Dilek Bozan, BACP

Dilek Bozan regards counselling not as a pursuit of perfection but as a gradual movement toward accepting the whole self. She believes each person carries a unique story that often points to the roots of present difficulties in needs and relationships, and she uses that narrative as a starting place for therapy.

In sessions she explores how past experiences and significant events have shaped current patterns of thinking, feeling, and reacting, while also attending to the realities of the present. This approach creates space to identify new possibilities and, when appropriate, to reframe or rewrite parts of a life story so it fits more comfortably with who the person is now. She holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which reflects her professional training and commitment to ethical practice.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and focuses on clarifying personal values to guide meaningful action - useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy centers on empathy and respect, giving clients space to explore their experience at their own pace and often supporting greater self-acceptance and clarity. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions in relationships, helping people identify and reshape interaction patterns that contribute to distress in partnerships and family life.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dilek Bozan works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as therapy progresses.

Online therapy with a licensed professional offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place via video calls, by phone, through live chat, or with text-based messaging. This range of options helps people access support around work, family, and geographical constraints while maintaining continuity of care and tailoring contact styles to what feels most comfortable.
