My undergraduate education:
England University of Chichester honors degree
Degree:
Master's degree in Clinical Psychology and Neuroscience at the Universita Degli Studi di Pavia, Italy.
Throughout my academic journey, I have played an active role behind the scenes of science, conducting extensive research on cognitive performance, lifestyle risk factors, and neurocognitive disorders.
I deepened my clinical experience by conducting neuropsychological assessments and preparing detailed clinical reports for diagnosis and treatment planning under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Gülsen Babacan-Yıldız .
During this process, I worked with neurological and psychiatric populations, blending my theoretical neuroscience knowledge with practical therapeutic interventions.
In addition to my clinical work, I have also been involved in projects focused on social benefit.
In projects conducted in collaboration with Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality , GIZ , and ILO , I managed field studies, psychosocial needs analyses, and reporting processes for disadvantaged communities.
I also volunteered to conduct Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) interventions to help high school students manage exam stress.
With the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Cognitive Therapy, and MBSR training I received from the Beck Institute , I structure my therapy processes to increase my clients' psychological resilience and offer a scientifically based healing environment.
