About the specialist

Το κέντρο ψυχοθεραπείας «συνυπάρχω» είναι ένας χώρος ψυχοθεραπείας όπου το υπάρχειν,η προσωπική εξέλιξη, η αυτογνωσία και η υπεράσπιση του δυναμικού κάθε προσώπου αναδεικνύεται μέσα από τις σχέσεις και αλληλεπιδράσεις του.Η διαφορετικότητα, το βλέμμα, τα μοναδικά βιώματα του κάθε ανθρώπου εμπλουτίζουν αναδεικνύουν και αποκαλύπτουν το κάθε μοναδικό πρόσωπο με σεβασμό και κατανόηση.Η υπέρβαση των στενών ορίων του εγώ είναι που δημιουργεί τον χώρο για συνάντηση, μοίρασμα, νόημα και εξέλιξη. Είναι εκεί που συμβαίνουν οι αλλαγές, οι εκπλήξεις και τα συγκλονιστικά θαύματα.Στην υπαρξιακή θεώρηση κεντρικός άξονας είναι ο άνθρωπος και αντιμετωπίζεται με σεβασμό η μοναδικότητα και η προσωπική του πορεία.Σημαντικά στοιχεία της θεραπείας είναι η ελεύθερη βούληση και η ανάληψη προσωπικής ευθύνης από την πλευρά του θεραπευόμενου για να ερευνήσει, να κατανοήσει και να δώσει λύση στα προβλήματα του. Να γίνει οδηγός στη ζωή του και αναπτύσσοντας τις δυνατότητες του να χαράξει την προσωπική του πορεία.Στην θεραπευτική διεργασία εξερευνώνται θεμελιώδη ζητήματα της ύπαρξης όπως το νόημα της ζωής, η ελευθερία, η απομόνωση και ο θάνατος με σκοπό την εστίαση στον αυθεντικό-οντολογικό τρόπο ζωής ο οποίος χαρακτηρίζεται από μια κατάσταση ετοιμότητας για προσωπική αλλαγή παίρνοντας σαν δεδομένο τη βαθιά αίσθηση αβεβαιότητας για το μέλλον εκτός από την κοινή ανθρώπινη μοίρα, τον θάνατο. Ο αυθεντικός-οντολογικός τρόπος ύπαρξης προϋποθέτει να είσαι ειλικρινής και αληθινός απέναντι στον εαυτό σου, να ζεις με σκοπό και συνείδηση.Η συστημική προσέγγιση είναι επηρεασμένη από τη θεωρία συστημάτων, την θεωρητική βάση της κυβερνητικής, τον κονστρουκτιονισμό και κοινωνικό κονστρουκτιονισμό.Βασική της παραδοχή είναι ότι το ΟΛΟ είναι διαφορετικό από το σύνολο των μερών του. Το ΟΛΟ λειτουργεί με διαφορετικό τρόπο απ ότι τα μέρη του γιατί περιλαμβάνει εκτός από τις ενότητες, τις σχέσεις και τις αλληλαντιδράσεις των ενοτήτων αυτών. Συνεπώς σε ένα σύστημα ένας αριθμός από διεργασίες βρίσκονται σε συνεχή αλληλεξάρτηση, αλληλοσυσχέτιση και συναλλαγή.Βασική αρχή της συστημικής προσέγγισης είναι η ολιστική αντίληψη των δεδομένων, αρχή που οδηγεί στη διεύρυνση του πλαισίου για τη μελέτη και την ερμηνεία των φαινομένων αυτών και η κυκλικότητα στον τρόπο λειτουργίας και διεύρυνσης τους. Κάθε συμπεριφορά εξετάζεται όχι μεμονομένα αλλά στο δυναμικό πλαίσιο στο οποίο αναπτύσσεται.Συνεπώς το πρόβλημα που ένα άτομο αναπτύσσει θεωρείται ως σύμπτωμα του όλου πλαισίου στο οποίο εντάσσεται. Η συμπεριφορά του ατόμου είναι αποτέλεσμα πρωτίστως της μη λειτουργικής δομής και τρόπου επικοινωνίας στο πλαίσιο στο οποίο το άτομο ανήκει. Το πιο κοντινό πλαίσιο είναι η οικογένεια και γι αυτό το λόγο η συστημική θεραπεία λέγεται και θεραπεία οικογένειας.Αν οι διεργασίες μέσα στην οικογένεια ακολουθούν ανταγωνιστικές κατευθύνσεις, αν η καθημερινή εμπειρία συγκρούεται με ερμηνείες και αντιλήψεις της οικογένειας και του ευρύτερου κοινωνικού και πολιτισμικού πλαισίου εμφανίζονται δυσλειτουργικές καταστάσεις και προβλήματα.Η συστημική θεωρία ευνοεί την ευελιξία, την εξέλιξη και τις μετακινήσεις αντί της ακαμψίας και της απολυτότητας ώστε ο κύκλος της συναλλαγής και της αλληλεπίδρασης να καταστεί λειτουργικός και παραγωγικός.Η θεραπευτική παρέμβαση απαιτεί από τον θεραπευτή να χρησιμοποιήσει τον εαυτό του , να ενωθεί με την οικογένεια και να βιώνει την πραγματικότητα όπως την βιώνουν τα μέλη της οικογένειας. Τον χαρακτηρίζει μια στάση ισοτιμίας απέναντι στον άνθρωπο ανεξαρτήτως παθολογίας.Ο θεραπευτής ως φορέας αλλαγής αντιλαμβανόμενος τον περιορισμό του πλαισίου της εκάστοτε οικογένειας παρεμβαίνει με διαφορετικό τρόπο κάθε φορά ώστε να παραχθεί ένας διαφορετικός πιο λειτουργικός και παραγωγικός τρόπος ζωής.Ο συνδιασμός της υπαρξιακής με την συστημική προσέγγιση οδηγεί στη θέαση του ανθρώπου ως σύνθετη βιο-ψυχο-κοινωνική οντότητα που δεν αρκεί να εξεταστεί μεμονομένα και γραμμικά αλλά απαιτείται να εξεταστεί σε βάθος και σε σχέση με το περιβάλλον, τις σχέσεις και τις πεποιθήσεις του. Ο άνθρωπος αρχίζει να αντιλαμβάνεται τον εαυτό του ως μέρος πολύπλοκων συστημάτων και διεργασιών, ανακαλύπτει ότι πολλοί ρόλοι, συνήθειες, συναισθήματα και σκέψεις είναι αποτέλεσμα της αλληλεπίδρασης με τα συστήματα (οικογένεια, διαπροσωπικές σχεσεις, εργασία, κοινωνία) και αναγνωρίζοντας τις δυνατότητες και τους περιορισμούς της ανθρώπινης φύσης αναλαμβάνει τον ρόλο του οδηγού για να επαναπροσδιορίσει στο εδώ και τώρα τον ρόλο του στην πορεία ζωής του.

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.

It is a form of psychotherapy that teaches a person to identify negative thought patterns and change them.

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

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.

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.
