Psychology Research Center

It is recommended that you see a psychologist when you feel unhappy because of the psychological distress you are experiencing, or when this distress begins to negatively affect your work, school, or relationships.

Individuals can get psychological support through individual, couple or group psychotherapy. Together with your psychologist, you can decide on the type of psychotherapy that will benefit you most.

Psychotherapy sessions last 45-50 minutes.

The duration of psychotherapy varies according to the different needs of individuals. You can talk to your psychologist about the approximate length of time you need to continue psychotherapy to get the most out of psychotherapy.

Individuals may have different needs depending on the psychological distress they experience. While some psychological problems are reduced only by psychotherapy, both psychotherapy and drug treatment will be sufficient for some psychological problems, and only drug treatment for some psychological problems. You can decide during your meeting with our psychologist whether you can help more than a psychotherapy or treatment.

All matters are discussed between the client and the therapist will be confidential as long as you receive psychotherapy and afterwards. However, in cases of suicide, murder and child abuse, the confidentiality rule may be broken if necessary. You can get more information about privacy from your psychologist in the first session.

If you think you have an emergency or have thoughts of harming yourself or someone else, go to the nearest hospital's emergency department immediately.

Our studies on group therapies continue. Please write to isil.bilican@medeniyet.edu.tr for information.
