About the specialist

Η Μπογιατζή Κωνσταντίνα είναι Κλινική Ψυχολόγος και διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στην Καλαμαριά. Είναι απόφοιτη του Τμήματος Ψυχολογίας του Αριστοτελείου Πανεπιστημίου Θεσσαλονίκης και κάτοχος Μεταπτυχιακού Τίτλου Σπουδών (MSc) στην Κλινική Ψυχολογία από το ίδιο πανεπιστήμιο. Η κλινική της εμπειρία έχει διαμορφωθεί μέσα από τη συστηματική ιδιωτική της πρακτική, με την παροχή ατομικής ψυχοθεραπείας ενηλίκων, καθώς και μέσα από τη συνεργασία με εξειδικευμένους φορείς ψυχικής υγείας (Ελληνικό Κέντρο Ψυχικής Υγιεινής και Ερευνών - Ε.ΚΕ.Ψ.Υ.Ε., Β’ Πανεπιστημιακή Ψυχιατρική Κλινική Ενηλίκων Α.Π.Θ. Πολυδύναμης Νοσηλευτικής Μονάδας Ψυχικής Υγείας Θεσσαλονίκης, Εργαστήρι Εφαρμοσμένης Ψυχολογίας του Αριστοτελείου Πανεπιστημίου Θεσσαλονίκης (Α.Π.Θ.), Εταιρεία Alzheimer, ΣΟΨΥ) και Ιδιωτικά Κέντρα Ειδικών Θεραπειών. Παράλληλα με τις ακαδημαϊκές της σπουδές, έχει ολοκληρώσει διετή εκπαίδευση στη Γνωστική-Συμπεριφορική Θεραπεία (CBT) Παιδιών και Εφήβων στην Ελληνική Εταιρεία Έρευνας της Συμπεριφοράς (ΕΕΕΣ), ενώ παρακολουθεί συστηματικά επιμορφωτικά προγράμματα που αφορούν τη διαχείριση του τραύματος, την κλινική ψυχοπαθολογία και σύγχρονες θεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις και πρακτικές.

Στην ψυχοθεραπευτική της πρακτική με ενήλικες, η ειδικός ακολουθεί τη Γνωσιακή-Συμπεριφορική προσέγγιση (CBT), αξιοποιώντας παράλληλα στοιχεία από τη Θεραπεία Σχημάτων και την Ψυχοδυναμική θεωρία. Η θεραπευτική της οπτική εστιάζει στις δυσκολίες και τις ανάγκες του ατόμου στο παρόν, λαμβάνοντας παράλληλα υπόψη την αναπτυξιακή του πορεία και τον τρόπο με τον οποίο οι εμπειρίες και οι σχέσεις σε διαφορετικές φάσεις της ζωής του μπορεί να επηρεάζουν τον τρόπο με τον οποίο αντιλαμβάνεται τον εαυτό του, διαχειρίζεται τα συναισθήματά του, σχετίζεται με τους άλλους και ανταποκρίνεται στις δυσκολίες που αντιμετωπίζει στην καθημερινότητά του.  Η εξειδικευμένη γνώση της στην αναπτυξιακή ψυχολογία και τη συμβουλευτική γονέων αποτελεί ένα επιπλέον ουσιαστικό εφόδιο στην εργασία της με ενήλικες, προσφέροντας μια βαθύτερη κατανόηση των πρώιμων συναισθηματικών δεσμών και της επίδρασής τους στη μετέπειτα συναισθηματική ζωή και τις σχέσεις του ατόμου. Η θεραπευτική της στάση διέπεται από συναισθηματική διαθεσιμότητα, ζεστασιά, ενσυναίσθηση και σεβασμό στη μοναδικότητα κάθε θεραπευόμενου. Κεντρικός στόχος είναι η δημιουργία ενός ασφαλούς χώρου έκφρασης και κατανόησης, μέσα στον οποίο το άτομο μπορεί να αποκτήσει μεγαλύτερη επίγνωση του εαυτού και των αναγκών του, να κατανοήσει και να τροποποιήσει δυσλειτουργικά μοτίβα, να επεξεργαστεί δύσκολες ή τραυματικές εμπειρίες και να εντάξει τις εμπειρίες αυτές με έναν πιο λειτουργικό τρόπο στην προσωπική του ιστορία. Ανάλογα με το θεραπευτικό αίτημα, η δουλειά μπορεί παράλληλα να εστιάζει στη διαχείριση και μείωση των συμπτωμάτων, στην ενδυνάμωση και στην προσωπική ανάπτυξη. Τέλος, η ειδικός για τη διασφάλιση της ποιότητας του θεραπευτικού έργου και την υπεύθυνη επιστημονική της πλαισίωση, βρίσκεται σε διαδικασία συνεχούς επιμόρφωσης και τακτικής επιστημονικής εποπτείας. Οι συνεδρίες πραγματοποιούνται online και δια ζώσης.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
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.

Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT)
mental health

What it is

It is a form of psychotherapy that teaches a person to identify negative thought patterns and change them. DBT reinforces the acceptance that all your thoughts are valid, as they are part of your life experiences and who you are. The person acts by doing the best they can for the moment. 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.

How it could benefit you

It helps you make positive changes in the way you act. It identifies your negative thought patterns and changes them, helping to make positive changes in the way you act. Teaches you ways to manage intense emotions and stressful thoughts when they occur.

Humanistic psychotherapy
mental health

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
mental health

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. Understanding the past can help you avoid repeating unhelpful patterns that have existed in it and facilitate your quality of life alongside relief from distressing symptoms. 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.

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.
