Ως συστημική θεραπεύτρια, δεν εστιάζω μόνο στο σύμπτωμα. Βλέπω τον άνθρωπο ως μέρος ενός ευρύτερου συνόλου (οικογένεια, σχέσεις, εργασία, κοινωνία). Μαζί, θα προσπαθήσουμε να κατανοήσουμε τα μοτίβα που σας εγκλωβίζουν, να συνδέσουμε τα συνειδητά με τα ασυνείδητα κομμάτια, να φωτίσουμε τις δικές σας εσωτερικές δυνάμεις και να βρούμε νέους τρόπους επικοινωνίας και διαχείρισης των προκλήσεων.

Δουλεύω αποκλειστικά διαδικτυακά με ενήλικες τόσο στην Ελλάδα όσο και με Έλληνες του εξωτερικού. Η online μορφή μας επιτρέπει να δουλέψουμε με την ίδια ακριβώς θεραπευτική ποιότητα (ενσυναίσθηση, αποδοχή, αυθεντικότητα, εχεμύθεια και εμπιστευτικότητα) και αμεσότητα, από την ασφάλεια και την άνεση του δικού σας χώρου.

Μπορώ να σας υποστηρίξω σε ζητήματα όπως:

-Διαχείριση άγχους, κρίσεων και στρες

-Κατάθλιψη, απώλεια και πένθος

-Δυσκολίες στις διαπροσωπικές σχέσεις (οικογενειακές, συντροφικές, επαγγελματικές)

-Ζητήματα αυτοεκτίμησης, μοναξιάς και αυτοεικόνας

-Προσαρμογή σε νέες συνθήκες/φάσεις ζωής (π.χ. μετανάστευση, αλλαγή καριέρας, γονεϊκότητα, διαζύγιο)

-Επεξεργασία τραυματικών εμπειριών

Στο κάτω μέρος της σελίδας μπορείτε να δείτε αναλυτικά την ακαδημαϊκή μου εκπαίδευση (Πάντειο Πανεπιστήμιο, ΕΚΠΑ) και την επαγγελματική μου εμπειρία.
