Έχει, επίσης, παρακολουθήσει μετεκπαιδευτικά σεμινάρια σε θέματα ψυχικής υγείας, μεταξύ των οποίων η «Κλινική Ψυχοπαθολογία» από το ΕΠΙΨΥ και η «Στήριξη και συμβουλευτική πένθους για παιδιά, εφήβους και οικογένειες που θρηνούν» από τη Μέριμνα. Διαθέτει πολυετή επαγγελματική εμπειρία σε δομές των Ενόπλων Δυνάμεων, συμπεριλαμβανομένων πρωτοβάθμιων μονάδων υγείας και κέντρων ψυχικής υγείας.

Ο Τσιώλης Νικόλαος είναι Ψυχολόγος και διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στο Νέο Ηράκλειο Αττικής. Είναι απόφοιτος του Τμήματος Ψυχολογίας του Παντείου Πανεπιστημίου Κοινωνικών και Πολιτικών Επιστημών. Η επιστημονική και ψυχοθεραπευτική του διαδρομή είναι σταθερά προσανατολισμένη στην υποστήριξη ευάλωτων πληθυσμών, στη βαθιά προσπάθεια κατανόησης και ερμηνείας της ανθρώπινης συμπεριφοράς και στη διαρκή εμβάθυνση των ψυχοδυναμικών διεργασιών που διαμορφώνουν τον ψυχισμό του ανθρώπου.

Τον Σεπτέμβριο του 2026 ξεκίνησε το ΠΜΣ στην Ψυχική Υγεία Παιδιού και εφήβου του Ευρωπαϊκού Πανεπιστημίου της Κύπρου.

Από το 2023 φοιτά στο τετραετές πρόγραμμα εκπαίδευσης στη Συστημική Ψυχοθεραπεία στο Εργαστήριο Διερεύνησης Ανθρώπινων Σχέσεων (Ε.Ε.). Η συστημική προσέγγιση, με την εστίασή της στις σχέσεις, τις παθογένειες και τα δυναμικά κάθε συστήματος, εμπλουτίζει καθοριστικά τη ψυχοθεραπευτική του ματιά και ενισχύει την κατανόηση του ατόμου ως φορέα νοήματος και εμπλοκής μέσα σε ευρύτερα κοινωνικά και οικογενειακά πλαίσια. Η συστημική ψυχοθεραπευτική προσέγγιση και η ειδίκευσή του σε αυτήν συμβάλλει σε μια ολιστική ψυχοθεραπευτική παρέμβαση με επίκεντρο το άτομο και τις σημαντικές για εκείνο διαπροσωπικές του σχέσεις.

Παράλληλα, παρακολουθεί σε τακτική βάση επιμορφωτικά σεμινάρια με επίκεντρο την ψυχαναλυτική ψυχοθεραπεία, τα οποία λειτουργούν για εκείνον ως χώρος στοχασμού και εμβάθυνσης στις ασυνείδητες πτυχές της ψυχικής λειτουργίας. Η ψυχαναλυτική σκέψη παραμένει για τον ίδιο θεμέλιο στη ψυχοθεραπευτική προσέγγιση, προσφέροντας γλώσσα και εργαλείο για την κατανόηση της ενδοψυχικής ζωής, της επανάληψης, της επιθυμίας και του τραύματος.

Η συνθετική οπτική που προσφέρεται από τη διαρκής του επιμόρφωση στα δυο αυτά ψυχοθεραπευτικά μοντέλα αποτελεί αρωγό για την βέλτιστη παροχή υπηρεσιών με επιστημονική κατάρτιση και ανθρωποκεντρικό προσανατολισμό.

Στο πλαίσιο της ακαδημαϊκής του δραστηριότητας, συντονίζει για δύο διαδοχικά εξάμηνα στο Πάντειο Πανεπιστήμιο Κοινωνικών και Πολιτικών Επιστημών την εφαρμογή του Προγράμματος Ομαδικής Συμβουλευτικής, με τίτλο «Ποια είναι η δική σου υπερδύναμη;», με τη συμμετοχή προπτυχιακών φοιτητών. Το έργο αυτό εστιάζει στη μελέτη των δυνατών στοιχείων του χαρακτήρα του κάθε ατόμου το πως αυτά επηρεάζουν την αυτοεικόνα και την καριέρα του και πως γνωρίζοντας τα μπορεί να τα εφαρμόσει σε ένα ομαδικό πλαίσιο, με τη χρήση βιωματικών ασκήσεων.

Το 2020, πραγματοποίησε την πρακτική του άσκηση στον Συμβουλευτικό Σταθμό του Δήμου Πετρούπολης, όπου είχε την ευκαιρία να ασκηθεί στην ψυχολογική αξιολόγηση, στη λήψη ιστορικού και στη συμβουλευτική στήριξη πολιτών που απευθύνονταν στη δομή. Υπό τη συνεχή εποπτεία διεπιστημονικής ομάδας, συμμετείχε ενεργά στη διαμόρφωση θεραπευτικών πλάνων, αναπτύσσοντας δεξιότητες σύνδεσης, κατανόησης και ανάλυσης σύνθετων κλινικών δεδομένων.

Το 2021, προσέφερε εθελοντικά τις υπηρεσίες μου στον ΟΚΑΝΑ (Οργανισμός Κατά των Ναρκωτικών) και ειδικότερα στο Κέντρο Εποπτευόμενης Χρήσης «ΣΤΕΚΙ 46», στο πλαίσιο παρεμβάσεων μείωσης της βλάβης. Συμμετείχε σε ατομικές συνεδρίες με ενεργούς χρήστες, σε παρεμβάσεις συναισθηματικής αποφόρτισης και σε δράσεις «street work». Το έργο αυτό τον έφερε σε επαφή με την πραγματικότητα του κοινωνικού αποκλεισμού και της εξάρτησης, ενισχύοντας την κατανόησή του για την ψυχική δυσφορία σε περιβάλλοντα αυξημένου κινδύνου.

Από τον Ιανουάριο του 2024 έως σήμερα, εργάζεται ως Ψυχολόγος στο «Χατζηπατέρειο» Κέντρο Αποκατάστασης και Στήριξης Παιδιού (Ίδρυμα Κοινωνικής Εργασίας). Εδώ, έχει την ευθύνη για τη διεξαγωγή ατομικών και ομαδικών συνεδριών ψυχολογικής υποστήριξης σε παιδιά και τις οικογένειές τους, τη συμμετοχή σε διεπιστημονικές ομάδες αξιολόγησης, καθώς και σε εποπτικές ομάδες προσωπικού με την συνεργασία παιδοψυχιάτρου. Έχει αναλάβει τη θέση του Υπευθύνου Παιδικής Προστασίας, καθώς και τον συντονισμό του προγράμματος εθελοντισμού και πρακτικής άσκησης του Κέντρου. Επιπλέον, διενεργεί ψυχολογικές αξιολογήσεις παιδιών με τη χρήση του ψυχομετρικού εργαλείου WISC-V, συμβάλλοντας στην ολιστική κατανόηση των αναγκών και δυνατοτήτων τους.
