ABOUT » TEAM

Hi, I'm Ozlem

I am a registered counsellor. I bring over a decade of experience supporting young people and adults with their mental health and wellbeing across multiple countries, and I've provided thousands of hours of counselling along the way.

I'm passionate about helping clients discover the tools to navigate life's challenges while building meaningful relationships with themselves and others.

Connect

We offer compassionate, person-centred support in a safe, welcoming space.

Discover

We help you gain clarity around your thoughts, feelings, and experiences.

Grow

We support positive change and personal growth at a pace that feels right for you.

I help individuals and couples work through relationship stress, anxiety and life transitions, with a particular focus on self-compassion and parenting challenges.

I draw on CBT, ACT, mindfulness, Relational Life Therapy, Internal Family Systems (parts work), the Gottman Method and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, working from a person-centred framework tailored to you.

My approach is warm, supportive, collaborative and trauma-informed. I create a safe space where you feel comfortable being yourself, while staying curious together about the changes you want to make — always with self-compassion rather than criticism. I also lead social and emotional learning workshops in Victorian schools.
