Why she is suitable for you

Karavela Fani is a Psychologist with a private practice in Koukaki. She graduated from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Department of Psychology, in 2005. During her studies, she volunteered for two summers at the Psychiatric Hospital of Leros and completed a six-month voluntary internship at the Thessaloniki unit for individuals with addictions, providing psychological support to them and their families. After completing her studies, she worked at the "NIKI" Association, a model nursery for children with special needs and pervasive developmental disorders. Subsequently, she transitioned to the business sector, working for one year in a private company before departing for postgraduate studies in London, where she completed an MSc in Social & Organizational Psychology at the LSE. Upon returning, she started her own business in collaboration with her brother, which has maintained a successful 12-year trajectory.

Her passion for psychology and people motivated her to return to education three years ago, pursuing a four-year course culminating in specialization in Gestalt Psychotherapy. Concurrently with her studies, she volunteers at the counseling helpline for parents and children, "TOGETHER FOR THE CHILD," and manages individual online sessions with adult clients. She acknowledges that education is an ongoing journey and therefore ensures to attend additional seminars and has incorporated systematic private supervision into her practice.

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.

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.

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

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.

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

Systemic psychotherapy identifies behavioral patterns within a persons’ relationships and in the way someone connects with others. 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.
