Banu Ibaoglu Vaughn
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC, LMHC, CIRT, CCH
I approach spirituality not as ideology, but as lived experience: how you make meaning, how you relate to mystery, how you understand suffering, responsibility, and aliveness. Many people struggle privately with spiritual doubt, disillusionment, or the tension between psychological insight and faith. Others sense a spiritual dimension to their relational conflicts or life transitions but lack a language for it. I offer a space where these questions can be explored thoughtfully and without pressure — integrating psychological depth, relational awareness, and respect for the complexity of belief.
24 Years Experience
Online in Ankara, Turkey (Online Only)
Ankara is Turkey's capital and a major university city, home to several leading institutions including Middle East Technical University and Bilkent University, creating substantial demand for student counseling and young adult mental health services. As the seat of government and a hub for civil servants, diplomats, and public sector workers, the city has a more formal, institutional character than Istanbul, and its therapy culture is growing but relatively conservative. Private therapy practices are available across central districts, primarily in Turkish, with some English-language options catering to the diplomatic and international community. Common concerns among Ankara residents include work-related stress, academic pressure, and anxiety related to Turkey's ongoing political and economic climate.
