Health professionals with experience in Treatment of ADHD in Athens

Mpogiopoulos Giannis is a Psychologist and maintains a private practice in Ano Patisia. He holds postgraduate studies in Cyberpsychology from the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens while simultaneously being supervised in Systemic - Existential Psychotherapy. His therapy has multiple objectives. Initially, it is very important to comprehensively understand the person beyond the narrow scope of any particular problem causing them difficulty. Afterwards, he will proceed with the aim of identifying the causes that led to these specific difficulties and then reflect together with the client on how to utilize their personal strengths to reshape the way and conditions in which they live. During the process, the unique elements of the individual's personal identity emerge, which must be cared for and highlighted because the primary goal is not only to create a pleasant mood but to build a rich and multifaceted self capable of generating personal happiness with depth and durability.

Ο Μπισμπίκος Βασίλειος είναι Ψυχίατρος και παρέχει ψυχιατρική φροντίδα αποκλειστικά κατ' οίκον, στην Αθήνα και την Αττική σε ενήλικες. Επισκέπτεται τον ασθενή στον δικό του χώρο, εκεί όπου νιώθει ασφαλής, με διακριτικότητα και απόλυτη εχεμύθεια.

Ολοκλήρωσε τις ιατρικές του σπουδές στο Πανεπιστήμιο του Καρόλου στην Πράγα και ειδικεύτηκε στην Ψυχιατρική και την Ψυχοθεραπεία στη Γερμανία, αποκτώντας κλινική εμπειρία και ως Επιμελητής. Συνδυάζει την επιστημονικά τεκμηριωμένη προσέγγιση με την ουσιαστική ανθρώπινη κατανόηση.

Έχει ολοκληρώσει την θητεία του ως Επιμελητής σε Κέντρο Ημερήσιας Νοσηλείας με ευθύνη για την οργάνωση και τον συντονισμό των διασυνδεδεμένων Εξωτερικών Ιατρείων. Παράλληλα, είχε εκτεταμένη εμπειρία στη διαχείριση οξέων περιστατικών, καθώς συμμετείχε στο πρόγραμμα εφημεριών κλινικής με δυναμικότητα άνω των 100 κλινών, τόσο ως εφημερεύων ιατρός πρώτης γραμμής όσο και ως επιβλέπων ιατρός σε ετοιμότητα κλήσης.

Θεωρεί πως η εκτίμηση στο σπίτι προσφέρει πληρέστερη κλινική εικόνα και είναι ιδιαίτερα πολύτιμη για όσους δυσκολεύονται να μετακινηθούν, λόγω ηλικίας, περιορισμένης κινητικότητας ή της ίδιας της κατάστασης της ψυχικής υγείας.

Πιστεύει σε μια θεραπευτική σχέση εμπιστοσύνης, με σεβασμό στον χρόνο, την αξιοπρέπεια και τις ανάγκες του κάθε ανθρώπου.
