Welcome. I’m Deniz. When we work together, you’ll find more than a therapist—you’ll have a thoughtful ally.

My path to mental health began in humanitarian aid, witnessing stories of loss, resilience, and hope across cultures. Today, I walk with clients through grief, trauma, and identity reclamation.

I support those carrying profound losses—bereavement, a pet who once rescued them from loneliness, life changed by cancer or chronic illness, fractured family ties, or longing for a homeland they can’t return to. Many straddle cultures, faiths, or generations. Sensitive and often misunderstood, they long for depth, connection, and a place where their story isn’t pathologized.

I offer trauma- and grief-informed care through a cross-cultural lens, blending mindful presence, body-based awareness, and depth-oriented conversation with creative exploration.

I see people as more than the problems they face, honoring the resilience and uniqueness they bring. Each insight, memory, and story becomes a thread—woven into narratives of possibility, hope, and renewal. From these, we shape grounded, life-giving tools to help you return home to yourself—rooted in your values, upheld by your dignity.

I am a neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ affirming provider.

Many of the people I support are educators, entrepreneurs, creatives, scientists, healers, and community builders—those who carry a lot, feel deeply, and are ready for a new way of being.
