The Psychological Counseling Unit is a support service that assists İstinye University students when they encounter a biopsychosocial condition that affects their well-being. The unit provides support for individual, social, or academic challenges, and also offers workshops and training programs.
All services provided by the Psychological Counseling Unit are free of charge and are available to our students as well as academic and administrative staff. The services offered by the unit include the following:
Our Psychological Counseling Unit is led by Clinical Psychologist Doğa Küçük. Applicants can receive psychological support through individual sessions to address issues that are challenging in their lives. Because challenges can vary from person to person, the process is tailored to each client; sessions last approximately 45 minutes. The therapy aims to help the client understand their difficulties, regulate their emotional processes, and develop more functional coping strategies.

The Psychological Counseling Unit carries out these events by assessing students’ needs and demands in the areas they have difficulties in. Depending on the need, experts on the subject are invited and events are organized with expert support.
The Psychological Counseling Unit writes series of articles based on experiences in life, in order to increase the awareness in students.
