My Approach
as a Therapist
In my sessions, I primarily draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Gestalt Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I integrate these approaches flexibly, tailoring the process to each client’s unique needs. I would like to briefly explain to you what these theories are.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is based on the strong connection between our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It is not only what we experience, but how we interpret these experiences that shapes our emotional responses and actions. In this process, we work together to recognize automatic thought patterns and develop a more flexible relationship with them. At the same time, we identify behavioral patterns that may be unhelpful and support the development of more adaptive alternatives.
Gestalt Therapy views the individual as a whole. Our thoughts, emotions, bodily sensations, and experiences are interconnected. This approach focuses on the “here and now.” Its aim is to deepen awareness, support individuals in taking responsibility for their choices, and help them build a more authentic and connected way of living.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), rather than trying to control or eliminate difficult thoughts and emotions, encourages making space for them while building a meaningful life alongside these experiences. Clarifying personal values and taking steps in alignment with them is central to this approach. It strengthens a more flexible and compassionate relationship with one’s inner experiences.
Each client is unique. Therefore, I shape the therapeutic process according to individual needs, integrating different approaches and techniques to create a personalized path.
My aim is not to help you control your thoughts and emotions, but to support you in building a meaningful life by developing a more flexible relationship with them, guided by your values.
