Getting to know Ayse Dulger

Hi there, I'm Ayse! I help adults who seem strong on the outside but feel anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or not enough inside. Using trauma-focused approaches such as EMDR, ART, Schema Therapy, and IFS-informed therapy, I offer a warm, culturally responsive space to heal, grow, and reconnect with your authentic self. My focus I support adults affected by complex trauma, PTSD, attachment wounds, and difficult family dynamics. Many of my clients struggle with people-pleasing, perfectionism, low self-worth, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed. Our work focuses on creating safety, trust, and healthier ways of relating to themselves and others. My approach My approach is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed.Together, we create a personalized treatment plan using a holistic approach. We will work at a safe pace to heal, build skills, and reconnect with your authentic self. My communication style My communication style is warm, honest, and compassionate. I listen without judgment, ask thoughtful questions, and offer gentle but direct feedback. I create a safe space where you can speak openly, feel understood, and explore difficult experiences at your own pace. My journey to mental healthcare My journey began in Turkey, where I studied psychology and supported individuals and families through the Ministry of Family and Social Policies. After moving to the U.S., I earned my MSW and became a therapist. My experiences with change, resilience, and cultural identity inspired my passion for trauma-focused care. My goals for you We identify clear, meaningful goals based on what you want to change in your life. I help you uncover patterns, process underlying trauma, and practice new skills between sessions. We regularly review your progress and adjust treatment so each step remains practical, personalized, and connected to your needs.
