The Yeditepe University Hospital Department of Psychology
bases its approach on a holistic perspective. This holistic approach
incorporates both body and mind. It is widely recognized that physical problems
can benefit from psychological support just as much as mental difficulties.
That is why our team, composed of specialist clinical psychologists and experts
in various specialties, supports other units at the Yeditepe University
Hospital in individual and group programs. We are advancing medical treatment
with evidence-based psychological support programs.
As the Yeditepe University Hospital Psychology Department
we offer both short- and long-term adult psychotherapy services provided by
specialist clinical psychologists. Our specialists in adult psychology listen
to you and develop a treatment plan in line with your needs.

One of the most critical issues in mental health is
healthy family relations. Family or couples therapy aims to make a difference
and strengthen relations within the family.
Family therapy deals with couples’ relationship issues, intergenerational problems, behavioral problems
in children, sibling problems, and chronic disease situations. When required,
the unit also provides child-focused family therapy to parents. Family therapy
is carried out at the Yeditepe University Hospital by specially trained
psychologists.
We offer Psychological Support Programs integrated into
ongoing medical treatment as a way of reviewing the lifestyle habits and
choices that may underlie a patient’s physical condition. This supports a
process of raising awareness based on patients’ thought – feeling – behavior
cycles to encourage conscious choices for a healthy life. Individualized
applications are employed to help patients make progress, increase treatment
motivation and protect patient wellbeing.

a group environment.

Department aiming to respond practically to the most commonly encountered
issues in day to day life. Examples of subjects that are covered include:

Our team believes that mental and physical health are two
halves of an inseparable whole. Therefore, we attach great importance to the
provision of the most suitable psychological support for patients diagnosed
with cancer and their families during and after the treatment period.
Cancer diagnosis, surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation
therapy are psychologically, socially and physically challenging processes.
This can lead to psychological difficulties such as anxiety disorders,
depressive feelings, adjustment problems, and changes in personality traits.
Our psychologists work within a framework of specialized psycho-oncology in
order to give patients and their families’ mental, emotional and functional
support during a critical period, aiming to improve their quality of life.
That is why our first discussion with patients at
Yeditepe University Hospital who are going to receive treatment at our
department aims firstly to understand them, to evaluate their condition
together, and to choose the best support program for their individual situation
and needs. This can incorporate individual psychotherapy, family support or
group support. Studies show that the provision of psychological support to
cancer patients and their families serves to make the treatment process
significantly more comfortable and relaxed. That is why we stand side by side
with our cancer patients all the way, not just in terms of medical treatment
but also from the psychological perspective.
