I completed my undergraduate studies in Psychology in English with a full scholarship at the International Final University. Throughout my academic journey, I gained valuable cross-cultural experiences that significantly enriched my professional development: as a volunteer intern at the El Hayyah Center in Egypt, I examined the cultural dimensions of psychology; as an observer intern at the A.M. Granov Center for Radiology and Surgical Technologies in St. Petersburg, Russia, I had the opportunity to study clinical processes related to the mind–body connection; and at Manisa Mental Health Hospital in Turkey, I acquired direct clinical experience that enabled me to integrate theory with practice. In addition, I completed training in Metacognitive Therapy (MCT), which enhanced my competence in contemporary therapeutic approaches. I further strengthened my academic productivity with a published article examining the relationship between compassion and burnout among hematologists and oncologists. Looking ahead, I aim to pursue graduate studies and research in clinical neuropsychology, deepening this line of work and combining my international experiences with both scientific literature and clinical applications to develop a multidisciplinary perspective and contribute meaningfully to the field.
