About Me

Hello, my name is Elif Dinçer, but you can call me Elif. I am from Marmaris, Türkiye. I speak Turkish, English, Greek, and Spanish.

Therapeutic Approach

My therapeutic approach is based on evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques. I aim to meditate on the current state of psychological well-being and offer personalized care to support positive transformation.

Communication Style

Respecting the person, showing empathy, striving to understand them, and offering support as much as ı can, are the cornerstones of my therapeutic approach. In our sessions, I prioritize creating a space where you feel safe, understood, and genuinely supported. Building an effective therapeutic relationship that aligns with our shared goals is one of my main focuses. I believe that being punctual and consistent with scheduled session dates, and times is essential. However, I also value flexibility when needed to accommodate your individual needs as long as any changes are communicated in advance. I view communication as one of the most vital elements of the therapeutic process. Therefore, it is my priority to establish a clear, open, and secure environment together. This way, if you ever experience any concerns or difficulties, you can express them without hesitation, and we can explore solutions together.
