About me

I am a licensed Person-Centred/Integrative therapist in the UK with more than 10 years of professional work experience.

Born in Germany to Turkish/Muslim parentage, I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, depression and OCDs, autism and ADHD, addiction and eating disorders.

Key especially in my work are relationships: however we (want to) authentically relate to others and indeed towards ourselves. Be they LGBT+, vanilla, BDSM/kink-related, polyamorous or because of felt obstacles due to a more conservative cultural or religious upbringing - or indeed you having reasons to believe your upbringing lacked in either attention, love or nurture.

Either way, you dear reader, will be in my safe space, beyond any value judgements but instead assured confidentiality, safety and acceptance (Please refer to BetterHelp’s privacy policy for more information on confidentiality).

Now, being German, I don't do happy. But I do coping skills.* Those I'll forge with you accordingly through our work, me pointing you towards the things you can repeatedly (put into) practise by the homework(s) I give you (bit patronising, but it works), assuring you soon seeing the positive change you would like to.

You having reached out for help is already one of the most important steps to do: well done! Keep up the work, I'm here for any questions or concerns you might have.

Best,
Hal

Haldun is a great listener and comes from 3 different linguistic backgrounds and cultures. He is very relatable and compassionate, and I trust him. Very glad to have him on my screen and his brains, empathy and expertise on my side.

Hal is a great human, so easy to talk to and really knows what he's talking about. He's made me feel very safe and supported while I work through my sh*t and I'm very glad I got matched with him.

Written on Dec 02, 2025 after therapy with Haldun for 2 weeks on issues concerning lgbt, relationship issues, family conflicts, intimacy-related issues, sleeping disorders, parenting issues, and self esteem

Hal is a great therapist. I worked with him for a few weeks to guide me through a very difficult time. Not only was he very responsive but also offered insights and tipps and shared home work with me that really change the way I see things. He has a great way of bringing you back down to earth if the struggles take over too much. Thank you Hal!
