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.

Υπαρξιακή Συστημική Ψυχοθεραπεύτρια

 

ΣΠΟΥΔΕΣ ΚΑΙ ΕΚΠΑΙΔΕΥΣΗ 

Είμαι Υπαρξιακή Συστημική Ψυχοθεραπεύτρια και Κοινωνική Λειτουργός με 22 χρόνια εμπειρίας στον χώρο της ψυχικής υγείας και της κοινωνικής φροντίδας.

Σπούδασα Κοινωνική Εργασία στο Τ.Ε.Ι. Αθήνας. Στη συνέχεια ολοκλήρωσα 6 ετή εκπαίδευση στην Υπαρξιακή Συστημική – Οικογενειακή Ψυχοθεραπεία και τριετή εκπαίδευση σε ομάδα Γενεόγραμματος στο Ψυχοθεραπευτικό Ινστιτούτο ΑΝΤΙΣΤΙΞΗ, υπό την εποπτεία των Παιδοψυχιάτρων – Ψυχοθεραπευτών Δημήτρη και Ελένης Καραγιάννη. Παράλληλα με την εκπαίδευση μου συμμετείχα επί 6 χρόνια σε ομάδα αυτογνωσίας για την προσωπική μου εξέλιξη. Είμαι πιστοποιημένη ψυχοθεραπεύτρια από την ΕΛΕΣΥΘ (Ελληνική Εταιρεία Συστημικής Οικογενειακής Θεραπείας). Επίσης έχω ολοκληρώσει εκπαίδευση ενός έτους στην μέθοδο Gordon-Εκπαίδευση του αποτελεσματικού γονέα.  Παρακολουθώ συστηματικά επιστημονικά συνέδρια και εκπαιδευτικά σεμινάρια σχετικά με την ψυχοθεραπεία και τη δυναμική των σχέσεων.

Έχω πολυετή εμπειρία στον δημόσιο τομέα, με αντικείμενο την κοινωνική υποστήριξη οικογενειών, θετών και αναδόχων γονέων, καθώς και την εκπαίδευση τους. Η επαγγελματική μου εμπειρία έχει ενισχύσει τη βαθιά μου κατανόηση για τη λειτουργία της οικογένειας και τις ανάγκες των ανθρώπων μέσα στα σύγχρονα κοινωνικά πλαίσια.

ΘΕΡΑΠΕΥΤΙΚΗ ΠΡΟΣΈΓΓΙΣΗ 

 Πιστεύω ότι κάθε άνθρωπος έχει μέσα του την δυνατότητα για αλλαγή, να εμπνέεται, να δημιουργεί και να ανακαλύπτει νέους τρόπους σύνδεσης με τον εαυτό του και τους άλλους. Η δουλειά μου επικεντρώνεται στη δημιουργία ενός σταθερού πλαισίου με αποδοχή και σεβασμό όπου ο άνθρωπος μπορεί να εκφράσει ελεύθερα τα συναισθήματα του, να επεξεργαστεί τα βιώματα του, να επαναπροσδιορίσει τις σχέσεις του, να κατανοήσει και να αγαπήσει τον εαυτό του.Η θεραπευτική διαδικασία στοχεύει στην ενίσχυση της αυτογνωσίας, τη συναισθηματική ωριμότητα, την έμπνευση και την ανάληψη της προσωπικής ευθύνης καθώς και τη δημιουργία λειτουργικών σχέσεων. 

Συνεργάζομαι με ενήλικες, εφήβους, ζευγάρια, οικογένειες που επιθυμούν να βελτιώσουν την επικοινωνία τους, να φροντίσουν τις σχέσεις τους, να δώσουν χώρο στα συναισθήματα τους και να τα επεξεργαστούν, να αναπτύξουν βαθύτερη κατανόηση και επαφή με τον εαυτό τους και τους άλλους. Να δημιουργούν σχέσεις με αυθεντικότητα, τρυφερότητα και ισορροπία και να ζουν με πληρότητα και χαρά!

Η Μπαμπίλη Σοφία είναι Σύμβουλος Ψυχικής Υγείας και διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στην Σταμάτα. 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.

Η Δήμητρα Μουσιώνη είναι Προσωποκεντρική Σύμβουλος Ψυχικής Υγείας και βιωματική/ Focusing ψυχοθεραπεύτρια σε διαδικασία πιστοποίησης, πιστοποιημένη εκπαιδεύτρια γονέων (Attached at the Heart Parent Educator) από το Attachment Parenting Hellas. Διατηρεί το ιδιωτικό της γραφείο στη Νέα Σμύρνη. Σπούδασε Επικοινωνία, Μέσα και Πολιτισμό (κατεύθυνση Δημοσιογραφίας) στο Πάντειο Πανεπιστήμιο και εργάστηκε ως δημοσιογράφος (διεθνή, ελεύθερο και εκπαιδευτικό ρεπορτάζ) στην ΕΡΤ και την Ελευθεροτυπία. Η γέννηση του παιδιού της σήμανε την έναρξη ενός κύκλου αναζήτησης, θεραπείας και προσωπικής ανάπτυξης. Ακολούθησαν πολλές εκπαιδεύσεις και σεμινάρια σχετικά με τη γονεϊκότητα, την εκπαίδευση, την ανάπτυξη του παιδιού, τη σημασία του παιχνιδιού και το τραύμα, τις οποίες συνεχίζει έως σήμερα. 

Έχει εργαστεί εθελοντικά στο Ελληνικό Δίκτυο Γυναικών Ευρώπης, στη Γραμμή ΣΟΣ Δίπλα σου για την πρόληψη και αντιμετώπιση της έμφυλης βίας και στο Τμήμα Συμβουλευτικής και Ψυχοθεραπείας του Ελληνικού Κέντρου Focusing, παρέχοντας συνεδρίες σε ενήλικες με ΔΕΠΥ. 

Έχει πραγματοποιήσει περισσότερες από 200 ώρες ατομικής θεραπείας και βρίσκεται σε σταθερό εποπτικό πλαίσιο. Επιπλέον, έχει παρακολουθήσει τουλάχιστον 160 ώρες επιμορφώσεων και σεμιναρίων, καθώς και πολυάριθμα διεθνή και εγχώρια συνέδρια.

Είναι απλό τακτικό μέλος της Ελληνικής Εταιρείας Συμβουλευτικής, trainee member του International Focusing Institute της Νέας Υόρκης (TIFI), student member του World Association for Person–Centered and Experiential Psychotherapy and Counseling, δόκιμο μέλος της Ελληνικής Προσωποκεντρικής και Βιωματικής Εταιρείας (ΕΠΒΕ) και μέλος του Συλλόγου Messy Play Greece & Cyprus.

Επέλεξε την Προσωποκεντρική καθώς είναι από τις λίγες θεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις όπου η θεραπεύτρια δεν μπαίνει με την ταμπέλα της ειδικού στη θεραπευτική σχέση. Αντίθετα, αναγνωρίζοντας τα προνόμια και τις ευθύνες του ρόλου της, υποστηρίζει, διευκολύνει και συνοδεύει τα θεραπευόμενα στη δική τους μοναδική διαδικασία. Παράλληλα, πιστεύει ότι ο ενσυναισθητικός, με αποδοχή και αυθεντικότητα τρόπος συνοδείας των ανθρώπων αποτελεί τη βάση κάθε συμβουλευτικής και θεραπευτικής σχέσης.

Εμπιστεύεται και έχει βιώσει τη μεταμορφωτική δύναμη της διαδικασίας εστίασης (Focusing), μέσω της επαφής με τη βιωμένη αίσθηση, το άνοιγμα του εσωτερικού χώρου και τη δημιουργία σχέσης ασφάλειας και εμπιστοσύνης με το αισθητηριακό σώμα. 

Η προσέγγισή της εστιάζει στη σημασία της σχέσης και του ασφαλούς συναισθηματικού δεσμού, του τραύματος και της λειτουργίας του αυτόνομου νευρικού συστήματος. Επιπλέον, αναγνωρίζει τη σημασία της επιβεβαιωτικής στάσης ως προς τη νευροποικιλότητα, τα φύλα και τις σεξουαλικότητες.

Αγαπά το διάβασμα, το παιχνίδι, τον χορό, τα ταξίδια και κυρίως το να ξεμαθαίνει και να μαθαίνει συνεχώς.

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
