Hayatınızda tatmin edici bir ilişki veya cinsellik istiyorsunuz. Belki ihtiyaçlarınızı doğrudan ifade etmekte zorlanıyorsunuz ve ilişkilerinizde tartışma kısır döngülerinde takılıp kalıyorsunuz. Belki tutku kaybıyla veya cinsel kaygılarla mücadele ediyorsunuz. Partnerinizden daha iyi duygusal destek, takdir, saygı veya tatminkar cinsel ilişki istemenin yollarını merak ediyor olabilirsiniz. Eğer bir göçmen veya yabancıysanız, ya da kültürler arası bir ilişkiniz varsa, kültürel farklılıklarla karşılaşabilirsiniz. Geleneksel olmayan veya açık bir ilişkiniz varsa, farklı değerler ve ilişki tarzlarını yönetmek zor geliyor olabilir.

I believe in creating a warm, friendly, judge-free atmosphere for you to comfortably share and process your past or current thoughts, emotions and issues together. Whether you’re feeling anxious, stressed, depressed, experiencing panic attacks or feeling like you’re going through a unique issue, you are not alone. Just talking and venting about your week alone, can be helpful to be able to process your thoughts and feelings with someone that will focus solely on you without any interruptions. Additionally, being multi-cultural and bilingual, has allowed me to be culturally sensitive and work well with diverse backgrounds.

If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed and unsure what to do next, it's time to get help. Let's turn your pain and uncertainty into growth you never thought possible. Talking about loss, grief, emotional pain and stress, with the right therapist who is non-judgmental will help you deal with these issues in a healthy way while feeling supported. You might be initially hesitant to seek out help and support for personal matters, but when you do, you will feel confident that you are taking a courageous first step towards getting to a better place and being a better you.

As a couple's psychotherapist with deep roots in cultural studies and contemplative psychotherapy, I am committed to helping you navigate the complexities of emotions and relationships that define our human experience. Often in life, feelings of sadness, confusion, or disconnection can overwhelm us. It’s easy to feel stuck—burdened by emotions that seem too dense to untangle or escape. We might find ourselves criticizing our own thoughts, pushing away loved ones, and losing sight of our innate vibrancy and creativity. But there is a way through this. Change is not only possible; it is within your grasp.

Making the decision to start therapy can feel overwhelming, but taking this first step is the most difficult part of it all. My name is Sibel and I am a counselor who believes in leading with empathy and compassion, with the hope of fostering a non-judgmental and productive environment for you. I am a culturally competent counselor with experience working with adults of all ages facing anxiety, depression, eating disorders, LGBTQIA+ related-stress, life transitions and more. Collaboratively, we will work together to create and achieve your goals at a pace that is comfortable for you.

I adapt my working methods to the needs of each individual who applies for psychotherapy; supporting someone in understanding a crisis event such as divorce, loss of a loved person or pet, or unusual stress or trauma. I work psychoanalytically when the therapy reaches a deeper level. My overall preference is to work with adults who are ready to sit down and commit to the interplay of understanding themselves at close range. Often this need arises during times of crisis and that is always a good time for beginning this life affirming process.

As a somatic psychotherapist, I integrate the mind, body, and soul fostering emotional, cognitive, physical, & social integration. I've observed the transformative impact of connecting to the body: releasing emotional blockages, tapping into its wisdom, understanding behavior patterns, and transforming stuck emotions into growth. I recognize the challenges of overwhelming environments, leading to reactive and dysregulated states. Despite intellectual self-awareness, there might be a gap in emotionally embodying authentic selves. This cycle can result in disconnection from self and others.

Psychoanalysis has been a lifetime passion and dedication in my understanding of our journey in our lives. I believe psychoanalysis gives us space to think, understand, and be able to tolerate what seems to be unbearable, frustrating, and hopeless as well as relief from interpersonal difficulties or obstacles to achieving professional and personal goals. Creating a safe, trusted, and nonjudgmental atmosphere helps talk freely about thoughts, feelings, memories, hopes, and wishes. Gradually one acquires a deeper awareness and understanding of repeating patterns and develops new ways of thinking.

Are you stuck somewhere? Did you hit a wall? Do you want to heal an old wound? Restore access to yourself? Cultivate a deeper understanding of the world around you? Explore repeating patterns? Break toxic cycles? Come as you are. Do you want to adjust to the changes in your life? Absorb a loss? Reassess your life goals? Overcome a challenge? Increase your self awareness? Be more present in the moment? Find your voice? Feel more empowered, more vibrant, more whole? Come as you are. I specialize in trauma, attachment wounding, adverse childhood experiences, dysfunctional narratives and toxic relationship cycles.

Everyone could benefit from speaking with a trained professional whether you need to check in with an objective sounding board, achieve personal growth or navigate challenges encountered within your life. Sometimes the thought of something can seem worse than the actual experience, or dwelling on situations intensifies feelings.
