About
Hi, I'm Gamze Akmeşe
I care about offering every client a safe, nonjudgmental, and compassionate space, and about making room for change and healing together.
I'm Gamze Akmeşe, Psychologist (Uzman Psikolog, Türkiye). After completing my undergraduate degree in psychology, I had the chance to deepen my work internationally by earning a master's in psychology in South Korea. That experience gave me a way to approach the well-being journey of people from different cultures and places with an integrative, flexible perspective.
My approach to therapy brings together dynamic psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, emotion-focused therapy, EMDR, and contemporary methods within one integrative framework. I care about offering every client a safe, nonjudgmental, and compassionate space, and about making room for change, awareness, and healing together.
My Approach to Therapy
Not a single method, but your story
Rather than working with just one method, I keep each client's story and needs at the center. Sometimes we look together at our thought patterns (CBT), sometimes at our emotions (emotion-focused therapy), and sometimes at past experiences (dynamic psychotherapy, EMDR). We move at your pace and toward your goals. What we talk about stays confidential, and you won't be judged here.
