About Bilkan
Bilkan Kilicer is a counsellor with six years of experience and a BACP accreditation. She works with people who feel stuck, anxious, or worn down by life changes. Bilkan aims to make starting therapy less daunting by offering steady listening and calm support.
She follows an integrative psychodynamic perspective, which helps people look at both current problems and the ways earlier experiences still influence their feelings. That approach is used alongside practical methods that focus on thoughts, emotions and coping skills.
Background and approach
Sessions tend to focus on building understanding and noticing patterns that keep people feeling the same way. Bilkan pays attention to trauma, grief, relationship struggles and anxiety, and helps people take small steps toward change. She works at a pace that feels manageable for each person.
Her style blends empathy with clear, practical conversations. People can expect to be heard without judgement and to have space to reflect on what matters to them. Bilkan aims to help people find ways to feel steadier and more capable in everyday life.
She offers a collaborative approach to setting goals and choosing methods that fit each person. That might mean exploring past experiences, learning skills to manage strong emotions, or practising new ways of relating to others.
How therapeutic approaches work online with this counsellor
Bilkan uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment‑Based Therapy as core ways of working online. CBT focuses on noticing and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, which can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Attachment‑Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and how early bonds affect how people connect and feel in close relationships.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Bilkan will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and will try different ways of working until a good fit is found. That means sessions can blend understanding past experiences with practical skills for managing strong feelings.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text‑based messaging. Video calls allow face‑to‑face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when you need a quicker check‑in, while chat and messaging let people reflect in writing and fit support around busy days. These options give flexibility so therapy can fit work, caregiving and travel commitments.
