I have been involved in psychotherapy for 20 years, having completed a BA in Psychology, an MA in Dramatherapy and an MA in Existential Psychotherapy and Counselling. I have a particular interest in both family dynamics and trauma and have a Postgraduate Certificate in Family Therapy and Systemic Practice and completed training with the European Society for Trauma and Dissociation.

 I am also a qualified supervisor for other mental health professionals and give occasional training sessions especially on trauma informed approaches.

In addition to my private practice, I have wide clinical experience, having worked in different settings including a young people’s counselling service in Cambridge, Psychological treatment services at Addenbrooke’s Hospital, a GP surgery in St Ives, Cambridge Rape Crisis Centre and with Turkish refugees at Mind in Enfield, London.

I practice in both English and Turkish. I am registered with the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) and follow their code of ethics.
