About the specialist

Το πιο σημαντικό για εμάς είναι η δημιουργία ενός χώρου συνάντησης χωρίς προκαθορισμένες απαντήσεις, μακριά από παγιωμένες πεποιθήσεις. Είναι η αποδοχή της ιδιαιτερότητας του υποκειμένου που θα μας επισκεφτεί. Η από κοινού δημιουργία ενός πλαισίου ασφάλειας και εμπιστοσύνης, όπου θα αναπνεύσει και θα εκφραστεί το προσωπικό αίτημα, μέσα από έναν τρόπο ενικό.

Διανοίγουμε έτσι την προοπτική ρήξης με το πεπρωμένο, τον εξαναγκασμό της επανάληψης, την οδύνη του συμπτώματος, την δυσφορία που αναστέλλει τη ζωή.

Έτσι, κάνοντας τομές στις προκαταλήψεις (φύλου, ηλικίας, θρησκευτικών και πάσης φύσεως κοινωνικών επιταγών) διεκδικούμε σταδιακά τον ορίζοντα της προσωπικής επιθυμίας, μέσα από διαφορετικές επιλογές.

Ο Καλυβίτης Παναγιώτης είναι Κλινικός Ψυχαναλυτικής κατεύθυνσης (λακανικού προσανατολισμού). Είναι πιστοποιημένο μέλος της Ελληνικής Εταιρείας Συμβουλευτικής. Έχει εκπαιδευτεί στο Κέντρο Ψυχαναλυτικών Ερευνών της Αθήνας, στο οποίο δραστηριοποιείται ενεργά σε διαλέξεις, ημερίδες, σεμινάρια, κλινικές βραδιές, εργαστήρια, καρτέλ, εποπτείες. Το πρόγραμμα του Κέντρου Ψυχαναλυτικών Ερευνών είναι εμπνευσμένο από το έργο της Section Clinique, της κλινικής διδασκαλίας η οποία ξεκίνησε την δεκαετία του ’70 στο Τμήμα Ψυχανάλυσης που ίδρυσε ο Jacques Lacan στο Πανεπιστήμιο Paris VIII.

Είναι αριστούχος απόφοιτος του τριετούς προγράμματος μετεκπαίδευσης Ψυχαναλυτική και Ψυχοδυναμική Συμβουλευτική Προσέγγιση, Τομέας Ψυχολογίας, CPS Arts & Psychotherapy.

Συμμετέχει σε κλινικές παρουσιάσεις, σε συνεργασία με το Ψυχιατρικό Τμήμα Ενηλίκων του Γενικού Νοσοκομείου Αθηνών "Γ. Γεννηματάς", ενώ εργάστηκε εθελοντικά στην Εταιρία EPAPSY - Association for Regional Development and Mental Health.

Είναι απόφοιτος του Παντείου Πανεπιστημίου και της Σχολής Σκηνοθεσίας Θεάτρου Ελεύθερο Σχήμα. Συνέχισε με μεταπτυχιακές σπουδές στο θέατρο στο Royal Holloway University of London (MA, Department of Drama & Theatre, pathway Playwriting) και στη συνέχεια στη Νέα Υόρκη, όπου διδάχτηκε την τεχνική The View Points System δίπλα στην Anne Bogart και το Siti Company, καθώς και την μέθοδο Suzuki Actors Training του Tadashi Suzuki.

Είναι μέλος της Εταιρίας Ελλήνων Σκηνοθετών.

Ασχολείται με την ψυχανάλυση και την ψυχοθεραπεία τα τελευταία δέκα χρόνια. Παράλληλα, ασχολείται με την συγγραφή θεατρικών έργων, γράφει ποίηση και σκηνοθετεί παραστάσεις. Το θεωρητικό του υπόβαθρο περιλαμβάνει όλες τις θεμελιωμένες ψυχοδυναμικές προσεγγίσεις, αλλά η κλινική του προσέγγιση είναι λακανικού προσανατολισμού. Ο άνθρωπος που θα αποφασίσει να μπει σε ανάλυση, θα μπει σε διαπραγματεύσεις με το ασυνείδητό του, την απόλαυσή του, το σύμπτωμα και την ασυνείδητη επιθυμία του.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
mental health

What it is

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a form of psychotherapy applied to problems such as depression, anxiety disorders, abuse, relationship and marriage problems, eating disorders and serious mental illness.The therapist emphasizes what is happening in the current life rather than the past and what led to the difficulties.

Approach

Identifying the distortions in a person's thinking that are causing problems and then examining these in the light of reality. Understanding the behaviour and motivations of others and using problem-solving skills to deal with difficult situations. Dealing with fears rather than avoiding them. Role-playing to better prepare for potentially problematic interactions with others. You become your own self-therapist.

How it could benefit you

Helps the individual to change dysfunctional thought patterns and behaviors. Improves your functioning and quality of life by helping to change patterns and behaviours. Teaches you to be your own self-therapist.

Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT)
mental health

What it is

It is a form of psychotherapy that teaches a person to identify negative thought patterns and change them. DBT reinforces the acceptance that all your thoughts are valid, as they are part of your life experiences and who you are. The person acts by doing the best they can for the moment. It is used for people with suicidal behavior, post-traumatic stress disorder, substance use disorder, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, ADHD, depression, anxiety.

Approach

DBT focuses on acceptance and change. It helps the person to get to know themselves better, to think about why they do what they do, without judgment. Replacing a negative behavior or habit with ones that can improve the quality of life. Dialectic is the idea that two different things can be true at the same time. At the same time as accepting yourself exactly as you are, comes the recognition of your effort to change.

How it could benefit you
