Kalapothakou Dessy BSc, MSc

With a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Social Psychology from Panteion University (in Identities and Interpersonal Relationships), and experience in therapeutic, community, and volunteer settings, I work with adult individuals, couples, and groups seeking balance, authenticity, and meaningful connection.

My work is grounded in the Narrative Therapy approach, which views every person as the bearer of stories filled with values, strengths, and possibilities — stories that are often overshadowed by dominant narratives or diagnostic labels.

Through dialogue, collaboration, empowerment, and inclusion, therapy becomes a space for re-authoring one’s life and restoring dignity.

My approach is rooted in the belief that psychology can — and should — serve as a tool for social change, focusing on the voices of those who have often been silenced or marginalized.

I have experience in clinical and community settings, including mental health structures, youth disability programs, and volunteer services. My training includes trauma-informed care, medical psychology, chronic illness and disability, grief and loss, intersectionality, LGBTQ+ counseling for individuals, families, and couples, as well as work around stigma, abuse, and social exclusion.

My practice is guided by a person-centered, narrative, and inclusive perspective, grounded in human rights.

Believing that psychotherapy is a right for everyone, I offer individualized sessions for unemployed individuals, low-income retirees, caregivers or partners of people with disabilities, and seasonal workers in the tourism and hospitality.
