Hello. I’m Dr. Çisem Gürel.
I’m a psychologist who works with children, teens, and adults. I’m delighted to offer my psychological and academic counseling services in both Turkish and English at the Psychological Counseling Hub.
I obtained my PhD in Preventive Mental Health Care at the University of Amsterdam. As a psychologist, I’m trained in Rogerian therapy, REBT, SFBT, Schema therapy, and CBT.
I’m registered in Het Kwaliteitsregister Jeugd (SKJ).
I obtained my Master’s degrees in Psychology & Child Development and Education at the University of Amsterdam (ResMa; cum laude) and Psychological Counseling and Guidance at Boğaziçi University (high honors).
I’m currently working at Erasmus University Rotterdam and Utrecht University. Previously, I worked as a visiting researcher at Stanford University and Southampton University in topics related to growth mindset and self-knowledge and published in top-tier journals.
With 15+ years of experience as a psychologist and scientific researcher, I support individuals and groups from different developmental groups to flourish.
Whether you or your loved ones are going through a difficult time, facing challenges, or seeking personal growth, I am here to support you . So, whether you prefer to communicate in Turkish or English, please feel free to contact me to embark on a journey towards thriving and well-being.
