Turkan Durmaz

I am an adolescent and adult therapist registered with the British Psychological Society (BPS).

After completing my undergraduate degree in Psychological Counselling and Guidance at Gaziosmanpaşa University in 2010, I moved to England in 2011 to pursue my postgraduate education. I completed my Master’s degree at the University of Leicester and continue my doctoral research at the same university, focusing on trauma in psychology.

Alongside my academic work, I have undertaken extensive professional training to enhance my clinical practice.

I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) in UK, an evidence-based therapeutic approach particularly effective in working with trauma.In my practice, I integrate EMDR with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Play Therapy techniques, tailoring each approach to meet the individual needs of my clients.

I offer both online therapy for adolescents and adults, as well as in-person sessions with MIndTherapyCounselling. I support clients experiencing depression, panic attacks, phobias, social anxiety, anger management difficulties, sleep disorders, and a range of adolescent mental health challenges.
