As a gestalt psychotherapist I aim to work with the current manifestation of whatever is going on for you. I specialise in working with clients who experience high levels of stress, depression, anxiety and challenges stemming from loss and grief. I speak English, German and Turkish.
I provide long-term psychotherapy and shorter time-limited counselling. We would work together to decide what type of contract best suits you.

Francine Shapiro developed Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing (EMDR) in 1987 in order to treat Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Since then, EMDR has been used to effectively treat a wide range of mental health problems.
Gestalt psychotherapy is a creative and body oriented psychotherapy approach which has a growing evidence base supporting its’ efficacy. Many difficult experiences are stored in our bodies, and as such understanding our bodies therapeutically is essential to my work.
Many clients who seek my help experience various degrees of stress from overwhelming past experiences that still impact on them even though the event has passed. These type of problems are often addressed as trauma, which may sound like a big word, but all it means is literally “wound“.
As a practitioner, I am aware that your experiences will be different to mine. Even if we might share similarities, my aim is not to assume what it is like to be you. Working with diversity and difference means to me a capacity to connect in spite of differences in background, orientation, ethnicity
