Ο Κοψαλής Δημήτρης BSc είναι Ψυχολόγος και παρέχει Συστημική ψυχοθεραπεία σε ενήλικες, παιδιά, έφηβους και ζευγάρια στο ιδιωτικό του γραφείο στο Nέο Ψυχικό, πλησίον της Κατεχάκη.

Ολοκλήρωσε τις σπουδές του στην Ψυχολογία από το London Metropolitan College και εκπαιδεύεται στη Συστημική Ψυχοθεραπεία, στο Κέντρο Εφαρμοσμένης Ψυχοθεραπείας και Συμβουλευτικής. Προσεγγίζει κάθε θεραπευτική σχέση με σεβασμό στη μοναδικότητα του ανθρώπου που έχει απέναντί του. Δεν πιστεύει στις έτοιμες λύσεις ή στις γενικές συμβουλές, αλλά στη δύναμη της συνεργασίας, του διαλόγου και της κοινής διερεύνησης καθώς η ψυχοθεραπεία για εκείνον είναι μια ουσιαστική συνάντηση δύο ανθρώπων. Πιστεύει ότι κάθε άνθρωπος έχει τη δική του μοναδική ιστορία και ότι η κατανόηση των δυσκολιών του χρειάζεται να γίνεται μέσα από τις εμπειρίες, τις σχέσεις και το πλαίσιο της ζωής του.

Στόχος του είναι να δημιουργήσει έναν χώρο όπου ο άνθρωπος θα μπορεί να εκφραστεί με ειλικρίνεια, να κατανοήσει βαθύτερα τον εαυτό του και να κάνει ουσιαστικά βήματα προς την αλλαγή που επιθυμεί.

She works with adults, adolescents, and couples on issues such as anxiety, depression, emotional difficulties, interpersonal relationships, and life transitions, as well as more complex psychological challenges.
