About the specialist

Ο Κρέων Βασιληάς είναι Ψυχολόγος Ψυχαναλυτικής Προσέγγισης και διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στο Κολωνάκι, πλησίον του Ευαγγελισμού. Είναι πτυχιούχος Ψυχολογίας του Εθνικού και Καποδιστριακού Πανεπιστήμιου Αθηνών και κατέχει μεταπτυχιακό δίπλωμα στην Πολιτική Επιστήμη και Κοινωνιολογία από το ίδιο ίδρυμα. Συνδυάζει την ψυχαναλυτική θεωρία και την κλινική πρακτική με μια ευρύτερη κοινωνιολογική και φιλοσοφική θεώρηση του υποκειμένου και των σχέσεων που αυτό επιχειρεί να συνάψει. Η ψυχοθεραπευτική προσέγγιση που προτείνει επικεντρώνεται στη διερεύνηση της δυσφορίας, του τραύματος και της οδύνης μέσα από την κατανόηση των εσώτερων συγκρούσεων που τα υποκινούν ή τα υποστηρίζουν. Η δημιουργία ενός ασφαλούς ψυχοδυναμικού χώρου λόγου και σκέψης καθίσταται η συνθήκη δυνατότητας για να μπορέσει σταδιακά ο αναλυόμενος να αναλάβει πιο αποφασιστικά και με υπευθυνότητα την ίδια του την επιθυμία. Στον ενδιάμεσο τόπο, που διανοίγεται εκείθεν του ιατρικού βλέμματος, μεταξύ της ανάπτυξης της προσωπικότητας του θεραπευόμενου και της δημιουργίας ρωγμών στο νόημα, που συγκροτεί το σύμπτωμα ή τη συμπεριφορά του, τίθεται το αναλυτικό στοίχημα.

Έχει εκπαιδευτεί στη διαφοροδιάγνωση των ψυχοπαθολογιών στο Ψυχιατρικό Νοσοκομείο Αττικής και έχει εργαστεί σε Κέντρα Ημέρας στο Δήμο της Αθήνας. Επιπλέον, συνέχισε την κατάρτισή του για τέσσερα χρόνια σε εκπαιδευτικές ομάδες Ψυχοδράματος και Υπαρξιακής Ψυχοθεραπείας. Με δωδεκαετή εμπλοκή στο χώρο της Ψυχανάλυσης στην Αθήνα και το Παρίσι, καθώς και σεμιναριακές σπουδές στην Ιστορία της Μεταφυσικής, τη Συγκριτική Λογοτεχνία και τη Θεολογία, ειδικεύεται στην Ψυχοδυναμική Ψυχοθεραπεία. Έχει λάβει μέρος σε διεθνή συνέδρια, μεταξύ των οποίων το «Deleuze and Guattari: Refrains of Freedom», ενώ δίδαξε επίσης Δυτική Πολιτική Φιλοσοφία στην Ινδονησία, στο Universitas Muhammadiyah Malang. Επιδιώκει τη διαρκή επιμόρφωσή του παρακολουθώντας εξειδικευμένα σεμινάρια στο πεδίο της ψυχικής υγείας και παράλληλα συμμετέχει στις εργασίες του ψυχαναλυτικού συλλόγου Freud-Lacan. Πραγματοποιεί ατομικές συνεδρίες ενηλίκων και εφήβων δια ζώσης ή εξ αποστάσεως μέσω βιντεοκλήσης κατόπιν ραντεβού.

Πιο συγκεκριμένα, αναλαμβάνει περιστατικά που θα ενέπιπταν στις παρακάτω ταξινομικές κατηγορίες: Κατάθλιψη και διαταραχές διάθεσης· Άγχος, κρίσεις πανικού και διαταραχές άγχους· Φοβίες· Ιδεοψυχαναγκαστικές δυσκολίες και καταναγκαστικές συμπεριφορές· Πένθος και διαχείριση απώλειας· Διαταραχές διατροφής· Εθισμός στο διαδίκτυο ή/και στα ηλεκτρονικά παιχνίδια (gaming)· Ψυχοσωματικά συμπτώματα· Δυσκολίες ένταξης στο κοινωνικό πλαίσιο και εκφοβισμός (bullying)· Εξαρτήσεις (ουσίες, συμπεριφορές, σχέσεις)· Χαμηλή αυτοεκτίμηση και κρίση ταυτότητας· Τραυματικές εμπειρίες και ψυχικό τραύμα· Προβλήματα στις διαπροσωπικές σχέσεις και δυσκολίες στην επικοινωνία.
