“After my divorce, I started experiencing panic attacks. I began going to the emergency room during the day, constantly worried about my health. I started seeing a psychiatrist, who insisted that I also undergo therapy and recommended Dr. Meltem. We have been doing EMDR online therapy. I never thought my issues would diminish so quickly. Even when panic attacks do occur now, I manage to get through them quite easily.”

“I decided to seek support during a period when I was struggling both mentally and physically. The traumatic event I experienced, the ongoing stressful process, and my thyroid levels spiking significantly were all disrupting my life and daily routine. I felt so exhausted during the day that the more I rested and slept, the heavier and more tired my mind and body felt. The process I started with Psyc. Meltem made me feel much better, and almost none of my complaints remained. I now feel so good, refreshed, and energetic. What I admire most is her comprehensive and solution-focused approach. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone considering reaching out, and to those I know. I'm so glad our paths crossed.”

“When I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia, I fell into a deep depression. Managing stress was crucial for my disease, so we had regular online sessions. After a few sessions not only my worries and fears lessened, but my fibromyalgia is also much better. I definitely recommend her."

“My spouse and I had significant communication issues within our family. I believed some of them were related to my childhood experiences. I found this website and, reached out to Dr. Meltem. We had online sessions and practiced EMDR therapy, which provided very effective and quick recovery. My relationships with my spouse and those around me have improved. I've started to get to know myself better and show more compassion. My sleep has also improved. I recommend her to everyone.”
