Hello! I’m Eylul

Clinical Psychologist

I was born and raised in Istanbul, where I completed my bachelor’s degree in psychology and my master’s degree in clinical psychology. Throughout my career, I have received training in various approaches such as psychodynamic therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), but my primary specialization lies in EMDR Therapy and Schema Therapy for individual clients.

EMDR is the core method I use in my sessions, and I am proud to be a Europe Accredited EMDR Therapist. As an evidence-based approach, EMDR has shown great effectiveness in treating depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, and other emotional challenges. I have supported many individuals in processing traumatic experiences and reshaping the negative beliefs tied to those memories. EMDR empowers clients to reframe painful experiences, reduce emotional distress, and enhance their overall emotional health. I find this method especially powerful for those dealing with complex trauma or attachment-related issues.

In addition to EMDR, Schema Therapy is another central framework I use to help clients uncover and heal long-standing patterns of thinking and behavior that often originate in early life. Combining cognitive, emotional, and behavioral strategies, Schema Therapy is particularly beneficial for individuals facing chronic emotional struggles, providing a path to break free from limiting core beliefs.

When working with couples, I integrate the Gottman Method to help partners strengthen communication, navigate conflicts, and deepen their emotional connection.

I deeply believe in the transformative potential of therapy when it is customized to each client’s unique needs, built on a foundation of safety, trust, and a strong therapeutic relationship.

Testimonials

"Meeting Ms. Eylül was a significant turning point in my life. Thanks to schema therapy, I became more aware of the feelings of worthlessness and inability to establish and maintain relationships that I had been struggling with for many years, and it helped me get to know myself. Thanks to my therapist's patient and supportive approach, I learned to be more compassionate towards myself and change my unhealthy coping mechanisms. After the sessions, I feel stronger, more aware and more hopeful. I sincerely recommend Ms. Eylül."

Schema Therapy

"I started therapy three years ago to deal with my anxiety and Ms. Eylul has helped me a lot throughout this journey. I have never felt judged instead I have always felt that someone understands me. Her methods have really helped me understand the root of my anxiety and how to overcome it. It’s been a meaningful and transformative experience for me. Thank you, Ms. Eylul."

Anxiety

"We were working on my last years bike accident. After accident I couldn’t ride bicycle and it became phobia. After our sessions now i am able to ride bicycle again. I truly appreciate what she did."

EMDR Therapy

"I applied due to the problems I experienced in my relationship. The issues I faced significantly affected other areas of my daily life as well. A few months after starting therapy, I began to notice recurring patterns in my life and relationships, and as I worked on the connections between these patterns and my past experiences, I saw that something in my life started to change. Ms. Eylül played a very important role in my continuation towards a healthier life, both through her close conversation and her expertise."
