I deeply believe in the human potential in uncovering one’s unique purpose in life and leading a meaningful life. This belief motivated me to pursue a path to discover my own purpose in life: helping people feel heard and seen, have them see more objectively how they are being limited in life and relationships, and help them wake up to their own unique essential being. As I continue my own path of self-actualization, I am here to support you discover a truer and more authentic version of yourself. After several years of pursuing different careers, including business and teaching, I realized that my calling in life was becoming a psychotherapist. Having been in the business for several years both as a client and a therapist, I know how immensely transformative psychotherapy can be.

 

 

I first came to the U.S. when I was 17 to pursue my undergraduate degree in Business Administration. My interest in psychology and curiosity of the human condition led me to pursue an advanced degree in Social Psychology in London. Later, I worked in the private sector for some years until I realized that it was my calling to work directly with people contributing to their growth as individuals. This led me to get a teaching position at a university in Turkey where I worked directly with young adults. However, I felt like I was still missing something deeper and more intimate. I came back to the U.S. to follow my calling for personal healing and growth, which led me to the path of becoming a psychotherapist. I feel blessed for having found my passion and use it to benefit others in their own healing and leading a satisfied life.
