About the specialist

Η Μπόθου Έλενα είναι Ψυχολόγος, απόφοιτη του Deree – The American College of Greece. Διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στην Γλυφάδα και παρέχει ατομικές συνεδρίες σε ενήλικες και εφήβους από 16 ετών και άνω, τόσο δια ζώσης όσο και online. Η προσέγγισή της είναι συνθετική και εξατομικευμένη, συνδυάζοντας στοιχεία από την κλινική υπνοθεραπεία, τη βιωματική ψυχοθεραπεία, τη φιλοσοφική συμβουλευτική, την παιγνιοθεραπεία, τη δημιουργική έκφραση και την εργασία με πεποιθήσεις. Στο θεραπευτικό πλαίσιο δίνεται έμφαση στην ασφάλεια, την εμπιστοσύνη και τον σεβασμό στον ρυθμό του κάθε ανθρώπου, ιδιαίτερα όταν υπάρχει δυσκολία στη λεκτική έκφραση ή στο άμεσο άνοιγμα. Ιδιαίτερο μέρος της δουλειάς της αποτελεί η σύνδεση ψυχολογίας, διαλογιστικής διερεύνησης και δημιουργικών θεραπευτικών εργαλείων, μέσα από ήπιες και χαμηλής έκθεσης διαδικασίες. Παράλληλα με τις ατομικές συνεδρίες, αναπτύσσει το Estia Soul Space, έναν χώρο αφιερωμένο στην αυτογνωσία, τη δημιουργική έκφραση και τη θεραπευτική συνάντηση μέσα από ατομικές και ομαδικές βιωματικές διαδικασίες. Η θεραπευτική της στάση βασίζεται στην πεποίθηση ότι ο άνθρωπος δεν χρειάζεται να “διορθωθεί”, αλλά να ακουστεί ουσιαστικά, να κατανοήσει την ιστορία του και να ξαναβρεί έναν πιο αυθεντικό τρόπο σχέσης με τον εαυτό του και τους άλλους.

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.

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.

What it is

Humanistic therapy is a form of psychotherapy in which self-awareness and self-acceptance are considered the keys to personal growth. It emphasizes creativity, collaboration and interaction between the individual and the therapist, using techniques such as role-play.

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.

How it could benefit you

It improves self-awareness and self-confidence, helps you understand how your past affects your present, how to deal effectively with stressful situations, improves human relationships and helps you better manage your emotions.

Psychodynamic psychotherapy

What it is

Psychodynamic psychotherapy is talk therapy that aims to understand current thoughts and feelings through the behaviours shaped by past experiences and the past.

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.

How it could benefit you

It helps people to live a healthier life. There may be things in a person's unconscious that they are not aware of that cause them pain or keep them stuck in the past. Identifying these and understanding them can lead you to move forward.

Systemic psychotherapy
mental health

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.
