Our 8-year-old son began experiencing psychosomatic stomach pains before school. Dr. Duygu discovered through play therapy that he was processing our family's recent move from another country. Her family sessions helped us all adjust, and she taught him 'belly breathing' techniques that made the pains disappear entirely.
