About Damla
Damla Palit welcomes people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to begin. She writes in a warm, straightforward way and focuses on helping clients with stress, anxiety, relationship tension, family conflict, grief, trauma and abuse, and depression. Damla makes space for a person's story and begins by listening to what matters most to them.
She works from the idea that each person knows their life best. Damla uses Client-Centered Therapy, which means she follows the client’s pace and priorities in sessions. She also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness ideas to offer practical ways to manage difficult thoughts and feelings.
In practice, sessions are conversational and steady. Damla helps people identify patterns that cause distress and then tries small, realistic steps to change those patterns. Mindfulness exercises are offered when someone wants tools to calm racing thoughts. Cognitive strategies are used to test unhelpful beliefs and build coping skills.
Damla has three years of professional experience and holds an NCPS credential. She works from the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English and Turkish. She does not take international clients at this time.
To begin, people are invited to use the service Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a time that fits with the therapist’s availability. Damla aims to support steady progress while respecting each person’s pace.
How these approaches work in online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s experience and priorities. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and follows the client’s pace so goals emerge from the client’s concerns. This style is helpful for people who want a steady, respectful space to make sense of hurt or change.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It involves identifying unhelpful thought patterns and trying small practical experiments to shift them, which can help with anxiety, depression and stress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention exercises and grounding skills to reduce rumination and manage intense emotions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Damla will discuss options and help decide what fits a person’s needs, goals and preferences, and this is a collaborative process that can change over time.
Session formats are not specified in the profile, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can attend from wherever they are in the UK. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises like mindful breathing or CBT worksheets to work well over distance, depending on which formats are offered.
