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.
