Melis Saygısever

After graduating from Nişantaşı University with a degree in Psychology (taught in English), I completed my master’s degree in Clinical Psychology (with thesis) at Üsküdar University. I completed my clinical internship at Bursa Mustafa Kemalpaşa State Hospital, working alongside two psychologists and one psychiatrist. For the past three years, I have been working with children, adolescents, and adult clients on psychological issues such as eating addictions and disorders, social phobia, anxiety disorders, panic disorder, depression, OCD, parenting styles, and exam anxiety. I provide my clients with structured, evidence-based therapies tailored to individual needs, especially within the framework of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). My aim in psychotherapy is to support clients in developing emotional awareness, strengthening self-esteem, and enhancing psychological resilience. I design the treatment process as a holistic approach that creates a safe and compassionate space, blending scientific knowledge with human warmth. In my articles for Psychology Times Turkey and UK, I address current topics such as developmental psychology, emotion regulation, parent-child relationships, the psychological reflections of eating behaviors, exam anxiety, and the impact of modern life on mental health. My writings offer informative and inspiring content that invites readers on a journey of inner discovery and awareness. My professional mission is to continuously learn while adhering to ethical values, raise social awareness, and contribute to both individual and collective mental health. My motto: "Every person is a story waiting to be heard."
