About the specialist

Η Όλγα Τσιουραλίδου είναι Σύμβουλος Ψυχικής Υγείας και Ψυχοθεραπεύτρια με ισχυρό ακαδημαϊκό υπόβαθρο και πολυετή εμπειρία στην υποστήριξη ατόμων που επιθυμούν ουσιαστική αλλαγή στη ζωή τους.

Η θεραπευτική της προσέγγιση είναι εκλεκτική, βασισμένη στην πεποίθηση ότι –όπως έχει πει και ο Irvin Yalom– “ να προσαρμόζουμε τη θεραπεία στον θεραπευόμενο και όχι τον θεραπευόμενο στη θεραπεία”. Εργάζεται με ενήλικες και εφήβους που αντιμετωπίζουν δυσκολίες όπως άγχος, κρίσεις πανικού, συναισθηματική εξουθένωση, χαμηλή αυτοεκτίμηση, προβλήματα στις σχέσεις, πένθος ή μεταβατικές περιόδους ζωής που προκαλούν σύγχυση και ψυχική κόπωση.

Η ψυχοθεραπεία που προσφέρει δεν απευθύνεται μόνο σε όσους επιδιώκουν να ενισχύσουν την ψυχική τους ανθεκτικότητα, αλλά και σε ανθρώπους που νιώθουν “μπλοκαρισμένοι”, αβέβαιοι ή απομακρυσμένοι από τον εαυτό τους και αναζητούν έναν ασφαλή χώρο για να ακουστούν, να κατανοηθούν και να επανασυνδεθούν με τις εσωτερικές τους δυνάμεις.

Η Όλγα είναι πιστοποιημένη Σύμβουλος Ψυχικής Υγείας (HND – Pearson) και φοιτά στο Ευρωπαϊκό Πανεπιστήμιο Κύπρου στο τμήμα Ψυχολογίας. Παράλληλα, παρακολουθεί μεταπτυχιακές σπουδές στην Κλινική Ψυχοθεραπεία, ενισχύοντας συνεχώς τη θεωρητική της κατάρτιση και την επιστημονική της βάση. Η επαγγελματική της πρακτική εποπτεύεται συστηματικά, διασφαλίζοντας τη δεοντολογική αρτιότητα και την ποιότητα της θεραπευτικής διαδικασίας.

Με βαθιά ενσυναίσθηση, συνέπεια και σεβασμό στην ανθρώπινη μοναδικότητα, δημιουργείτε ένα θεραπευτικό περιβάλλον που στηρίζει, κινητοποιεί και ενδυναμώνει. Με επίγνωση της δυσκολίας που ενέχει το πρώτο βήμα προς την αλλαγή, δεσμεύεται να σταθεί δίπλα σε κάθε άνθρωπο που το τολμά με επαγγελματισμό, ειλικρίνεια και πίστη στις δυνατότητές του.

About the specialist

The Kentro Symfyia - Sakalidi Ioanna is located in Ano Patissia. The philosophy of "Symfyia," as its name suggests, symbolizes healing through the union and synthesis of the self, emphasizing the idea of integration and harmonious coexistence. The name of our psychotherapeutic center reflects the inspiration behind its creation—the process by which two or more entities/ideas closely unite in a way that they become inseparable and function as a single harmonious whole. Embodying these ideas, the center follows the Synthetic Psychotherapeutic approach both individually and in groups. Its purpose is to provide support to individuals so that they can address issues that concern them, such as anxiety management, crisis intervention, interpersonal relationships, self-improvement, personal development, and emotional conflicts. This approach is based on the relationship developed between therapist and client, which, to be effective and creative, must be well-defined, involve warmth and responsiveness, and take place in an atmosphere of acceptance and trust, where free expression of emotions is encouraged.

Η Μπαμπίλη Σοφία είναι Σύμβουλος Ψυχικής Υγείας και διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στην Δροσιά. Εκπαιδεύτηκε στην Ανασυνδιασμένη Εκλεκτική Συμβουλευτική ,συνεχίζει την εκπαίδευσή της στο London Metropolitan University και είναι πτυχιούχος στη Διοίκησης Επιχειρήσεων από το Πανεπιστήμιο Πειραιώς, με περισσότερα από σαράντα χρόνια εργασιακής εμπειρίας. Η Ανασυνδιασμένη Εκλεκτική Συμβουλευτική είναι μια σύγχρονη, ευέλικτη προσέγγιση που δεν περιορίζεται σε μία σχολή σκέψης. Συνδυάζει στοιχεία από διαφορετικά συμβουλευτικά και ψυχοθεραπευτικά μοντέλα, επιλέγοντας κάθε φορά ό,τι ταιριάζει καλύτερα στον άνθρωπο και στη φάση ζωής στην οποία βρίσκεται. Η διαδρομή της ειδικού δεν είναι μονοδιάστατη. Προέρχεται από τον χώρο της εργασίας, της ευθύνης και των απαιτητικών ρόλων ζωής. Έχει ζήσει τις πιέσεις, τις αλλαγές, τις απώλειες και τις μεταβάσεις που φέρνει ο χρόνος. Αυτή η εμπειρία είναι αναπόσπαστο κομμάτι του τρόπου που προσεγγίζει τον άνθρωπο. Πιστεύει ότι η κατανόηση δεν γεννιέται μόνο μέσα από τη γνώση, αλλά και μέσα από τη ζωή. Η απόφασή της να ασχοληθεί με τη συμβουλευτική ψυχικής υγείας δεν ήταν τυχαία. Ήταν αποτέλεσμα ωρίμανσης και βαθιάς ανάγκης να σταθεί δίπλα σε ανθρώπους που βρίσκονται σε φάσεις εσωτερικής κόπωσης, αναζήτησης ή επαναπροσδιορισμού. Στη δουλειά της, δίνει έμφαση στη σχέση και στον σεβασμό της προσωπικής διαδρομής του κάθε ανθρώπου. Δεν πιστεύει στις έτοιμες λύσεις ούτε στις γρήγορες απαντήσεις. Πιστεύει στη διαδικασία, στην παρουσία και στη σταδιακή κατανόηση. Είναι εδώ για όσους θέλουν να μιλήσουν ουσιαστικά. Για όσους έχουν ξανακάνει τον κύκλο και είναι έτοιμοι να τον διανύσουν με άλλον τρόπο.

Understanding the behaviour and motivations of others and using problem-solving skills to deal with difficult situations. Dealing with fears rather than avoiding them.

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.

Approach

Each person is a combination of mind, emotions, body and soul with unique experiences and events. No single life event, personality trait or psychological diagnosis defines you.

Psychodynamic psychotherapy
mental health

It is used in depression, anxiety, interpersonal problems, addictions, trauma, eating disorders, personality disorder.

Approach

Systemic psychotherapy
mental health

What it is

This approach connects communication and interaction patterns with a problem or a difficulty that the individual may be experiencing.

Approach

It helps the individual understand themselves more effectively, along with their roles and communication style and supports them in developing more functional ways of thinking and communicating within their system.

How it could benefit you

It helps improve understanding of relationship and family dynamics. It can change dysfunctional communication and behavior patterns within the system, strengthen empathy, support the development of stronger relationships and help with managing conflicts and difficulties.
