About the specialist

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.

Η Καράμπαλη Ελένη MSc είναι Κλινική Ψυχολόγος - Ψυχοθεραπεύτρια και διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στα Εξάρχεια. Είναι απόφοιτος του Πανεπιστημίου Καρόλου της Πράγας, με άδεια ασκήσεως επαγγέλματος (Αρ.πρωτ. 8234) και πολυετή εμπειρία στην υποστήριξη ενηλίκων, εφήβων και παιδιών. Έχει εκπαιδευτεί στη Γνωσιακή Συμπεριφορική Θεραπεία (CBT) και στην Art Therapy, καθώς και σε πρωτόκολλα παρέμβασης σε τραύμα και ψυχολογική παρέμβαση σε κρίση. Στην πορεία της καριέρας της έχει εργαστεί σε διαφορετικά περιβάλλοντα ψυχικής υγείας στην Ελλάδα (Παιδικά Χωριά SOS, Ελληνικός Ερυθρός Σταυρός) και στο εξωτερικό, υποστηρίζοντας κυρίως ευάλωτες ομάδες. Σήμερα διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στο κέντρο της Αθήνας και εργάζεται στο Ελληνικό Συμβούλιο για τους Πρόσφυγες, αναλαμβάνοντας την ψυχολογική στήριξη παιδιών, εφήβων και γονέων. Εξειδικεύεται στη διαχείριση άγχους, κατάθλιψης, μετατραυματικού στρες, πένθους, φοβιών, κακοποίησης και δυσκολιών στις διαπροσωπικές σχέσεις. Παράλληλα, έχει εμπειρία στη διάγνωση ψυχοπαθολογίας και στη χρήση ψυχομετρικών εργαλείων, προσφέροντας εξατομικευμένες παρεμβάσεις με σεβασμό στις ανάγκες του κάθε ατόμου. Στη θεραπευτική της προσέγγισης αξιοποιεί κυρίως τη Γνωσιακή Συμπεριφορική Θεραπεία (CBT), μια επιστημονικά τεκμηριωμένη μέθοδο που βοηθά το άτομο να αναγνωρίσει και να τροποποιήσει τις σκέψεις και τα μοτίβα συμπεριφοράς που ενισχύουν τη δυσφορία του. Η CBT δίνει πρακτικά εργαλεία, ενδυναμώνει και καλλιεργεί νέες, πιο υγιείς οπτικές απέναντι στη ζωή. Παράλληλα, ενσωματώνει στοιχεία Θεραπείας μέσω Τέχνης (Art Therapy), ειδικά όταν δουλεύει με παιδιά, εφήβους ή ενήλικες που δυσκολεύονται να εκφραστούν λεκτικά. Η δημιουργία γίνεται ένα ασφαλές “κανάλι” έκφρασης συναισθημάτων, αναμνήσεων και εσωτερικών συγκρούσεων, χωρίς τη χρήση λόγου. Δεν ακολουθεί μία αυστηρή “συνταγή”. Κάθε άνθρωπος είναι μοναδικός, και κάθε συνεδρία προσαρμόζεται στις ανάγκες του - με σεβασμό στον ρυθμό του, στην ιστορία του και στις αντοχές του. Οταν δουλεύει με παιδιά, δίνει ιδιαίτερη σημασία στη συνεργασία με τους γονείς. Ο στόχος δεν είναι μόνο η “αντιμετώπιση” μιας δυσκολίας, αλλά η ενδυνάμωση της σχέσης γονιού - παιδιού, ώστε το ίδιο το σπίτι να γίνει χώρος θεραπείας, εμπιστοσύνης και ανάπτυξης. Τέλος, προσφέρει συνεδρίες και στα αραβικά και στα τσεχικά.

 Ο λόγος, η κίνηση, η κοινωνική διάδραση και το παιχνίδι αποτελούν το μονοπάτι για μια χαρούμενη, ελεύθερη, και ανεξάρτητη ζωή. Στο Λόγου Χάριν βοηθάμε παιδιά και εφήβους να καλλιεργούν τις δεξιότητές τους και να εκφράζουν τις σκέψεις, τα συναισθήματα και τα "θέλω" τους συνειδητοποιώντας την πολύτιμη μοναδικότητά τους."

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.
