English-Speaking Psychologist in Istanbul

I am a clinical psychologist offering psychoanalytic/psychodynamic psychotherapy to adults, in English and Turkish. Sessions take place in person in Kadıköy, Istanbul, or online.

My practice is open to everyone seeking psychotherapy in English, in particular to clients living abroad, those relocating to Istanbul, and international clients.

How psychoanalytic/psychodynamic psychotherapy works

Psychotherapy opens a space to express yourself as you are, to be heard and seen. In psychoanalytic work, speech is the main material of therapy: your words, associations and dreams are explored together. Past experiences and unconscious conflicts are taken into account, and their reflections in your present life are worked through. The aim is to understand your inner world and past experiences better and to create new meanings.

Therapy is based on trust and confidentiality, within a fair and ethical framework. Sessions are held at least once a week, in person or online.

About me

I graduated from METU Psychology in 2008. During my master's in Clinical Psychology at METU, I trained in psychoanalytic theory and technique and conducted individual therapy sessions with adults under supervision. I have attended introductory seminars at the Freud-Lacan Psychoanalysis Association and the Istanbul Psychoanalysis Association, and I continue my own personal analysis.
