About Dilek
Dilek Bozan is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has six years of clinical experience. She works with young adults and others facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family difficulties, trauma, grief, addiction and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
Dilek focuses on how past experiences shape current reactions. She talks through family of origin issues, attachment and abandonment themes, and how those patterns affect day-to-day life. Conversations often look at relationship patterns, commitment and control issues, and how people relate to themselves and others.
Her sessions use practical, evidence-informed approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy and mindfulness-based methods. People can expect a straightforward style that explores thoughts, feelings and the behaviours that follow. Work may include noticing how values influence choices and practising simple mindfulness skills.
Dilek also addresses specific concerns such as parenting, fatherhood issues, career stress, ADHD, eating difficulties, anger and hoarding. She offers space to talk through grief, guilt, shame and the impacts of trauma and abuse.
She provides therapy in English and Turkish and works from the United Kingdom. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange an initial session. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How Dilek uses therapeutic approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values; it is useful for anxiety, stress and life transitions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on understanding emotions in relationships and can help with intimacy, attachment and communication difficulties. Mindfulness-based methods teach simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve present-moment awareness, which suits stress, depression and trauma-related symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different methods with the client and decide together which fits best given the person’s goals, preferences and challenges. That collaborative selection can change as therapy progresses.
The listing does not state specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around study, work and busy schedules. They can also allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, or be chosen to avoid travel on workdays. Registered or accredited professionals tailor pacing and exercises so therapy fits day-to-day life rather than disrupt it.
