About Dilek
Counsellor Dilek Bozan is a BACP member with six years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, and issues such as parenting, anger and self-esteem. Sessions are offered in English and Turkish.
Dilek works in a conversational way. She listens to personal stories and looks at how past events affect present reactions. That can include patterns coming from attachment, abandonment or family of origin issues. The work may also cover practical concerns like career pressures, coping with life changes, or compassion fatigue.
Her practice draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy. These methods are used to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings, improve emotional responses, and make choices that match their values.
In sessions she explores what has shaped a person’s responses and what keeps certain patterns going. That might mean talking about commitment and control issues, codependency, or feelings of emptiness and guilt. There is also scope to address intimacy-related issues, eating concerns, hoarding and fatherhood issues when relevant.
People who choose to work with Dilek usually start by describing the problems that feel most urgent. From there she and the client plan sessions that focus on manageable steps and clearer understanding.

Approaches used in online counselling and what they involve
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and learn to act in ways that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and difficulty making changes.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on an open, non-directive conversation. The counsellor listens and reflects so the person can make sense of their feelings and choices.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at patterns in close relationships and how emotions shape connections. It is often used when intimacy or attachment issues are central concerns.
Working out the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options with the client and choose methods together based on needs, goals and personal preference. That choice may shift as the sessions progress.
Confirm the practical session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online counselling can help fit therapy into everyday life by saving travel time, allowing sessions around work hours, and making shorter check-ins possible when needed. It also lets people meet with a therapist who speaks their language even if they live elsewhere in the United Kingdom.
