I completed my undergraduate education in Guidance and Psychological Counseling at Istanbul Aydin University. During this process, through internships in schools and private educational institutions, as well as theoretical training, I had the opportunity to examine the development, change, and interaction processes of human psychology in childhood more comprehensively.

​

After completing my undergraduate education, I went to the United Kingdom and completed the "Counselling and Psychotherapy" program at St. Paul's College. During this period, I had the chance to get to know the perspectives and approaches of my colleagues from different geographies more closely. Additionally, in London, at Queen Mary's Hospital, I conducted individual sessions with individuals with mental disorders such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, paranoid disorder; participated in group therapy and music therapy applications.

​

I completed my master's degree in Clinical Psychology at Uskudar University. During the education process, in addition to pathology courses, I learned the teachings necessary for the psychotherapy process, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Family and Couples Therapy, Group Therapy, and Psychodiagnostic Tests, from the most competent individuals. I completed my clinical internship at NP Istanbul Neuropsychiatry Hospital. During the internship, I conducted interviews with patients, applied psychological and psychiatric tests, and attended many rounds and seminars. I completed my master's thesis on the topic of "Examining the Relationship Between Regular Exercise, Dissociative Experiences, and Psychological Resilience."

​

In the dynamic field of psychology, where each individual is unique, I continue to make a constant effort to learn. As a result of this awareness and effort, I conduct the psychotherapy process eclectically with my adolescent and adult clients, primarily utilizing Cognitive and Behavioral Therapy as well as Schema Therapy approaches.
