About the specialist

Η Μαρία Σαββίδου είναι Ψυχολόγος, Κλινικής - Κοινωνικής κατεύθυνσης και κάτοχος Άδειας Ασκήσεως Επαγγέλματος Ψυχολόγου. Αποφοίτησε από το Αριστοτέλειο Πανεπιστήμιο Θεσσαλονίκης (2009), ενώ έλαβε υποτροφία από το University of Groningen της Ολλανδίας. Από το 2016, διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στο κέντρο της Θεσσαλονίκης, όπου παρέχει υπηρεσίες ψυχολογικής υποστήριξης σε ενήλικες, εφήβους και παιδιά.

Εξειδικεύτηκε στην Μουσικοθεραπεία (ΜΑ) στο τμήμα Μουσικής και Κοινωνίας του Πανεπιστημίου Μακεδονίας και η θεραπευτική της προσέγγιση βασίζεται στο ανθρωπιστικό μοντέλο, με κεντρικούς άξονες την αποδοχή, την ενσυναίσθηση και την αυθεντική θεραπευτική σχέση. Παράλληλα, αξιοποιεί και στοιχεία από διαφορετικές θεωρητικές προσεγγίσεις, όπως είναι η Ψυχανάλυση, η Γνωστική - συμπεριφορική θεραπεία (CBT) και η Νευροψυχολογία, ανάλογα με το εξατομικευμένο πλάνο και το θεραπευτικό αίτημα. Ακόμη, μέσα από την κλινική της εμπειρία, εξειδικεύτηκε στις μαθησιακές δυσκολίες, την κατάθλιψη και τις διαταραχές άγχους.

Σημαντικό σταθμό στην πορεία της αποτελεί η κλινική της άσκηση στην Παιδοψυχιατρική Κλινική του Νοσοκομείου Παπανικολάου Θεσσαλονίκης, όπου εργάστηκε ως Μουσικοθεραπεύτρια και συνέβαλε στη διαμόρφωση και εφαρμογή καινοτόμων θεραπευτικών παρεμβάσεων σε πανελλήνιο επίπεδο.

Επέλεξε επίσης να εξειδικευτεί και στη Συμβουλευτική Σταδιοδρομίας, καθώς πιστεύει ότι η επαγγελματική ζωή είναι πολύ σημαντική και δύναται να επηρεάσει την ψυχικής μας υγεία. Η δυνατότητα να υποστηρίζει εφήβους και ενήλικες σε κρίσιμες αποφάσεις ζωής και να τους βοηθάει να ενισχύσουν την αυτογνωσία τους, αλλά και να ευθυγραμμίσουν τις επιλογές με τις αξίες τους και τις δυνατότητές τους, αποτέλεσε για εκείνη μια προέκταση του θεραπευτικού της έργου.

Επιπλέον, έχει εργαστεί στο Συμβουλευτικό Σταθμό Νέων Ν. Κοζάνης, στο Πρόγραμμα Προαγωγής Αυτοβοήθειας (ΑΠΘ), στο Κέντρο Πρόληψης και Συμβουλευτικής Θεσσαλονίκης και σε άλλες εθελοντικές, δημόσιες και ιδιωτικές δομές.

Η επιλογή της επιστήμης της Ψυχολογίας ήταν μια συνειδητή απόφαση από νεαρή ηλικία, καθώς είχε έντονο ενδιαφέρον για την ανθρώπινη επικοινωνία, τη συναισθηματική κατανόηση και τις διαπροσωπικές σχέσεις. Μέχρι και σήμερα, συνεχίζει να επιμορφώνεται και να είναι ενεργή στο ερευνητικό πεδίο, με σκοπό να κατανοεί σε μεγαλύτερο βάθος τον άνθρωπο - τις σκέψεις, τα συναισθήματα και τις σχέσεις του, αλλά και το πως αυτά επηρεάζονται από το εκάστοτε κοινωνικό και πολιτισμικό πλαίσιο.

Για εκείνη, η ψυχολογία δεν είναι απλά μια επαγγελματική επιλογή, αλλά μια διαρκής πορεία γνώσης και ουσιαστικής ανθρώπινης σύνδεσης. Αντιλαμβάνεται τη θεραπευτική διαδικασία ως ένα ζωντανό χώρο συνάντησης, όπου η δυσκολία μπορεί να ειπωθεί με ασφάλεια και ο άνθρωπος να ξαναβρεί τη σχέση με τον εαυτό του σε ένα πλαίσιο αποδοχής, σεβασμού και ουσιαστικής παρουσίας.

Ο Καραμανίδης Κωνσταντίνος είναι Ψυχολόγος - Ψυχοθεραπευτής και διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στη Θεσσαλονίκη. Είναι απόφοιτος του Τμήματος Ψυχολογίας του University of Nicosia και κάτοχος Μεταπτυχιακού Διπλώματος Ειδίκευσης στη Γνωστική Ψυχολογία από το Αριστοτέλειο Πανεπιστήμιο Θεσσαλονίκης, ενώ έχει εκπαιδευτεί στη Γνωσιακή Συμπεριφορική Ψυχοθεραπεία (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT), μία από τις πλέον επιστημονικά τεκμηριωμένες θεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις διεθνώς. Πιστεύει ότι η ψυχοθεραπεία δεν αφορά μόνο τη διαχείριση των δυσκολιών, αλλά και την ουσιαστική κατανόηση του εαυτού και την ανάπτυξη δεξιοτήτων που επιτρέπουν στον άνθρωπο να ζει με μεγαλύτερη ισορροπία, αυτοπεποίθηση και ψυχική ανθεκτικότητα. Για τον λόγο αυτό, δίνει ιδιαίτερη έμφαση στη δημιουργία μιας σχέσης εμπιστοσύνης, ειλικρίνειας και σεβασμού, μέσα στην οποία ο θεραπευόμενος μπορεί να αισθανθεί ασφάλεια, να εκφραστεί ελεύθερα και να εργαστεί ουσιαστικά πάνω σε όσα τον απασχολούν. Η θεραπευτική του προσέγγιση είναι εξατομικευμένη και βασίζεται στις αρχές της Γνωσιακής Συμπεριφορικής Θεραπείας, με στόχο όχι μόνο την ανακούφιση από τα συμπτώματα αλλά και την ουσιαστική αλλαγή των δυσλειτουργικών μοτίβων σκέψης και συμπεριφοράς που επηρεάζουν την καθημερινότητα. Μέσα από μια ενεργητική και συνεργατική θεραπευτική διαδικασία, οι θεραπευόμενοι αποκτούν πρακτικά εργαλεία που μπορούν να αξιοποιούν και μετά την ολοκλήρωση της θεραπείας, ενισχύοντας την αυτονομία και την ποιότητα ζωής τους.

Παρέχει υποστήριξη σε ενήλικες και εφήβους που αντιμετωπίζουν δυσκολίες όπως το άγχος, οι κρίσεις πανικού, η κατάθλιψη, οι φοβίες, η υπερβολική ανησυχία, οι δυσκολίες στις διαπροσωπικές σχέσεις, η χαμηλή αυτοεκτίμηση, η διαχείριση του στρες, οι μεταβάσεις ζωής και η ανάγκη για προσωπική ανάπτυξη και αυτογνωσία. Κάθε θεραπευτικό πλάνο σχεδιάζεται με βάση τις ανάγκες, τις αξίες και τους προσωπικούς στόχους του κάθε ανθρώπου, καθώς η θεραπεία δεν μπορεί να είναι ίδια για όλους. Στο ιδιωτικό του γραφείο στη Θεσσαλονίκη προσφέρει ένα σύγχρονο, διακριτικό και φιλόξενο θεραπευτικό περιβάλλον, όπου προτεραιότητα αποτελεί η ουσιαστική ανθρώπινη επαφή και η επιστημονικά τεκμηριωμένη φροντίδα. Παράλληλα, παρέχει τη δυνατότητα πραγματοποίησης online συνεδριών, εξυπηρετώντας θεραπευόμενους από όλη την Ελλάδα και το εξωτερικό.

Η θεραπεία αποτελεί μια ουσιαστική συνεργασία όπου φωτίζονται σκέψεις, πεποιθήσεις, συναισθήματα και πρότυπα συμπεριφοράς ενώ διερευνώνται οι ασυνείδητες ρίζες των προβλημάτων που συχνά βρίσκονται στην παιδική ηλικία. Κατά τη διάρκεια των συνεδριών, αναγνωρίζονται οι εσωτερικές ανάγκες και αναπτύσσονται υγιείς τρόποι έκφρασης και επικοινωνίας ενώ δίνεται έμφαση στη σταδιακή ενδυνάμωση και αυτογνωσία.

mental health

What it is

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a form of psychotherapy applied to problems such as depression, anxiety disorders, abuse, relationship and marriage problems, eating disorders and serious mental illness.The therapist emphasizes what is happening in the current life rather than the past and what led to the difficulties.

Approach

Identifying the distortions in a person's thinking that are causing problems and then examining these in the light of reality. Understanding the behaviour and motivations of others and using problem-solving skills to deal with difficult situations. Dealing with fears rather than avoiding them. Role-playing to better prepare for potentially problematic interactions with others. You become your own self-therapist.

How it could benefit you

Helps the individual to change dysfunctional thought patterns and behaviors. Improves your functioning and quality of life by helping to change patterns and behaviours. Teaches you to be your own self-therapist.
