Banu Ibaoglu Vaughn
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC, LMHC, CIRT, CCH
Many of the women I work with are remarkably brilliant, yet they often struggle to own that brilliance while organizing their lives around everyone else's needs. This can lead to an exhausting cycle of swinging between anger, depression, and silence, usually driven by a critical inner voice that questions your right to take up space. I am deeply interested in women's creativity and vulnerability, helping you reclaim the desires and expressions you may have hushed to keep the peace. We work on reconnecting with your own voice and finding the laughter that returns when you stop self-interrupting and finally allow yourself to be tired or uncomfortable without losing your sense of worth. This shift allows confidence and genuine presence to become the foundation of how you show up in your life and your relationships.
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.
