Occupational therapy services for children in Alanya

Tuğçe Turunç Occupational Therapy Centre supports children in the everyday activities that matter to them and to their families — playing, eating, dressing, moving and taking part at school. We work in Alanya Oba, opposite Alkü Hospital, and we see English-speaking families.

What we work on

Sensory integration

We look at how your child takes in and organises sensory information — touch, movement, balance, sound and body awareness — and how this shows up in everyday life: getting dressed, sitting at a table, joining play, coping in busy places.

S.O.S. approach to feeding

Selective eating is rarely only about taste. We work on the sensory, motor and routine sides of mealtimes together with the family, moving step by step and without pressure on the child.

DIR Floortime

A relationship-based approach that follows your child’s own interests and builds communication through play, rather than drilling isolated skills.

Daily living and school readiness

Dressing, feeding, toileting, pencil and scissor use, attention, motor planning and classroom participation — the practical skills that make a child’s day easier.

How the process works

01

First conversation

You tell us what you are noticing at home, at nursery or at school. We explain whether an assessment makes sense and what it would involve.

02

Assessment

Your child is observed during play and everyday tasks rather than tested in isolation. We look at what supports participation and what gets in the way.

03

A plan you can use

You receive a clear picture of your child’s strengths and difficulties, with goals tied to real daily situations — not a diagnosis, and not a promise of a cure.

Frequently asked questions

Do you work with English-speaking families?

Yes. Sessions and family conversations can be held in English. Alanya has a large international community and we regularly work with families who do not speak Turkish.

Does my child need a diagnosis before coming?

No. An occupational therapist does not diagnose. Many families come simply because something in daily life is harder than expected — feeding, dressing, play, sleep, attention or school participation.

How long does an assessment take?

The first assessment usually takes about an hour, including time to talk with you. Afterwards you receive an explanation of what was observed and what could be worked on.

Where are you located?

Tuğçe Turunç Occupational Therapy Centre is in the Oba district of Alanya, in the Ofis 2020 business centre opposite Alkü Hospital. Families come from Tosmur, Kestel, Mahmutlar, Cikcilli and Konaklı.

Tuğçe Hanım’la oğlum 2,5 yaşındayken tanıştık. Onun verdiği ergoterapi seansları sayesinde çevre farkındalığı arttı, motor planlama becerileri gelişti, duyu hassasiyetleri azaldı. Ona çok minnettarız; bu süreçte bize çok yardımcı oldu. Gönülden teşekkür ederiz, oğlumuz gibi diğer çocukların da yolunu aydınlatacağına eminim.

Sevgili Tuğçe Hanım’la yolumuzun kesişmesine çok sevindim. 🙏 Kızımız yiyecekler konusunda çok seçiciydi, ön yargıları fazlaydı. Bu direnci Tuğçe Hanım’la kırdık; kahvaltılarımız, öğünlerimiz çeşitlendi sayesinde. Bizimle aynı durumda olan aileler varsa şiddetle tavsiye ederim. Emekleri ve yönlendirmeleri için teşekkür ederiz.

Tuğçe Hanım’la İstanbul’da yollarımız kesişti. Tam disiplinli, sevecen ve güven odaklı biri. Oğlumun merdiven inmekte, kalem tutmakta ve bazı hassas dokunuşlarda çekinmeleri vardı; çok olumlu yol kat ettiler. Seans bitiminde hangi konularda çalışıldığını, olumlu ve olumsuz geçen durumları, gelişme ve önerileri yazılı olarak göndermesi çok güzel bir uygulama. Müsait olduğu her vakit gönül rahatlığıyla aramalarınıza cevap veren, tam destek alabileceğiniz biri. Gönülden tavsiyemdir.
