Dual-qualified psychologist and sociologist delivering evidence-based assessment and therapeutic interventions.
What I'm looking for
I am a dual-qualified psychologist and sociologist (Istanbul Commerce University) with hands-on experience across clinical, educational, and corporate settings. I blend psychological assessment, developmental frameworks, and sociological research to inform practice.
In clinical roles I conducted comprehensive observations, contributed to multidisciplinary case formulation, and developed competencies in evidence-based therapeutic approaches. I have applied play, art, narrative therapies and child-centered facilitation in preschool and counseling environments.
In research and corporate placements I applied sociological methodologies and quantitative analysis to consumer behaviour and market insight projects, supporting strategic business intelligence. I have also supported curriculum development and large-scale events coordination.
I hold recent specialist certifications in Art Therapy, Play Therapy, Philosophy for Children, and Narrative Therapy, and I seek roles where I can integrate assessment, therapy, research, and community-engaged practice to support child development and wellbeing.
