By examining the impact of past choices on current life

I offer integrative psychotherapy, DBT-informed therapy and neuroaffirming support for ADHD, autism and AuDHD, alongside work with BPD, trauma and relationships.
You may be doing well at work or in everyday life, yet feel anxious, exhausted or overwhelmed behind the scenes. If you have ADHD, are autistic or identify as having both (AuDHD), years of masking or trying to meet others’ expectations may have left you feeling misunderstood. You might also be dealing with intense emotions, relationship difficulties, trauma, addiction or patterns that keep repeating. Therapy can help you make sense of these experiences without treating the way your mind works as something to fix. Together, we can explore what matters to you and find ways to feel more settled, confident and connected.

I have a particular clinical and theoretical interest in states of depersonalisation, derealisation, trauma, and borderline and narcissistic personality organisations.
Psychodynamic psychotherapy involves helping you to identify and understand recurring themes and patterns in your relationships. Although certain ways of relating may have been conducive to your survival at one point, you may now be experiencing their cost. Psychotherapy aims to make these relational patterns conscious and thus more amenable to change.

Have you been entertaining the idea of therapy for some time, or is this an impulse search? Have you asked yourself questions such as: “Why me?”, “Who am I?”, “How did I get here?”, “Is this the rest of my life?”, "Is this really happening to me", "Why does this always happen to me?", “How do I get where I want to be?” Have you or others have labelled yourself as "down", "depressed", "anxious" or "stressed"? Are you worried about feeling a certain way, or not living the life you were meant to live? Do you carry on your shoulders more than you bargained for and feel you can't share with anyone? I am here for you.

You don’t necessarily need a diagnosis to benefit from therapy, just a desire to simply better understand your mind. Psychotherapy focuses on helping you understand yourself more deeply, including how past experiences may still be influencing how you feel, think and relate to others today. Often, we can find ourselves repeating patterns or responding in ways that don’t feel helpful, without fully knowing why.

Borderline Personality (BPD) Counsellors
What is the most successful approach to treating borderline personality disorder?
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is considered the gold standard of treatment for borderline personality disorder. An evidence-based treatment, it addresses the extreme emotional reactivity, the relationship difficulties, and the acts of self-harm that create so much distress for BPD patients. DBT is a comprehensive program that includes both regular individual psychotherapy sessions and weekly group sessions of skills training.
What happens in treatment of borderline personality disorder?
Treatment typically consists of weekly individual therapy sessions that last an hour and group skill-focused instructional sessions that may last up to two hours. Patients are typically given homework “assignments” in which they are asked to practice in their daily life the skills they acquire in therapy. Patients also keep a diary tracking their emotions and impulses as a way to know which situations are most problematic and to help them gain control over their own behavior. Difficult situations and feelings are typically reviewed in therapy sessions and more constructive solutions found.
What kinds of problems does BPD treatment help with?
DBT was initially developed to dampen the self-destructive impulses of chronically suicidal patients. It is now the treatment of choice for borderline personality disorder, a serious condition marked by extreme emotional reactivity, relationship instability, and self-injurious behaviors. Treatment of BPD helps patients tolerate the flux of emotions without acting on them, often with a specific focus on tolerating negative emotions. DBT addresses the core problems of BPD—fear of abandonment, low self-esteem, and impulsivity.
What is the goal of treatment in borderline personality disorder?
The goal of treatment for borderline personality disorder (BPD) is to relieve the extreme emotional distress that patients experience—to curb their emotional reactivity, to minimize their inclination to self-harm, and to reduce their impulsivity. Toward these ends, patients are not only taught an array of new coping skills and techniques for emotional regulation, they are given opportunities to practice them. Another major goal of treatment is interpersonal effectiveness; patients learn and problem-solve ways to effectively communicate in relationships, especially how to ask for what they need as a way to minimize hurt feelings.
