Eustathiou Elina is a Mental Health Counselor - trainee Psychotherapist and maintains a private practice in Panormou.

Her approach combines self-understanding with the use of imagination, visualization, bodily awareness, and creative methods such as art, offering a more immediate and experiential way to connect with what already exists within the individual. Through the sessions, she focuses on recognizing recurring patterns and fostering more meaningful and balanced relationships, both in life and at work. Individual sessions are offered online and in person.
