Hi, my name is Ozlem – I am a registered counsellor. I have been working with young people and adults for over a decade in the field of Mental Health and Wellbeing. I have work, volunteer and lived experiences across different countries. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting clients through thousands of hours of counselling.
I am passionate about working with people to promote their well-being by supporting them in discovering tools to navigate their challenges and also develop meaningful relationships with themselves and the people in their lives.
“Between stimulus and response there is a space.
In that space is our power to choose our response.
In our response lies our growth and our freedom.”
— Viktor E. Frankl
I support people who may be experiencing relationship and marital stress (couples counselling), anxiety, depression, stress management, self-esteem issues, life transitions, burn out, anger management, , loss and grief, work related challenges and parenting related challenges. You can think of me as someone in your corner, someone who is ready to listen without judgment, while also offering thoughtful and honest reflections to support real, lasting change.
My approach to therapy is warm, supportive, collaborative and trauma-informed. I bring honesty, curiosity, and a sense of humour into the room, and I invite clients to do the same. I believe meaningful change happens when we can look at ourselves with compassion rather than criticism. I aim to create a space where you can feel safe enough to be yourself, and curious enough to explore what may need to change. I’m invested in the work we do together and approach therapy as a collaborative process.
I draw on a range of evidence-based approaches and integrate them in my work, including CBT, ACT, mindfulness, RLT, IFS/parts work, the Gottman Method, SFBT and a person-centred framework. Rather than a one-size-fits-all model, our work is shaped around what feels most helpful and meaningful for you. This means we can work both practically and reflectively helping you understand patterns, build skills, and create lasting change.
I also lead social and emotional learning workshops in primary and secondary schools across Victoria. Supporting students with wide range of topics from friendship challenges, self-esteem, leadership skills, managing anger, peer support, emotional regulation skills, resilience, empathy, respect, and inclusion, confidence building and self-awareness, communication and assertiveness and building healthy boundaries.
I love adventure and new experiences. My favourite pianist is Ludovico Einaudi, I had the pleasure of listening to him play at the Arts Centre, Melbourne. I passionately love chocolate, mangoes and frozen berries. I trained in martial arts for a decade giving me a black belt in Taekwondo, using my body to move and relax releases stress. My current love is table tennis, the little white ball comes with a lot of fun and laughter. I speak in English and Turkish Fluently.
Therapy offers a space to better understand yourself, heal old patterns, and build healthier ways of relating, both internally and with others. Clients often report feeling grounded, self-respecting, and emotionally connected in their relationships. Rather than quick fixes, the work focuses on lasting change through self-awareness, compassion, and practical relational tools.
You don’t have to navigate challenges alone. If you feel I might be a good fit and this resonates with you I welcome you to get in touch.

I am an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker who supports clients throughout their reproductive journeys and the challenges that may arise along the way.
I work with young people and adults experiencing anxiety, depression and trauma. I am neuroaffirming and work to support people in navigating ADHD and Autism.
I am also passionate about empowering people to make informed reproductive choices and helping them navigate infertility, birth trauma, perinatal loss (including stillbirth, miscarriage, and termination), abortion grief, adoption, perinatal mental health concerns, and the transition to parenthood. I work hard to cultivate a trusting, authentic, and collaborative therapeutic relationship to support meaningful and sustainable treatment goals.
“You are not alone in your struggles. With support and treatment, you will get better.”
I am a warm and thoughtful therapist supporting teens and adults with a wide range of mental health and life challenges. I work with people experiencing stress, low mood, anxiety, identity questions, relationship and family conflict, grief and loss, and major life changes such as separation, divorce, career shifts, and parenting transitions.
I have experience supporting young people and adults with coping skills, emotional regulation, suicidal thoughts, mood disorders, racial and cultural identity, and gender and sexuality diversity. I offer a calm, non-judgemental space where people can feel heard and understood, and where we can gently make sense of what is going on.
My approach is practical, compassionate, and collaborative. I focus on helping people build insight, confidence, and skills so they can move through life with more steadiness and self trust.
Perinatal support
I support individuals who want to lead fulfilling lives in which their reproductive choices are embraced and celebrated. For many, the imagined future can become clouded by reproductive loss, infertility, depression or anxiety during pregnancy and postpartum, or a difficult transition to parenthood. I am here to help you move through these challenges and reconnect with a sense of wellness and stability in your reproductive journey.
I bring over a decade of experience working in a public maternity hospital with pregnant people experiencing perinatal mental health difficulties; supporting non-binary clients seeking abortion care; working with couples engaged in adoption; and assisting parents to navigate post-separation parenting arrangements in non-profit organisations.
My practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming and neurodiversity affirming. I am particularly passionate about supporting non-binary clients through their reproductive experiences. I draw on a range of therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Interpersonal Psychotherapy, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, and Positive Psychology.
Clients often describe feeling grounded and emotionally regulated. I will meet you where you are with calmness, compassion, positivity, and hope.
Outside of work, I am a proud mother of two children and a foster carer to a Labrador Retriever puppy. I am a dedicated yoga enthusiast and enjoy making candles and experimenting with aromatherapeutic oils in my spare time. I identify as an Asian, neurotypical, cisgender woman.

I come to The Therpay Hub with years of experience working in clinics in the Inner West.

I work at The Therapy Hub a combination of remote and in the office. (Mostly remote at the moment). Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays

I am a registered counsellor. I have been working with adolescents, young adults and adults for over ten years.
I consider the role of counsellor to be a privilege. Humour is the biggest strength I bring to the counselling space.
I am particularly interested in Men’s mental health and strive to create a safe space for open discussions around feelings, emotions and challenges that men face. The quality of our working relationship has a significant impact on the counselling process. We will work collaboratively to help increase your self-awareness of your relationship with yourself and others and explore any obstacles preventing you from living your best life by helping you develop the skills to achieve it.
Although various counselling modalities exist, I will use a combination of approaches, including person-centred (client-led), solution-focused, and CBT.
At times you may laugh with me, and more often than not, you will laugh at me…but it’s all part of the fun. In my downtime, I enjoy a hike in the middle of nowhere, my martial arts class, drawing if I am not doing some woodwork or learning about the latest tech gadgets.
“We don’t know what we don’t know. That’s where counselling can help shed light on what we can change. As Andy Andrews said, ‘Every good thing that has happened in your life happened because something changed.'”

I’m a psychology student with a strong interest in mental health and supporting people as they begin their therapy journey. I understand that taking the first step can feel daunting, and I’m passionate about helping clients feel comfortable, informed, and supported while finding the right fit.
I’m eager to learn, grow, and contribute to the team with a thoughtful and compassionate approach. When I’m not studying or at the clinic, you’ll usually find me swimming or attempting to play tennis (emphasis on attempting).
I’m a dedicated psychologist with a robust background in psychology and a deep commitment to fostering the mental well-being of individuals, particularly young people.
My extensive experience covers a broad spectrum of psychological issues, enabling me to effectively address diverse mental health challenges and offer personalised support to clients in a culturally sensitive and neurodivergent-affirming manner. I integrate a trauma-informed and intersectional framework into my practice.
With a compassionate and empathetic approach, my focus is on helping clients navigate their emotional well-being, fostering positive growth, and achieving a high quality of care. I utilise a variety of modalities and collaborate with clients to choose the best approach, drawing from methods such as Narrative Therapy, Trauma-focused CBT, Internal Family Systems, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Complicated Grief Therapy, and Family Therapy.
”I am passionate about supporting young people and their families on their journey toward mental wellness!”

The director of The Therapy Hub and host of the podcast This Complex Life
Welcome. I help individuals and couples want to be happy, confident, and live meaningfully. Sometimes we’re weighed down by anxiety, stress, depression or trauma. School, work, relationships, identity, and/or self-esteem issues can make life difficult to enjoy. This can often leave us feeling stuck.
Life can be tough. I understand, and I’m here to help. Together we’ll figure out who you are, who you want to be, and how to get you there.
I work as a couple and individual therapist, using EMDR Therapy intensives, Gottman Couples Therapy Marathon intensives as well as regular weekly or fortnightly sessions.
I incorporate a range of techniques such as Gottman Couples Therapy, ACT, CBT, EMDR and mindfulness in my work to support you in this process.
What else can I tell you about myself? I’m a little bit of a nerd and don’t take myself too seriously – life’s too short! I’m your classic animal lover, especially dogs. I love the great outdoors – hiking and camping (except I hate mosquitoes!)
My approach to therapy is direct, yet genuine and supportive. I have a sense of humour about myself, and I encourage my clients to adopt the same attitude. I am incredibly enthusiastic and I am excited to work together and create meaningful and lasting change in your life.
Everything we talk about is just between the people in the room (unless there are safety concerns, I’ll explain all that to you in our first session). Think of me as your trusted confidant. Someone who is ready to listen, never judge – but also be honest with you in order to bring forward positive change.
You can learn more about me on my podcast This Complex Life or my YouTube channel
‘’I’m 100% invested in this process. I am passionate about helping people feel understood and heard. Overcome past painful experiences and helping couples and families increase connection with one another.’’
