Mehtap Sahin
I am a licensed therapist committed to helping people uncover the patterns that hold them back and develop healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and living. My approach is collaborative, blending evidence-based methods like CBT and DBT with creative techniques tailored to each individual.

I believe therapy is a space for self-discovery and growth, where clients can learn to navigate challenges with resilience, build meaningful connections, and create lasting change in their lives.
First session
In our first session, we’ll focus on getting to know each other and building a comfortable, supportive space for you to share what brings you to therapy. I’ll ask about your history, current concerns, and goals, while also giving you the chance to ask questions and share what feels most important. Together, we’ll begin creating a plan that feels collaborative, tailored to your needs, and focused on the changes you’d like to see in your life.
Strengths
What stands out about my approach is the balance of structure and creativity. I integrate evidence-based methods like CBT and DBT with tailored strategies that meet each client where they are, whether through practical skill-building, reflective dialogue, or creative techniques. Clients often share that they feel truly heard, supported, and equipped with tools they can use beyond our sessions—leading to meaningful, lasting change in their daily lives.
Ideal clients
I am best positioned to serve clients who feel stuck in unhelpful patterns, struggle with anxiety, depression, or self-doubt, and want to build healthier ways of relating to themselves and others. I also work well with individuals seeking practical coping skills, greater emotional awareness, and a deeper sense of balance and resilience in their daily lives.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients uncover unhelpful thought patterns, challenge them, and replace them with healthier perspectives while practicing new behaviors. I adapt the approach to each client—using creative, engaging methods with children and structured tools like thought records and mindfulness with adults. My goal is to empower clients with practical skills they can apply outside sessions to build resilience and lasting change.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I use Mindfulness-Based Treatment to help clients develop present-moment awareness, acceptance, and emotional regulation. My goal is to help clients cultivate calm, reduce reactivity, and apply mindfulness skills in daily life for lasting well-being.
