Η Τσούση Νίκη είναι Ψυχολόγος – Ψυχοθεραπεύτρια με μεταπτυχιακή εξειδίκευση στην Ψυχολογία της Υγείας από τo Τμήμα Ιατρικής και Επιστημών Υγείας του Πανεπιστημίου του Surrey της Μ. Βρετανίας.

Στο ιδιωτικό της γραφείο, επί της οδού Ριζάρη 32 στο Παγκράτι, πλησίον μετρό «Ευαγγελισμός», παρέχει ψυχοθεραπευτική υποστήριξη σε ενήλικες και εφήβους άνω των 16 ετών αλλά και συμβουλευτική γονέων. Αντιμετωπίζονται αιτήματα που σχετίζονται με αγχώδεις διαταραχές - κρίσεις πανικού, ιδεοψυχαναγκαστική διαταραχή, φοβίες, αγοραφοβία, άγχος υγείας -, καταθλιπτικό συναίσθημα, τραυματικές εμπειρίες και απώλειες, διατροφικές διαταραχές, καθώς και επαναλαμβανόμενα συναισθηματικά ή διαπροσωπικά μοτίβα που επηρεάζουν τη σχέση με τον εαυτό και τους άλλους. Παράλληλα, υποστηρίζονται ψυχοθεραπευτικά άτομα που ζουν με χρόνιες νόσους ή/και οι φροντιστές τους , άτομα που δυσκολεύονται με την οριοθέτηση, την αυτοεκτίμηση, τη διαχείριση του θυμού , την αναβλητικότητα αλλά και τον αναμηρυκασμό της σκέψης. Το θεραπευτικό της πεδίο απευθύνεται με ασφάλεια και σεβασμό στη ΛΟΑΤΚΙ+ κοινότητα, προσφέροντας ένα επιβεβαιωτικό πλαίσιο .

Στο πλαίσιο της συνεχιζόμενης επιμόρφωσης της, έχει εξειδικευτεί στην εξατομίκευση της θεραπείας ανάλογα με τις ανάγκες του κάθε θεραπευόμενου, ενσωματώνοντας εργαλεία όπως:

·      Γνωσιακή Συμπεριφορική Θεραπεία με Εξειδίκευση στην Ψυχολογία της Υγείας

·      Εστιασμένη στο Σχήμα Γνωσιακή Συμπεριφορική Θεραπεία (Schema-Focused CBT)

·      Θεραπεία Εστιασμένη στη Συμπόνια (Compassion Focused Therapy – CFT)

·      Πρακτική της Ενσυνειδητότητας (Μindfulness)

·      Female-Specific Γνωσιακή Συμπεριφορική Θεραπεία, η οποία εστιάζει στις ιδιαιτερότητες της ψυχικής υγείας των γυναικών, (π.χ. περιγεννητική ψυχική υγεία, απώλεια κύησης, εμμηνόπαυση, caregiving – που αφορά κυρίως αλλά όχι αποκλειστικά γυναίκες – και εμπειρίες σεξουαλικής παραβίασης που εμφανίζονται συχνότερα σε γυναικείους πληθυσμούς).

 

Έχει ολοκληρώσει εκπαίδευση στη Γνωσιακή Συμπεριφορική Θεραπεία για την Ψυχολογία της Υγείας (CBT for Health Psychology), στο πλαίσιο προγράμματος συνεργασίας του Βρετανικού Εθνικού Συστήματος Υγείας (NHS) με το Πανεπιστήμιο του Surrey. Η συγκεκριμένη κατεύθυνση δίνει χώρο στις σύνθετες εμπειρίες των ανθρώπων που ζουν με χρόνιες ασθένειες, καθώς και των φροντιστών τους, ενδυναμώνοντάς τους μέσα από την εκπαίδευση σε δεξιότητες επικοινωνίας συγκεκριμένων μοντέλων όπως το Doctor–Patient Communication Model, την εκπαίδευση/υιοθέτηση του Μοντέλου Ενεργού Ασθενούς (Active Patient Model), καθώς και μέσα από άλλα εξατομικευμένα πρωτόκολλα διαχείρισης, προσαρμοσμένα στις ιδιαίτερες ανάγκες του καθενός.

Έπίσης, η ίδια , έχει παρακολουθήσει εξειδικευμένη επιμόρφωση στην «Ψυχοεκπαίδευση και Συμπεριφορική Θεραπεία Οικογένειας», από την Α’ Κλινική του Αιγινήτειου Νοσοκομείου, Ιατρικής Σχολής ΕΚΠΑ, καθώς και παρακολούθηση σειράς βιωματικών εργαστηρίων στο Βερολίνο, τόσο με την C. Padesky, με έμφαση στην ανάπτυξη της ψυχικής ανθεκτικότητας σε περιόδους αντιξοότητας (How to Build Resilience in Times of Adversity), όσο και με την J. Beck, εστιάζοντας στη θεραπευτική σχέση και την ενδυνάμωση του θεραπευτή στο εδώ-και-τώρα της συνάντησης.

 

Εργασιακά , από το 2013 έως σήμερα, έχει ακολουθήσει μια πορεία στον χώρο της ψυχικής υγείας με έμφαση στην υποστήριξη ευάλωτων πληθυσμών σε ποικίλα θεσμικά και πολιτισμικά περιβάλλοντα, στην Ελλάδα και το εξωτερικό.

Στο Ηνωμένο Βασίλειο εργάστηκε ως Assistant Psychologist στη Μονάδα Φοιτητικής Μέριμνας του Πανεπιστημίου Portsmouth Student Health and Wellbeing Service, καθώς και ως Research Assistant στο Τμήμα Αναπτυξιακής Ψυχολογίας της Σχολής Κοινωνικών Επιστημών, υπό την επίβλεψη της καθηγήτριας V. Devonshire.

Στον Διεθνή Οργανισμό Μετανάστευσης του ΟΗΕ (IOM), εργάστηκε ως Ψυχολόγος Πεδίου στο πλαίσιο Ψυχοκοινωνικής Υποστήριξης (Μental Health and PsychoSocial Support -MHPSS), παρέχοντας κλινική υποστήριξη σε πληθυσμούς που έχουν υποστεί σοβαρές μορφές τραύματος, όπως επιζώντες πολέμου, επιζώντες Έμφυλης και Σεξουαλικής Βίας (Victims of Violence) (Victims of Sexual Viοlence) , Εμπορίας Ανθρώπων (Victims of Trafficking) και Βασανιστηρίων (Victims of Torture). Το έργο της αναπτύχθηκε σε πολυπολιτισμικό πλαίσιο και απαιτούσε ευαισθησία, σταθερότητα και υψηλή επαγγελματική συγκρότηση.

Στο πλαίσιο της συνεργασίας της με δομές παιδικής προστασίας όπως η ΑΜΚΕ Συνύπαρξις της Ιεράς Συνόδου ,είχε αναλάβει τον ρόλο εξουσιοδοτημένου προσώπου αναφοράς ανηλίκων κατόπιν σχετικής εισαγγελικής εξουσιοδότησης. Εξειδικεύτηκε στη διενέργεια εκτιμήσεων του Βέλτιστου Συμφέροντος του Παιδιού (Best Interest Assessments), με γνώμονα τη Σύμβαση της Γενεύης και τις προβλέψεις του Κανονισμού του Δουβλίνου για την οικογενειακή επανένωση ασυνόδευτων ανηλίκων, εντός του ευρωπαϊκού πλαισίου προστασίας. Οι παρεμβάσεις της εστίαζαν στην ψυχοσυναισθηματική αποκατάσταση παιδιών και εφήβων που είχαν βιώσει πολλαπλές μορφές απώλειας, αστάθειας ή μετακίνησης λόγω πολέμου.

 

Επιπροσθέτως, έχει εργαστεί στον Διεθνή Οργανισμό Caritas Internationalis της Καθολικής Εκκλησίας , στη ΜΚΟ Ευρωπαϊκή Έκφραση (Δομή Παιδικής Προστασίας) και σε Κέντρο Κοινότητας δήμου, στο πλαίσιο προγραμμάτων κοινωνικής προστασίας του Υπουργείου Εργασίας και Κοινωνικής Αλληλεγγύης.

Σήμερα, παράλληλα με την ιδιωτική της πρακτική, είναι επιστημονική συνεργάτιδα του Τμήματος Θεραπείας Ενηλίκων του Ινστιτούτου Έρευνας και Θεραπείας της Συμπεριφοράς (ΙΕΘΣ), όπου συνεχίζει να ασκεί το κλινικό της έργο με έμφαση στις Γνωσιακές Συμπεριφορικές Θεραπείες.
