About Dilek
Dilek Bozan is a counsellor who helps people facing phobias, anxiety and stress. She also supports those dealing with depression, grief, trauma and addiction. Dilek works in English and Turkish and practises in the United Kingdom.
She holds BACP accreditation which is shown as BACP. Dilek believes counselling is about accepting the whole self rather than chasing perfection. She listens for the personal story behind each problem and talks through how past events shape present reactions.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to make sense of difficult feelings and to find achievable steps forward. Her approach looks at family roots, close relationships and life events that influence behaviour. She uses methods that focus on emotions, acceptance, and mindfulness to help people notice patterns.
Conversations are practical and focused on what can be changed day to day. Dilek also helps with relationship and intimacy-related concerns, parenting stress, career strain and compassion fatigue. She addresses attachment issues, codependency, hoarding and other deep-seated patterns that can make life harder.
Clients can expect a steady, non-judgemental space to talk and to try different ways of coping. The aim is to open up new possibilities and, when useful, to reframe the story someone tells about themselves. Over time this can reduce distress and improve everyday functioning.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, avoidance and problems that keep someone stuck. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and empathy so the person feels understood and able to find their own answers. This approach supports people who need a calm, non-judgemental space to talk. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how emotions shape close relationships and can help with intimacy issues and attachment wounds.Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will explore goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they will choose methods that feel manageable and relevant to daily life rather than imposing a single strategy.
Online work is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when bandwidth allows. Phone sessions are a simpler option when a shorter check-in is needed or video would be difficult. Chat and messaging suit ongoing support, quick reflections between sessions, or people who prefer writing. These options aim to make therapy flexible and easier to fit around work and family commitments.
