About Dilek
Dilek Bozan is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns. She also supports those dealing with loss, trauma, addictions and intimacy issues. Her work includes practical help for parenting strains, career stress, anger and self-esteem challenges. Dilek speaks English and Turkish and practises in the United Kingdom.
She approaches therapy as a chance to understand the whole person rather than aiming for perfection. Sessions look at how past experiences shape present reactions. Conversations focus on everyday problems and on finding ways to respond differently when old patterns cause pain.
Dilek uses methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centred work to help people notice what matters to them and take steps towards those values. She also draws on emotionally-focused and trauma-informed ways of working when relationships or past harm are central concerns.
Her style is collaborative and straightforward. People can expect reflective listening, gentle questioning and practical exercises to try between sessions. The aim is to open up new ways of coping and to build small habits that make day-to-day life easier.
Dilek is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has six years of experience in therapeutic settings. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Client-centred therapy focuses on being heard and understood; it gives space for people to make sense of their own experience at their own pace. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people reach for stronger, more connected ways of relating.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and test what fits best. This is a collaborative process that draws on your goals, preferences and what feels most helpful in sessions.
If you are considering online work, confirm the available session formats before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow a quicker check-in during a short break. It can also make it simpler to access emotionally focused or trauma-informed work from home or other quieter surroundings, or to choose a session that does not require video. Confirming formats and practical arrangements with the therapist helps ensure sessions suit your routine and needs.
