About the specialist

Η Μπόθου Έλενα είναι Ψυχολόγος, απόφοιτη του Deree – The American College of Greece. Διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στην Γλυφάδα και παρέχει ατομικές συνεδρίες σε ενήλικες και εφήβους από 16 ετών και άνω, τόσο δια ζώσης όσο και online. Η προσέγγισή της είναι συνθετική και εξατομικευμένη, συνδυάζοντας στοιχεία από την κλινική υπνοθεραπεία, τη βιωματική ψυχοθεραπεία, τη φιλοσοφική συμβουλευτική, την παιγνιοθεραπεία, τη δημιουργική έκφραση και την εργασία με πεποιθήσεις. Στο θεραπευτικό πλαίσιο δίνεται έμφαση στην ασφάλεια, την εμπιστοσύνη και τον σεβασμό στον ρυθμό του κάθε ανθρώπου, ιδιαίτερα όταν υπάρχει δυσκολία στη λεκτική έκφραση ή στο άμεσο άνοιγμα. Ιδιαίτερο μέρος της δουλειάς της αποτελεί η σύνδεση ψυχολογίας, διαλογιστικής διερεύνησης και δημιουργικών θεραπευτικών εργαλείων, μέσα από ήπιες και χαμηλής έκθεσης διαδικασίες. Παράλληλα με τις ατομικές συνεδρίες, αναπτύσσει το Estia Soul Space, έναν χώρο αφιερωμένο στην αυτογνωσία, τη δημιουργική έκφραση και τη θεραπευτική συνάντηση μέσα από ατομικές και ομαδικές βιωματικές διαδικασίες. Η θεραπευτική της στάση βασίζεται στην πεποίθηση ότι ο άνθρωπος δεν χρειάζεται να “διορθωθεί”, αλλά να ακουστεί ουσιαστικά, να κατανοήσει την ιστορία του και να ξαναβρεί έναν πιο αυθεντικό τρόπο σχέσης με τον εαυτό του και τους άλλους.

About the specialist

Dimitris Aggelopoulos is a psychotherapist and educator specializing in Group Analysis. In his private practice, located in the center of Athens, he provides individual and group psychotherapy to individuals facing challenges in their personal lives, relationships, or mental health. His goal is not only the relief of symptoms, but also the emergence of each unique individual and the discovery of new ways of behavior and perception, focusing on healthy relationships and a sense of fulfillment.

He firmly believes that psychological difficulties are not solely individual problems, but mirrors of society, the relationships, and the groups within which we live and interact. Through Group Analysis, he utilizes the function of the group to facilitate the revealing of hidden aspects of the self, offering honest feedback and creating a space where individuals can express themselves freely, without fear of judgment. The group operates as a microcosm of relationships – a dynamic reality in which changes do not remain theoretical, but significantly impact the members’ broader lives.

Dimitris Aggelopoulos fosters an environment of safety and trust, where each person has the opportunity to face their challenges and cultivate the distinctive characteristics of their personality. Psychotherapy is not a luxury, but a vital investment in the relationship with ourselves and others.

Η Μαρία Τσίρμπα είναι Σύμβουλος Ψυχικής Υγείας και Σταδιοδρομίας και διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στη Θεσσαλονίκη.

Εκεί υποδέχεται ανθρώπους που θέλουν να διαχειριστούν το άγχος, τον θυμό, τη θλίψη ή βρίσκονται σε αδιέξοδο. Ανθρώπους που έχουν δυσκολίες στις σχέσεις τους αλλά και όσους βρίσκονται σε αναζήτηση κατεύθυνσης στην προσωπική ή επαγγελματική τους ζωή. Μέσα από τη Συνθετική προσέγγιση, βοηθά τον κάθε άνθρωπο να κατανοήσει καλύτερα τον εαυτό του, να ενισχύσει την αυτοπεποίθηση, να βελτιώσει την επικοινωνία και να αποκτήσει μια πιο ισορροπημένη και αυθεντική σχέση με τον εαυτό και τους άλλους.

Παράλληλα, στηρίζει εφήβους και ενήλικες στη διαδικασία επαγγελματικού προσανατολισμού και σχεδιασμού σταδιοδρομίας — από την επιλογή σπουδών μέχρι την επανατοποθέτηση στην αγορά εργασίας — με στόχο την ενδυνάμωση, τη σαφήνεια και τη μείωση του άγχους μπροστά σε σημαντικές αποφάσεις ζωής.

Αρχικά σπούδασε Μάρκετινγκ, όμως η ανάγκη της να κατανοήσει βαθύτερα τον άνθρωπο την οδήγησε στη Συνθετική Συμβουλευτική Ψυχικής Υγείας στο Κέντρο Εφαρμοσμένης Συμβουλευτικής και Ψυχοθεραπείας.

Έκτοτε, έχει εξειδικευτεί στη Συμβουλευτική Επαγγελματικού Προσανατολισμού και στην Εφαρμογή της Συμβουλευτικής Ψυχολογίας στην Εκπαίδευση, τα Παιδιά και τους Εφήβους του Εθνικού και Καποδιστριακού Πανεπιστημίου Αθηνών.

Παρακολουθεί συνεχώς επιμορφώσεις και σεμινάρια που αφορούν την ψυχολογία εφήβων και ενηλίκων, ψυχοθεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις αλλά και τη σταδιοδρομία και τον επαγγελματικό προσανατολισμό, πιστεύοντας ότι η γνώση είναι ένα ταξίδι χωρίς τέλος.
