About Damla
Damla Palit is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing anxiety, stress, relationship strain and grief. She works with individuals coping with trauma and abuse as well as those dealing with depression. Damla writes in a straightforward way and focuses on helping people take the next small step when life feels overwhelming.
She approaches each person as the expert of their own story and looks for strengths to build on.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and practical. Damla aims to help people notice patterns, try out new responses, and make changes that feel manageable. Her background includes three years of work in mental health settings.
She holds NCPS, which is given in the United Kingdom and is listed as her credential. That experience has brought practical time helping people with family problems, communication issues and the stress of caregiving. Damla uses a mix of methods suited to the person in front of her rather than a single fixed style.
She draws on client-centred ways of listening, elements of cognitive behavioural approaches, mindfulness practices and psychodynamic ideas about past patterns. People who want straightforward, steady support often find this approach helpful. Sessions aim to be calm and focused, with steps you can try between meetings.
Damla can provide help in English or Turkish for those who prefer either language.
Approaches online and how they help
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting conversation so people feel heard and can find their own answers. It helps when someone wants non-judgemental support to sort out feelings and decide next steps.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. It uses simple exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and develop different behaviours, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Damla will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and choose techniques that suit those needs. This is a collaborative process where plans are adjusted as things change.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow more face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be better when less bandwidth is available, and text or chat can fit into a busy day or offer brief check-ins. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and daily life.
