Damla Palit, NCPS

Damla Palit is a United Kingdom based therapist with three years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, and depression. She views each person as the expert of their own story and focuses on helping clients identify and build on their existing strengths to address the challenges they face.

Damla uses a blend of approaches, selecting techniques that match each client's needs and goals. She works with issues such as attachment and abandonment concerns, caregiver stress, blended family and communication problems, domestic violence, grief, and family-of-origin dynamics.

Taking the first step toward a more fulfilling and happier life requires courage, and Damla aims to offer steady, respectful support throughout that process. Her practice emphasizes collaboration, practical coping strategies, and a pace determined by the client's priorities, helping people clarify goals and make sustainable changes.

Therapeutic approaches and flexible online care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist follows the client's lead and helps them explore their own solutions; it is often used for relationship, family, and identity-related concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress, and to improve coping skills. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and acceptance practices that can help people manage emotional reactivity and cultivate greater calm and clarity.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and Damla works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She will discuss options and adapt techniques as progress unfolds, honoring the client's pace and priorities.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility - clients can meet by video call or phone, or choose live chat or text-based messaging when that format better fits their life. These options make it easier to attend regular sessions, accommodate busy schedules or caregiving responsibilities, and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are not possible.
