Με πάνω από 15 χρόνια εμπειρίας στον χώρο της ψυχικής υγείας, διατηρώ ιδιωτικό γραφείο από το 2010, ενώ τα τελευταία δύο χρόνια δραστηριοποιούμαι ενεργά τόσο στην Καλαμάτα όσο και στην Αθήνα, προσφέροντας σύγχρονες και εξατομικευμένες υπηρεσίες ψυχοθεραπείας και συμβουλευτικής.

Είμαι Ψυχολόγος MSc και Ψυχοθεραπεύτρια, με ισχυρό ακαδημαϊκό υπόβαθρο από αναγνωρισμένα πανεπιστήμια της Αγγλίας. Κατέχω πτυχίο Ψυχολογίας (BSc in Psychology (Hons)) από το University of Bedfordshire και μεταπτυχιακό τίτλο (MSc in Counselling Psychology (Hons)) από το University of Roehampton. Η εκπαίδευσή μου δεν περιορίστηκε μόνο στη θεωρία, αλλά εστιάστηκε στην ουσιαστική κατανόηση του ανθρώπου και στην πρακτική εφαρμογή σύγχρονων θεραπευτικών προσεγγίσεων.

Σημαντικό σταθμό στην επαγγελματική μου εξέλιξη αποτελεί η τετραετής εξειδίκευσή μου στη ψυχοθεραπεία Gestalt, μέσα από το Gestalt Foundation, που διαμόρφωσε τον τρόπο με τον οποίο προσεγγίζω τον άνθρωπο ολιστικά και με σεβασμό στη μοναδικότητά του. Παράλληλα, έχω εκπαιδευτεί σε σύγχρονες, διεθνώς αναγνωρισμένες μεθόδους θεραπείας τραύματος, όπως EMDR, DBR, CRM και Brainspotting, ενισχύοντας διαρκώς το θεραπευτικό μου έργο με αποτελεσματικά εργαλεία.

Επιπλέον, η εκπαίδευσή μου στο Life Coaching με εξειδίκευση στο Relationship Coaching (ICF accredited), δίπλα στην Jill Douka (MCC), μου επιτρέπει να υποστηρίζω ουσιαστικά ανθρώπους που επιθυμούν να βελτιώσουν τις σχέσεις τους, να ενισχύσουν την αυτοπεποίθησή τους και να προχωρήσουν σε ουσιαστικές αλλαγές στη ζωή τους.

Η επαγγελματική μου πορεία περιλαμβάνει συνεργασίες με σημαντικούς οργανισμούς στην Ελλάδα και το εξωτερικό, όπως το Kingston Women’s Centre και το Wandsworth Prison Counselling Centre στο Λονδίνο, καθώς και το Δίκτυο Γυναικών Ευρώπης και το κέντρο «Κιναίσθηση» στην Αθήνα. Σήμερα, μεταξύ άλλων συνεργάζομαι με τη Hellas EAP, παρέχοντας υπηρεσίες που στοχεύουν στην ενίσχυση της ψυχικής ανθεκτικότητας και της ευεξίας στον εργασιακό χώρο.

Στο επίκεντρο της δουλειάς μου βρίσκεται πάντα ο άνθρωπος. Μέσα από μια εξατομικευμένη προσέγγιση, δημιουργώ ένα ασφαλές και υποστηρικτικό περιβάλλον, όπου κάθε θεραπευόμενος μπορεί να νιώσει εμπιστοσύνη, να κατανοήσει βαθύτερα τον εαυτό του και να προχωρήσει σε ουσιαστικές, διαρκείς αλλαγές.

Αν νιώθετε ότι ήρθε η στιγμή να επενδύσετε στον εαυτό σας, είμαι εδώ για να σας συνοδεύσω με εμπειρία, ενσυναίσθηση και επιστημονική γνώση σε αυτή τη διαδρομή.
