Who is he?

Arif Eren AÇIKGÖZ

I continued my academic life after graduating from Elmadağ Anatolian High School in 2013. In 2014, I enrolled in the Psychology Department at Istanbul Beykent University. Due to my outstanding performance during my undergraduate studies, I was granted the right to take advanced courses, allowing me to complete my university education early as an honor student in 2017.

My academic journey is still ongoing. Throughout my university years, I received professional training in psychological testing and psychotherapy methods under the supervision of internationally renowned psychiatrists, both in Turkey and worldwide.
