Why she is suitable for you

I am a psychotherapist and mental health counselor. My first degree is in business administration and I have an extensive track record spanning over two decades as a business executive in the personal care and healthcare industries. Motivated by a profound desire for personal and professional evolution, I embarked on a transformative path, pursuing graduate studies in psychology and I obtained a Graduate Certificate in Psychology and a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology and Psychotherapy. As part of my training, I have completed supervised practice with an integrative therapy approach. Currently, I am specializing in existential therapy and emotion focused therapy (EFT).

In my private practice, I offer individual sessions for adults dealing with psychological issues related to:

  • Life transitions such as loss, relocations, career changes, changes in family status, health conditions
  • Feelings of emptiness, loss of meaning and direction in life
  • Conflicts in family, friendships, or romantic relationships
  • Depression
  • Anxiety and stress
  • Perinatal (postpartum) anxiety and depression
  • Work-life balance issues, professional burnout, and coping with workplace mobbing
  • Difficulties due to intense emotions like hopelessness, anger, shame, guilt, fear, irritability
  • Panic attacks
  • Obsessions and compulsions

My therapeutic approach can be described as existential-integrative, where I combine existential therapy with other approaches such as systemic therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and interpersonal therapy, depending on the needs of the client.

Our work together will be guided by your needs and priorities and we will work on exploring different areas of how you live, starting with where you feel more challenged.

I will take on a role similar to that of a companion, accompanying you on the journey of psychotherapy within a mutual and authentic relationship, with complete focus on you. With an open, accepting, and exploratory attitude, I will support the exploration of your world, allowing you to reveal it, re-examine it, and evaluate the possibilities of your choices.

I invite you to embark on this journey of psychotherapy with me, for a fresh breath and a new perspective on your life.

Όμορφος, άνετος χώρος. Ένιωσα άνετα να μιλήσω μαζί της από την αρχή. Ήταν ζεστή και φιλόξενη, αλλά και επαγγελματική. Μου άρεσε ο τρόπος που αντιμετώπιζε τα θέματα που ανέφερα με ανοιχτότητα και ηρεμία, καθώς και πώς με καθοδηγούσε με τις ερωτήσεις της χωρίς να είναι κατευθυντική.

Ήταν η πρώτη φορά που συμβουλευόμουν έναν ψυχολόγο για αυτό τον λόγο και ανησυχούσα αρκετά. Όμως με την πρώτη επαφή μου ενέπνευσε εμπιστοσύνη. Με κατανόηση αλλά και προσοχή προσέγγισε την περίπτωση μου, για αυτό και θεωρώ την ατομική συνεδρία μαζί της ιδιαίτερα εποικοδομητική.

Είμαι ευγνώμων που την γνώρισα! Είναι εξαίρετη επαγγελματίας, αλλά και ευγενικός, ζεστός, συμπονετικός άνθρωπος που με έκανε να νιώσω άνετα από την πρώτη στιγμή. Με βοήθησε πραγματικά να έρθω σε επαφή με τα συναισθήματά μου με ένα απαλό και αβίαστο τρόπο και να αποκτήσω μια νέα αντίληψη για τα προβλήματα που αντιμετωπίζω. Συνεχίζουμε μαζί! Την προτείνω ανεπιφύλακτα!

Εξαίρετη επαγγελματίας. Πολύ καλή ακροάτρια, ευγενική και προσιτή, δείχνοντας γνήσιο ενδιαφέρον. Με έκανε να αισθανθώ ασφαλής και μου ενέπνευσε εμπιστοσύνη στο να ανοιχτώ και να μιλήσω για τα θέματα που με απασχολούσαν τη δεδομένη περίοδο. Χωρίς καμία πίεση και χωρίς κανένα ίχνος κριτικής με έκανε να νιώσω πάρα πολύ άνετα.

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.

Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT)

It is a form of psychotherapy that teaches a person to identify negative thought patterns and change 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.

How it could benefit you

What it is

Humanistic therapy is a form of psychotherapy in which self-awareness and self-acceptance are considered the keys to personal growth. It emphasizes creativity, collaboration and interaction between the individual and the therapist, using techniques such as role-play.

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.

It improves self-awareness and self-confidence, helps you understand how your past affects your present, how to deal effectively with stressful situations, improves human relationships and helps you better manage your emotions.

Psychodynamic psychotherapy
mental health

What it is

Psychodynamic psychotherapy is talk therapy that aims to understand current thoughts and feelings through the behaviours shaped by past experiences and the past. Understanding the past can help you avoid repeating unhelpful patterns that have existed in it and facilitate your quality of life alongside relief from distressing symptoms. It is used in depression, anxiety, interpersonal problems, addictions, trauma, eating disorders, personality disorder.

Approach

Psychodynamic psychotherapy provides a space to explore and understand how unhelpful patterns from the past may be influencing our current difficulties. Defence mechanisms are explored and how our feelings and behaviours in the present are shaped by our past experiences.

How it could benefit you

It helps people to live a healthier life. There may be things in a person's unconscious that they are not aware of that cause them pain or keep them stuck in the past. Identifying these and understanding them can lead you to move forward.

Systemic psychotherapy
mental health

What it is

It is applicable to family conflict/problems, family dynamics, child and adolescent behaviour problems, addictions, anger management, mood disorders, anxiety, eating disorders.

Approach

Therapy seeks to identify deep-rooted patterns within the individual's relationships and with group members.
