About Bilkan
Bilkan Kilicer is a counsellor with six years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation, and she offers a thoughtful, steady presence for people who are feeling overwhelmed. Bilkan aims to create a calm space where someone can talk through what is happening now and how past events might still affect them today.
She often supports people who have been through trauma and abuse, and those coping with anxiety, depression, sleep problems or low self-esteem.
How Bilkan works
Bilkan also helps with relationship and intimacy-related concerns, parenting stress, career strain, grief, anger, and life changes such as separation or health challenges. She is comfortable discussing issues linked to identity and LGBT concerns. Bilkan draws on several approaches to shape each session.
She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult feelings and focus on values-based action. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used when practical skills and clearer thinking can reduce distress. Attachment-informed work looks at how early relationships influence current patterns.
Her style is warm and patient. Sessions are paced to suit the individual, with attention to what feels manageable. She listens without judgment and offers reflections that aim to increase self-understanding and choice.
Bilkan offers consultations in English and accepts international clients. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Bilkan uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take small steps based on what matters to them. This approach can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.She also draws on Attachment-Based ideas to examine how early relationships shape current patterns of relating and emotional responses. That work can help when people notice repeated problems in relationships or struggle with trust and closeness.
Finding the right fit is part of the process. Bilkan will discuss these approaches with each person and agree what to try first, adapting methods as goals and preferences become clearer. The therapist and client make choices together about pace and focus.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make counselling more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit shorter updates, written reflection, or times when typing feels more comfortable. These options let people fit therapy into work, family life, or other routines.
