About Dilek

Dilek Nakiboglu is a BACP counsellor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those facing addiction, grief, intimacy challenges and life changes. Dilek writes plainly and aims to make therapy feel like a real conversation rather than a lecture.

Her way of working focuses on how people relate to others and how those patterns shape daily life. She pays attention to boundaries, attachment and the small habits that keep someone stuck.

Background and approach

Sessions look at what has been helpful in the past and what might be changed to move forward. Dilek offers an initial session to map out what a person wants to work on and to cover important life history. That first meeting reviews family, childhood, work, health and key relationships so therapy can be shaped around real needs.

She discusses whether short-term or longer work will be most useful. She describes her style as empathetic and non-judgemental, aiming for an equal therapeutic relationship. Dilek encourages honest expression and supports clients to reconnect with their deeper goals and values.

Her training includes an MSc in Psychology from the University of East London and vocational counselling diplomas. Dilek has nine years of clinical experience and works with people from many backgrounds who are ready to commit to the work. Sessions generally happen weekly, with flexibility about length and focus.

The pace and goals are agreed together so each person can use their time in therapy in the way that suits them.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work pays close attention to relationships and patterns formed early in life. Online sessions can help a person spot where they repeat old habits in new relationships and practise different ways of relating. Client-centred therapy focuses on creating a respectful, non-judgemental space where the person sets the pace and topics. This approach helps people explore identity, values and honest expression at their own speed, including in chat or text-based formats.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the therapy itself. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs, then together they will test methods and adjust as they go. That collaborative process helps find what feels most helpful for the individual.

Online work offers flexible choices: video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions when bandwidth is limited, live chat for shorter check-ins, and text messaging for ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping a steady rhythm of weekly meetings or whatever frequency is agreed. Many people find the variety helps them stay engaged and apply what they learn between sessions.
