Sümeyye Sancaktar

I’m a clinical psychologist specializing in psychodynamic therapy, working with adults to explore the unconscious processes and internal conflicts that shape their thoughts, emotions, and interpersonal relationships. I hold a Psychology degree from Boğaziçi University and a Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Istanbul Bilgi University, completed in 2021. During my master’s program, I gained hands-on clinical experience at the university’s psychological help unit, working with individuals from various backgrounds and receiving intensive supervision in both English and Turkish. Since 2020, I have been running my private practice, providing psychological help to individuals facing a range of challenges. I started to build my practice in Istanbul while also working in a state hospital. In 2023, I relocated to Berlin, where I currently continue my practice, offering both in-person and online sessions. I support my clients in working through issues like depression, anxiety, identity crises, existential questions, loss, and relational difficulties. I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals from diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds. My relocation from Istanbul to Berlin has sparked a deeper curiosity and exploration of the psychological aspects of immigration, identity, and boundaries.
