About the specialist

Ο Δούκας Πρωτόγηρος είναι Ψυχολόγος (Πάντειο Πανεπιστήμιο) με άδεια ασκήσεως επαγγέλματος (Αρ. Πρωτ. 1536) και τακτικό μέλος του Συλλόγου Ελλήνων Ψυχολόγων. Στο ιδιωτικό του γραφείο στα Εξάρχεια, παρέχει ατομική ψυχοθεραπεία σε ενήλικες, ενώ ειδικεύεται στην Ψυχαναλυτική / Ψυχοδυναμική Ψυχοθεραπεία μέσα από το πολυετές κλινικό πρόγραμμα του ΔΙ.ΚΕ.Ψ.Υ. Η προσέγγισή του εστιάζει στην αποκωδικοποίηση των βαθύτερων αιτιών που επηρεάζουν την καθημερινότητά μας, διευκολύνοντας μια πορεία προς την αυτογνωσία και τη σταδιακή εσωτερική ενδυνάμωση. Όπως υποστήριξε και ο Σίγκμουντ Φρόιντ: "Το να είναι κανείς απόλυτα ειλικρινής με τον εαυτό του είναι μια καλή άσκηση", και αυτή ακριβώς η ειλικρίνεια αποτελεί τον πυρήνα της θεραπευτικής εργασίας.

Η κλινική του διαδρομή διαμορφώθηκε μέσα από την πολυετή εργασία σε απαιτητικά περιβάλλοντα διεθνών οργανισμών, όπως η Διεθνής Επιτροπή Διάσωσης (International Rescue Committee) και ο Διεθνής Οργανισμός Μετανάστευσης (International Organization for Migration), προσφέροντάς του πολύτιμη εμπειρία στη διαχείριση του τραύματος, της κατάθλιψης και του άγχους. Πέρα από την αντιμετώπιση των συμπτωμάτων, η θεραπευτική διαδικασία εστιάζει στην ολόπλευρη υποστήριξη του σύγχρονου ενήλικα, καλύπτοντας ζητήματα που αφορούν την προσωπική ταυτότητα, τη σεξουαλικότητα και την αυτοεικόνα.

Η κλινική του πρακτική πλαισιώνεται από συνεχή εβδομαδιαία εποπτεία από ψυχαναλύτρια της Ελληνικής Ψυχαναλυτικής Εταιρείας, διασφαλίζοντας την επιστημονική αρτιότητα και τη δεοντολογία της διαδικασίας. Έχοντας εκπαιδευτεί στη Διαπροσωπική Θεραπεία και την Κλινική Ψυχοπαθολογία, ο Πρωτόγηρος Δούκας βοηθά στη βελτίωση της ποιότητας των διαπροσωπικών σχέσεων και την επεξεργασία σύνθετων βιωμάτων. Σε ένα περιβάλλον ασφάλειας, συμπερίληψης και εχεμύθειας, στόχος είναι να δημιουργηθεί ο απαραίτητος χώρος ώστε η εσωτερική σύγκρουση να δώσει τη θέση της σε μια πιο ήρεμη και συνειδητή καθημερινότητα. Κάθε συνεδρία αποτελεί μια ευκαιρία να ακουστεί η δική σας αλήθεια και να ξεκινήσει μια ουσιαστική συνομιλία με τον εαυτό σας.

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.

It is used for people with suicidal behavior, post-traumatic stress disorder, substance use disorder, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, ADHD, depression, anxiety.

Approach

DBT focuses on acceptance and change. It helps the person to get to know themselves better, to think about why they do what they do, without judgment. Replacing a negative behavior or habit with ones that can improve the quality of life. Dialectic is the idea that two different things can be true at the same time. At the same time as accepting yourself exactly as you are, comes the recognition of your effort to change.

Approach

Each person is a combination of mind, emotions, body and soul with unique experiences and events. No single life event, personality trait or psychological diagnosis defines you.

It is used in depression, anxiety, interpersonal problems, addictions, trauma, eating disorders, personality disorder.

Approach

Psychodynamic psychotherapy provides a space to explore and understand how unhelpful patterns from the past may be influencing our current difficulties. Defence mechanisms are explored and how our feelings and behaviours in the present are shaped by our past experiences.

What it is

Systemic psychotherapy is an approach about how the individual acts as part of a wider group or broader system of relationships: family, partner relationship, work, friendships, and social environment. This approach connects communication and interaction patterns with a problem or a difficulty that the individual may be experiencing.

Approach

Systemic psychotherapy identifies behavioral patterns within a persons’ relationships and in the way someone connects with others. It helps the individual understand themselves more effectively, along with their roles and communication style and supports them in developing more functional ways of thinking and communicating within their system.

How it could benefit you

It helps improve understanding of relationship and family dynamics. It can change dysfunctional communication and behavior patterns within the system, strengthen empathy, support the development of stronger relationships and help with managing conflicts and difficulties.
