I completed my bachelor’s degree in Psychology at Istanbul University and my master’s degree in Clinical Psychology at the University of Bergamo. Throughout my professional career, I have worked as a school counselor and psychologist in various counseling centers, working with children showing both typical and atypical development. During my graduate studies, I completed my clinical internship at Spazio Autismo NGO, working with children with different developmental patterns. Between 2020-2024, I continued my developmental early intervention (DIR Floortime) and psychotherapy work at Yol Developmental Counseling, where I was a founding partner. I am currently continuing my psychoanalytic psychotherapy formation at the Istanbul Child and Adolescent Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Association (ICEPPD), which is affiliated with the European Federation for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy (EFPP).
Since 2024, I have been continuing my psychotherapy practice with children, adolescents, and adults in Moda, Kadıköy.
