Idil Altintas
I am a trainee counsellor and a graduate member of the British Psychological Society.
I began my academic journey in the Psychology Department at Bilkent University, followed by completing my master's degree in Clinical Psychology Practice at Kingston University. I am currently furthering my professional development by pursuing counselling diploma training at The Gestalt Centre London.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Idil’s energy is incredibly calming. The moment she walks into the room, you can feel her grounded presence. I always feel safe with her: there’s never any rush. Working with someone so fully present makes therapy a completely different experience.
London, 2024
I used to get stuck in the past for years. With Idil’s approach, I’ve learned to focus on the here and now. Therapy completely shifted my life. Instead of losing myself in the past, I’m finally living in the present.
London, 2025
I first came to Idil with anxiety. Her approach and the breathing techniques she taught me helped so much. Now when panic arises, I know how to ground myself again. She gave me tools that truly work.
Turkey, 2025
Idil is both deeply knowledgeable and highly intuitive. Sometimes she understands things I haven’t even said out loud. Through body-awareness work, I discovered how my emotions show up physically. The therapy feels profound, yet also very practical.
