Το AXIOM - Ινστιτούτο Ψυχικής Υγείας είναι ένας χώρος ψυχολογίας, ψυχοθεραπείας και εκπαίδευσης στη Θεσσαλονίκη, με ιδρυτή και Clinical Director τον Κλινικό Ψυχολόγο Θεόδωρο Δημητριάδη.

Κεντρική θέση στη θεραπευτική και επιστημονική προσέγγιση του Ινστιτούτου κατέχει το Triple Focus Model, που έχει αναπτυχθεί από τον Θεόδωρο Δημητριάδη. Το μοντέλο προσεγγίζει τον άνθρωπο μέσα από τρεις αλληλένδετους άξονες: τη σκέψη, το συναίσθημα και τη συμπεριφορά. Μέσα από αυτή την οπτική, το AXIOM εστιάζει όχι μόνο στην αντιμετώπιση του εκάστοτε συμπτώματος, αλλά στην κατανόηση των επαναλαμβανόμενων μοτίβων και της προσωπικής ιστορίας που βρίσκεται πίσω από αυτά.

Βασική φιλοσοφία του AXIOM είναι ότι κάθε ψυχολογικό σύμπτωμα μπορεί να αποτελεί ένδειξη ενός βαθύτερου μοτίβου και ότι πίσω από κάθε μοτίβο υπάρχει μια προσωπική ιστορία που αξίζει να κατανοηθεί και να ακουστεί. Με αυτό το πλαίσιο, το Ινστιτούτο επιδιώκει να δημιουργεί ένα ασφαλές και ουσιαστικό περιβάλλον, μέσα στο οποίο κάθε άνθρωπος μπορεί να κατανοήσει καλύτερα τον εαυτό του, να αναγνωρίσει τα μοτίβα που επαναλαμβάνονται και να οδηγηθεί σε μια πιο ουσιαστική και διαρκή αλλαγή.
