About Dilek

Dilek Bozan is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, panic and a wide range of related concerns. She works with issues such as addictions, grief, depression, relationship strain, parenting pressures and feelings of emptiness. She also supports people coping with trauma, anger, self-esteem problems and life changes.

Her approach is practical and person-centred. She listens to each person’s story and looks at how past experiences shape reactions today. Sessions focus on understanding what matters to the client and finding manageable ways to respond to difficult feelings.

Dilek uses a blend of methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centred work, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, mindfulness and trauma-focused approaches. These methods are used to help people notice thoughts and feelings, build calm, and practice new ways of relating to themselves and others.

She explains things in plain language and helps set small, achievable steps between sessions. Conversations can include looking at family of origin issues, attachment and patterns such as codependency or avoidance, and practical coping strategies for everyday life.

Dilek trained and works in the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration. She offers sessions in English and Turkish and uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches you can access online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed and to take actions that reflect personal values. It is often used for anxiety, panic and difficulties that come from trying to avoid strong emotions. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding; the counsellor offers empathy and reflection so people can explore their own solutions and feel heard. Emotionally-Focused Therapy centres on recognising and shifting emotional patterns in relationships and close connections, which can be useful when attachment or intimacy issues are present.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dilek will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their needs and goals. That choice can evolve over time as progress and priorities change, and the therapist uses the approaches together rather than relying on one fixed method.

Confirm the exact session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into busy lives by removing travel time and allowing sessions around work or family commitments. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed or sessions where being on camera is optional, depending on the agreed format. Registered or accredited professionals can help weigh practical choices so therapy fits into everyday routines.
