Ξεκίνησα συνεδρίες αρκετά διστακτικά, αλλά τελικά μου άφησε πολύ καλή αίσθηση από την αρχή! Με έκανε να νιώσω άνετα χωρίς πίεση και γενικά νιώθω ότι ακούει πραγματικά όσα λέω. Έχει μια ηρεμία που με βοηθάει αρκετά. Μέχρι τώρα νιώθω ότι με έχει βοηθήσει ουσιαστικά και ότι όλη η διαδικασία έχει νόημα για μένα. Τη συστήνω σίιγουρα σε όποιον ψάχνει έναν άνθρωπο ζεστό και ανθρώπινο, αλλά και σοβαρό στη δουλειά του!!

Δεν είναι εύκολο να βρεις έναν άνθρωπο που να σε κάνει να νιώθεις πραγματικά ασφαλής από την πρώτη στιγμή! Η συγκεκριμένη ψυχολόγος όμως το καταφέρνει με έναν μοναδικό τρόπο. Από την πρώτη μας συνεδρία μου ενέπνευσε βαθιά εμπιστοσύνη και μια αίσθηση ηρεμίας που δύσκολα περιγράφεται με λόγια! Με προσέγγισε με κατανόηση, χωρίς καμία διάθεση κριτικής, και με έκανε να νιώσω ότι μπορώ να μιλήσω ανοιχτά για ό,τι με απασχολεί. Οι συμβουλές της είναι ουσιαστικές, πρακτικές και πάντα προσαρμοσμένες στις ανάγκες μου, κάτι που δείχνει πόσο πραγματικά ακούει και νοιάζεται. Είναι εξαιρετικά καταρτισμένη, με βαθιά γνώση του αντικειμένου της, και αυτό φαίνεται σε κάθε συνεδρία. Συνδυάζει επιστημονική γνώση με ανθρώπινη προσέγγιση, δημιουργώντας έναν χώρο ασφάλειας και εξέλιξης. Νιώθω ευγνωμοσύνη που τη βρήκα και τη συστήνω ανεπιφύλακτα σε όποιον αναζητά ουσιαστική υποστήριξη!

Με μεγάλη εκτίμηση θα ήθελα να αναφέρω τη θετική εμπειρία που έχουμε από τη συνεργασία μας. Ο γιος μου, που πλέον είναι έφηβος, συνεργάζεται μαζί της από την πέμπτη δημοτικού, οπότε δεν πρόκειται για μια σύντομη εμπειρία. Σε κάθε συνεδρία νιώθει ασφάλεια και άνεση και εκφράζεται ελεύθερα, χωρίς φόβο και χωρίς επιφύλαξη, για όσα τον απασχολούν στην καθημερινότητά του, στο σχολείο και στις σχέσεις μέσα στην οικογένεια. Με τα χρόνια έχει χτιστεί μια σταθερή σχέση εμπιστοσύνης και ουσιαστικής επικοινωνίας, κάτι που φαίνεται ξεκάθαρα στον τρόπο που ανοίγεται. Τη συστήνω με ειλικρίνεια σε όποιον αναζητά έναν άνθρωπο με ήρεμη, υποστηρικτική προσέγγιση και πραγματική ικανότητα να δημιουργεί χώρο ασφάλειας και επικοινωνίας.

Έχοντας ταλαιπωρηθεί αρκετά στο παρελθόν με άλλους ψυχολόγους που παρουσιάστηκαν ως "ειδικοί" ξεκινήσαμε τις συναντήσεις μας με επιφύλαξη, αλλά σύντομα συνειδητοποιήσαμε ότι ήμασταν σε καλά χέρια. Βασικά χαρακτηριστικά; Ανοιχτές "κεραίες", ηρεμία, αμεσότητα και μεγάλη βοήθεια στον τρόπο προσέγγισης του θέματος που μας απασχολούσε!

Δημιουργεί κλίμα εμπιστοσύνης και ασφάλειας, κάτι που βοηθάει πολύ στη διαδικασία.

Από το δημοτικό αντιμετωπίζαμε προβλήματα με τον μικρό μας.Αφού επισκεφτήκαμε αρκετούς ψυχολόγους, αξιόλογους μεν αλλά που δεν μπορούσαν να αφουγκραστούν και να μπουν στην ψυχολογία του παιδιού, καταλήξαμε στην Κα Σταθάκη. Πέρα από τις σπουδές και τις γνώσεις της, που είναι εμφανές ότι διαθέτει, είναι ένας άνθρωπος με ενσυναίσθηση. Θα ακούσει με προσοχή τόσο τον γονιό όσο και το παιδί ή τον έφηβο και θα τον κερδίσει με την κατανόηση και την παντελή έλλειψη κριτικής. Οι συμβουλές της πάντα εστιάζουν στο πρόβλημα και μπορεί να τις επαναλάβει όσες φορές χρειαστεί μέχρι να βελτιωθεί η κατάσταση. Η Κα Σταθάκη χωρίς να χάνει την αντικειμενικότητα και τον επαγγελματισμό της είναι ο δικός μας άνθρωπος.

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

Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT)
mental health

What it is

It is a form of psychotherapy that teaches a person to identify negative thought patterns and change them. DBT reinforces the acceptance that all your thoughts are valid, as they are part of your life experiences and who you are. The person acts by doing the best they can for the moment. 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

It helps you make positive changes in the way you act. It identifies your negative thought patterns and changes them, helping to make positive changes in the way you act. Teaches you ways to manage intense emotions and stressful thoughts when they occur.

Humanistic psychotherapy
mental health

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.

How it could benefit 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

Systemic psychotherapy is an approach about how the individual acts as part of a wider group or broader system of relationships: family, partner relationship, work, friendships, and social environment. 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.
