About me
Hi, I’m Ayse. I’m an integrative-existential psychotherapist based in London. I work with individuals and couples. While my main focus is on relationship issues, I also have experience supporting clients through life transitions, divorce or separation, career challenges, addictions, anger issues, and crises arising from loss or change.
My approach to relationship issues is holistic; our way of relating to others—especially our romantic partners—is deeply rooted in how we learned to ‘survive’ in this world. I also subscribe to the idea that the quality of our relationships directly affects the quality of our lives and majority of our issues stem from our relational blind spots. Together, we will take a journey to explore your patterns, where they come from, and how they impact your relationships.
I offer a collaborative, reflective approach to therapy, helping you make sense of your experiences and discover new ways of being. My practice is grounded in an understanding that every individual’s experience is unique - shaped by their history, relationships, and the meanings they ascribe to their world.
Working with me is about engaging in a dialogue. In that dialog the aim is to meet 'you', reconnect with your values and make meaning.

I completed my psychotherapy training and master's degree at Regent's University London. After spending the first two years studying Integrative Psychotherapy, I specialised in Existential Psychotherapy in my final year. In my practice, I primarily draw from Existential and Phenomenological thought, as well as Gestalt and CBT.
As we walk this path together, my preference will be to work face-to-face, but when travel issues, journeys, etc. arise, we will also be able to meet online, ensuring the continuity of therapy. Our sessions will be weekly, on the same day and time, and will last 50 minutes for individuals.
With couples, depending on the issues, we can decide on a weekly or bi-weekly schedule.
Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
