Η Χαρά Ντούλια είναι πιστοποιημένη Σύμβουλος Ψυχικής Υγείας, σύμφωνα με τις προδιαγραφές της Ελληνική Εταιρεία Συμβουλευτικής. Είναι κάτοχος του Diploma in Integrative Counselling από την COSCA και τακτικό μέλος της Ελληνικής Εταιρείας Συμβουλευτικής.Είναι απόφοιτος Φαρμακευτικής Σχολής και εργάστηκε ως φαρμακοποιός για αρκετά χρόνια, πριν στραφεί στον χώρο της Ψυχολογίας. Σήμερα συνεχίζει τις σπουδές της στο Marconi University, όπου είναι τελειόφοιτη στο Τμήμα Ψυχολογίας. Στο πλαίσιο της συνεχούς επαγγελματικής και προσωπικής της εξέλιξης, παρακολουθεί εκπαιδευτικά σεμινάρια και επιμορφωτικά προγράμματα, ενώ παράλληλα συνεχίζει την προσωπική της θεραπευτική διεργασία και την επαγγελματική εποπτεία.Διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στην Αθήνα, όπου πραγματοποιεί ατομικές συνεδρίες συμβουλευτικής και συνεδρίες ζεύγους. Παρέχει συμβουλευτική υποστήριξη και σε LGBTQI+ άτομα, με στόχο να προσεγγίσουν τον εαυτό τους με ελευθερία, αποδοχή και ασφάλεια. Παράλληλα, αποτελεί μέρος ενός δικτύου συνεργασίας ψυχιάτρων και άλλων επαγγελματιών ψυχικής υγείας, με σκοπό τη συνολική υποστήριξη της πορείας κάθε ανθρώπου, όταν αυτό κρίνεται απαραίτητο. Οι συνεδρίες πραγματοποιούνται τόσο δια ζώσης όσο και διαδικτυακά, ανάλογα με τις ανάγκες και τη διαθεσιμότητα του κάθε ατόμου.Το ενδιαφέρον της για την ψυχική υγεία, σε συνδυασμό με την προσωπική της εμπειρία, την οδήγησαν να αφοσιωθεί στην Ψυχολογία, αρχικά μέσα από τη δική της πορεία αυτογνωσίας και στη συνέχεια ως επαγγελματίας. Πιστεύει βαθιά ότι κάθε άνθρωπος έχει τη δυνατότητα να κατανοήσει τον εαυτό του και να εξελιχθεί, όταν βρεθεί σε ένα περιβάλλον ασφάλειας και αποδοχής.Ως σύμβουλος ψυχικής υγείας, ακολουθεί τη συνθετική προσέγγιση, ενσωματώνοντας στοιχεία από διαφορετικά θεραπευτικά μοντέλα, όπως η προσωποκεντρική, η γνωσιακή-συμπεριφορική, η ψυχοδυναμική και η Gestalt. Η προσέγγιση αυτή επιτρέπει η θεραπευτική διαδικασία να παραμένει ευέλικτη και προσαρμοσμένη στις ανάγκες του κάθε ανθρώπου, αναγνωρίζοντας τη μοναδικότητά του πέρα από τους περιορισμούς ενός μόνο θεωρητικού πλαισίου.Βασική της πεποίθηση είναι ότι όλοι οι άνθρωποι είναι εκ φύσεως άξιοι εμπιστοσύνης και διαθέτουν τη δυνατότητα αλλαγής, εξέλιξης και αυτοκατανόησης. Πιστεύει στην έμφυτη ικανότητα της αυτοθεραπείας και θεωρεί πως ο ρόλος της είναι να συνοδεύει το άτομο στην αναζήτηση της προσωπικής του σοφίας, με σεβασμό στον δικό του χρόνο και τρόπο.Για την ίδια, κάθε συνεδρία αποτελεί μια μοναδική συνάντηση δύο ανθρώπων που συνειδητά επιλέγουν να συνεργαστούν. Μέσα σε ένα ασφαλές και υποστηρικτικό πλαίσιο, δημιουργεί τον χώρο ώστε το άτομο να μπορέσει να δει και να ακούσει τον εαυτό του όπως ακριβώς είναι, με πλήρη αποδοχή για όλα τα συναισθήματα, τις σκέψεις και τη σιωπή. Στόχος της είναι η οικοδόμηση μιας θεραπευτικής σχέσης που βασίζεται στην ειλικρίνεια, τον σεβασμό, την εμπιστοσύνη και την κατανόηση, καθώς πιστεύει ότι η ίδια η σχέση αποτελεί τον σημαντικότερο παράγοντα ανάπτυξης και αλλαγής.Δεσμεύεται να λειτουργεί ως συνοδοιπόρος και υποστηρικτική παρουσία στο ταξίδι της αυτογνωσίας, της συνειδητότητας, της ελευθερίας και της βαθύτερης σύνδεσης με την ανθρώπινη ύπαρξη.

Ο Τζήμας Αλέξανδρος είναι Ψυχολόγος MSc ψυχαναλυτικής κατεύθυνσης και εργάζεται ιδιωτικά με ενήλικες και εφήβους στο Κουκάκι. Σπούδασε στο Τμήμα Ψυχολογίας του Εθνικού & Καποδιστριακού Πανεπιστημίου Αθηνών κι έχει ολοκληρώσει τις μεταπτυχιακές του σπουδές στην Κοινωνική Ψυχιατρική του Τμήματος Ιατρικής του Δημοκρίτειου Πανεπιστημίου Θράκης. Η κλινική του πρακτική έχει διαμορφωθεί μέσα από την πολυετή εργασία σε κοινοτικές υπηρεσίες ψυχικής υγείας, έχοντας εργαστεί με άτομα που έχουν βιώσει διάφορες μορφές ψυχικής δυσφορίας όπως άγχος, καταναγκασμούς, κατάθλιψη, συναισθηματικές διαταραχές, φαινόμενα ψύχωσης, δυσκολίες αλληλεπίδρασης. Παράλληλα με την ιδιωτική άσκηση και την ψυχαναλυτική του εκπαίδευση, έχει εργαστεί ως Επιστημονικά Υπεύθυνος σε Υπηρεσίες Ψυχοκοινωνικής Αποκατάστασης ατόμων με ψυχιατρική εμπειρία, συντονίζοντας και εποπτεύοντας τη λειτουργία τους.

Η Πετρίνα Ρούσσου είναι Κλινική & Κοινοτική Ψυχολόγος (UEL) και Ειδ. Ψυχοδυναμική - Ψυχαναλυτική Ψυχοθεραπεύτρια (ΔΙ.ΚΕ.Ψ.Υ.), Προσωπική Ακαδημαϊκή Σύμβουλος, Διδάσκουσα και Επόπτρια στο τμήμα Ψυχολογίας του Μητροπολιτικού Κολλεγίου (Oxford Brookes University). Διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στον Πειραιά, παρέχοντας ατομικές συνεδρίες ψυχοθεραπείας Δια ζώσης και Διαδικτυακά. Είναι μέλος του British Psychological Society (GMBPsS), διεθνές μέλος της American Psychological Association (APA) και δόκιμο μέλος της European Association for Psychotherapy (EAP) και της Εθνικής Εταιρείας Ψυχοθεραπείας Ελλάδος (ΕΕΨΕ), διατηρώντας ενεργή παρουσία στην επιστημονική και θεραπευτική κοινότητα.

Η επαγγελματική της εμπειρία περιλαμβάνει κλινική εργασία σε νοσοκομειακό πλαίσιο, στο Ναυτικό Νοσοκομείο Πειραιά, με συμμετοχή σε προγράμματα νοητικής ενδυνάμωσης και ψυχοκοινωνικής υποστήριξης του εξωτερικού νευρολογικού ιατρείου. Έπειτα, συνέχισε ερευνητικά και θεραπευτικά στο ΚΕΘΕΑ Εν Δράσει, σε ένα πρόγραμμα που εστιάζει στη συμβουλευτική, τη θεραπεία και την κοινωνική επανένταξη ατόμων με δυσκολίες εξάρτησης και εμπλοκής με το ποινικό σύστημα, ενισχύοντας τη σύνδεση της ψυχοκοινωνικής έρευνας με την κλινική πρακτική και την κοινοτική παρέμβαση. Παράλληλα, έχει αναπτύξει θεραπευτική εμπειρία με παιδιά, εφήβους, γονείς και ενήλικες σε κέντρα ειδικών θεραπειών στον Πειραιά και στη Σύρο, διαμορφώνοντας μια σφαιρική και πολυεπίπεδη κατανόηση της θεραπευτικής διαδικασίας. Στο θεραπευτικό της έργο, βασισμένη στην ψυχαναλυτική & ψυχοδυναμική της εκπαίδευση, προσεγγίζει την ψυχική ανάπτυξη και τις σχέσεις ως μια δυναμική διαδικασία που εξελίσσεται σε όλο το φάσμα της ζωής. Στο ιδιωτικό της γραφείο εργάζεται με ζευγάρια, γονείς, παιδιά, εφήβους και ενήλικες, δουλεύοντας με τις ασυνείδητες διεργασίες, τους δεσμούς και τα σχεσιακά μοτίβα που διαμορφώνουν την εμπειρία του εαυτού και του άλλου. Η κλινική της πρακτική εστιάζει στη δημιουργία ενός σταθερού και ασφαλούς πλαισίου, όπου κάθε ηλικιακή και οικογενειακή ομάδα μπορεί να επεξεργαστεί το προσωπικό της νόημα, ενισχύοντας τη συναισθηματική κατανόηση, τη συμβολοποίηση και την ψυχική ωρίμανση.

Η ενασχόλησή της με διαφορετικές ηλικιακές ομάδες και ποικίλα θεραπευτικά αιτήματα ενίσχυσε μια βαθιά κατανόηση της δυναμικής της θεραπευτικής σχέσης και της αλληλεπίδρασης ανάμεσα στο βίωμα, την ιστορία και τον εσωτερικό κόσμο κάθε ανθρώπου. Μέσα από την ψυχαναλυτική οπτική, η θεραπεία δεν αποτελεί απλώς μια διαδικασία διαχείρισης δυσκολιών, αλλά ένα χώρο όπου το ασυνείδητο μπορεί να αποκτήσει φωνή και νόημα. Όπως συμβαίνει συχνά στη ζωή, επαναλαμβανόμενα μοτίβα, ανεξήγητα συναισθήματα ή σχέσεις που μας δυσκολεύουν κρύβουν βαθύτερες ρίζες. Η ψυχαναλυτική διαδικασία προσφέρει έναν ασφαλή τόπο εξερεύνησης, όπου τα κομμάτια της εμπειρίας μπορούν να συνδεθούν, τα κρυμμένα νοήματα να αναδυθούν και να δημιουργηθεί χώρος για ουσιαστική αλλαγή. Εκεί όπου η κατανόηση του ασυνείδητου συναντά την ανθρώπινη σχέση, ανοίγεται η δυνατότητα για μια πιο αυθεντική, ζωντανή και συνειδητή εμπειρία ζωής.
