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.

Βοηθάμε τους γονείς να βρουν λύση σε οτιδήποτε τους απασχολεί με το παιδί τους, από 0 έως 18 ετών, προσωποποιημένα στην οικογένειά τους, με βαθιά γνώση γύρω από τη διαπαιδαγώγηση και βασισμένοι στις τελευταίες επιστημονικές εξελίξεις.

Ειδικευόμαστε στην Συμβουλευτική Γονέων που πιστεύουμε ότι αποτελεί το πρώτο βήμα στην αντιμετώπιση οποιουδήποτε ζητήματος στην οικογένεια. Και δεν μένουμε στη θεωρία. Μοιραζόμαστε πρακτικούς τρόπους και δοκιμασμένες τακτικές που μπορούν οι γονείς να υιοθετήσουν για να δουν πολύ γρήγορα τις αλλαγές που θέλουν στην οικογένειά τους.

Ζητήματα όπως το άγχος και η επιθετικότητα, η αποτελεσματική οριοθέτηση, ο ύπνος, το φαγητό και οι φυσικές ανάγκες, η προσκόλληση, η συνεργασία των γονέων στη διαπαιδαγώγηση, αλλά και ζητήματα γύρω από τη χρήση οθονών, την κοινωνικοποίηση, το σχολείο και τις σχολικές επιδόσεις, τον σχολικό εκφοβισμό, οικογενειακές κρίσεις, κ.ά., βρίσκονται στο επίκεντρο της δουλειάς μας.

Μέσα από τη συνεργασία μας, οι γονείς μαθαίνουν τη φιλοσοφία και τη λογική πίσω από τη Θετική Διαπαιδαγώγηση, τον ενδεδειγμένο πλέον τρόπο καθοδήγησης των παιδιών, χωρίς συμβατικές μεθόδους όπως η τιμωρία, οι φωνές, οι απειλές, οι δωροδοκίες, κ.ά. Οι γονείς εξοικειώνονται σταδιακά με τη νέα προσέγγιση, μαθαίνουν πρακτικούς τρόπους για το πώς μπορούν να υποστηρίξουν το παιδί τους σε κάθε πρόκληση που αντιμετωπίζει, χτίζουν μαζί του μία ζεστή, υποστηρικτική σχέση, και βλέπουν το κλίμα στην οικογένειά τους να μεταμορφώνεται.

Η Συμβουλευτική Γονέων στο Parenting.Today δεν μένει στη θεωρία. Εστιάζει στην πράξη, δίνοντας στους γονείς συγκεκριμένα εργαλεία και πρακτικές εφαρμογές επιστημονικά τεκμηριωμένες, που αποσκοπούν στην βέλτιστη υποστήριξη των παιδιών καθώς μεγαλώνουν. Η συμβουλευτική γίνεται από εξειδικευμένους συμβούλους γονέων σε ιδιωτικές διαδικτυακές συναντήσεις των 50 λεπτών.

Ξεκινήστε ακόμα και αυθημερόν, επιλέγοντας την ώρα που σάς εξυπηρετεί!

Η Θετική Διαπαιδαγώγηση:

1.Διαμορφώνει ένα κλίμα αμοιβαίου σεβασμού στην οικογένεια.

2.Δίνει στα παιδιά το εσωτερικό κίνητρο για να ακολουθούν την καθοδήγηση των γονιών τους.

3.Τα παιδιά τα πάνε καλύτερα στο σχολείο, έχουν λιγότερα προβλήματα συμπεριφοράς και καλύτερη συναισθηματική υγεία μεγαλώνοντας.

4.Ενισχύει την αυτοπεποίθηση των παιδιών, καλλιεργεί την αυτονομία τους και τα προετοιμάζει κατάλληλα για την εφηβεία και την ενήλικη ζωή.

5.Βοηθάει τους γονείς να είναι πιο ευαίσθητοι και υποστηρικτικοί για τα παιδιά τους, πιο ήρεμοι και πιο χαρούμενοι στον γονικό τους ρόλο.

Οι μεταπτυχιακές του σπουδές στο Εθνικό και Καποδιστριακό Πανεπιστήμιο Αθηνών αφορούν την πρόληψη και την προαγωγή της ψυχικής υγείας. Όσον αφορά την ψυχοθεραπεία, έχει εξειδίκευση στη Γνωσιακή – Συμπεριφορική ψυχοθεραπεία (Ινστιτούτο Έρευνας και Θεραπείας της Συμπεριφοράς, πρόεδρος Καλαντζή-Αζίζι Αναστασία, Ομότιμη Καθηγήτρια Κλινικής Ψυχολογίας, Πανεπιστήμιο Αθηνών) και στη Συστημική – Υπαρξιακή ψυχοθεραπεία (Εκπαιδευτικό Κέντρο Συστημικής και Υπαρξιακής Ψυχοθεραπείας, πρόεδρος Καραγιάννης Δημήτρης, ψυχίατρος – ψυχοθεραπευτής).

Η Συστημική – Υπαρξιακή Θεραπεία συμβάλλει στο να κατανοήσει το άτομο τα προβλήματα σχέσης και οικογένειας που δημιουργούνται καθώς εντοπίζει τα λάθη που το ίδιο κάνει στην αλληλεπίδραση και στο πώς σχετίζεται με τους άλλους ανθρώπους, συνδέοντας παράλληλα πώς ο ίδιος έχει επηρεαστεί από την οικογένεια στην οποία μεγάλωσε. Η Υπαρξιακή Ψυχοθεραπεία κινητοποιεί τον άνθρωπο να αξιοποιήσει τις δυνατότητές του, να τις εξελίξει σε ικανότητες και να βιώσει ολοκλήρωση και ευχαρίστηση στη ζωή του. Οπότε ο συνδυασμός των παραπάνω ψυχοθεραπευτικών προσεγγίσεων βοηθάει με τον καλύτερο τρόπο τον άνθρωπο αγγίζοντας τον εις βάθος. Εκτός από την ψυχοθεραπεία, η οποία είναι η βασική του επαγγελματική δραστηριότητα, ο Αργύρης Θεοδωρόπουλος έχει εργαστεί σε διάφορα δημόσια και ιδιωτικά πλαίσια (σχολεία, νοσοκομεία, κλινικές κ.ά.).
