Time exists in order that everything doesn't happen all at once, and space exists so that it doesn't all happen to you.

About

Cansu Cangir

While studying at Turkey Izmir University in the Psychology Department, I participated in research on discrimination, social marginalization, and exclusion. I completed clinical psychology internships at Istanbul Vienna Sen Jorj Hospital and Balikli Greek Hospital in Istanbul. I attended addiction-related training during my internships. My university experience was filled with volunteer work with LGBTI, refugee, and human rights organizations. I also worked with refugee children at the Refugee and Migration Research Center. Currently, I am a member of Amnesty International Turkey and Ireland, and I am a human rights activist.

 

In 2017, after contributing as a volunteer to a research project at Koc University, I moved to Dublin. I completed a Master's in Applied Psychology at Dublin Business School in 2021, with a thesis on trauma and the impact of the 2011 Turkey/Van earthquake on trauma and belief in a just world. I received psychotherapy supervision from clinical psychologist Sirin Ugurlu Ates and Associate Professor Dr. Billur Ornek.

 

As of 2022, I am working at a private company. I lead initiatives focused on workplace well-being as part of the Engagement Team and as a Mental Health Ally. The topics of psychological resilience and post-traumatic growth are particularly interesting to me, and I arrange workshops on these topics. I am a member of the Irish Psychological Society and do face-to-face therapy at Inner Voice Dublin in addition to online therapy.

 

My training includes cognitive-behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, narrative therapy, play therapy with children, brief solution-focused therapy, and MMPI. Using these therapy approaches, I work in treating anxiety disorders, depression, self-confidence, socio-cultural adaptation processes, and post-traumatic stress disorder.
