Σπούδασε ψυχολογία στο πανεπιστήμιο Wrexham, Glyndwr University of Wales και έπειτα πραγματοποίησε μεταπτυχιακές σπουδές στην Κλινική Ψυχολογία στο πανεπιστήμιο της Ουτρέχτης στην Ολλανδία. Έχει ολοκληρώσει τετραετή εκπαίδευση στη Γνωσιακή-Συμπεριφοριστική Ψυχοθεραπεία στην Εταιρεία Γνωσιακών Συμπεριφοριστικών Σπουδών, σύμφωνα με τα κριτήρια της European Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies (EABCT), και είναι πιστοποιημένο μέλος της EABCT και της British Psychological Society (BPS).

Η κλινική της εμπειρία ξεκίνησε στο Ψυχιατρικό Τμήμα του Βενιζελείου Νοσοκομείου Ηρακλείου Κρήτης και συνεχίστηκε σε Κέντρο Συμβουλευτικής και Ψυχοθεραπείας στο Leiden της Ολλανδίας, όπου εργάστηκε με θεραπευόμενους που αντιμετώπιζαν, μεταξύ άλλων, αγχώδεις και καταθλιπτικές διαταραχές, ιδεοψυχαναγκαστική διαταραχή, διαταραχή σωματικών συμπτωμάτων, δυσκολίες προσαρμογής, πένθος και διαπροσωπικές δυσκολίες. Με την επιστροφή της στην Ελλάδα, εργάστηκε ως Κλινική Ψυχολόγος σε ιδιωτική κλινική αποκατάστασης στην Αθήνα, παρέχοντας ψυχολογική υποστήριξη σε ασθενείς με χρόνια και αυτοάνοσα νοσήματα, καθώς και σε άτομα με σοβαρές σωματικές βλάβες από ατυχήματα.

Βασικό στοιχείο για τη διασφάλιση της ποιότητας του θεραπευτικού της έργου αποτελεί η συστηματική κλινική εποπτεία, η μακροχρόνια προσωπική ψυχοθεραπεία και η συνεχής επιστημονική κατάρτιση μέσα από επιμορφωτικά σεμινάρια και συνέδρια.

Η Λευκαδίτη Ιωάννα MSc είναι Ψυχολόγος, με μεταπτυχιακές σπουδές (MSc) στην Κλινική Ψυχολογία από το University of Wales, UK και πτυχίο Ψυχολογίας από το Πάντειο Πανεπιστήμιο. Διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στο κέντρο της Αθήνας, στην περιοχή του Συντάγματος.

Η προσέγγισή της είναι προσωποκεντρική, με έμφαση στην ενσυναίσθηση, την αυθεντική επικοινωνία και τον σεβασμό στις ανάγκες και στον ρυθμό κάθε ατόμου. Αυτό σημαίνει ότι η θεραπεία διαμορφώνεται πλήρως εξατομικευμένα, θέτοντας τα θεμέλια για πραγματική αλλαγή που διαρκεί. Παράλληλα ενσωματώνει στοιχεία από προσεγγίσεις όπως το IFS και το TIST, καθώς και τις σωματικά προσανατολισμένες ψυχοθεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις. Οι προσεγγίσεις αυτές υποστηρίζουν το άτομο να χτίσει μια νέου είδους σχέση με τον εαυτό και κατ' επέκταση με τους γύρω του, με περισσότερη ροή και άνεση. Δημιουργεί ένα ασφαλές, υποστηρικτικό περιβάλλον, εντός του οποίου υποστηρίζει το άτομο να διερευνήσει τα συναισθήματα (όπως θλίψη, άγχος, θυμός, πένθος) και τις καταστάσεις που το δυσκολεύουν (όπως προβλήματα σχέσεων, θέματα στην εργασία, κοινωνική ζωή, προσωπικές επιλογές, burnout, συμπεριφορές που έχουν να κάνουν με εθισμό).

Η προσωποκεντρική προσέγγιση έχει στον πυρήνα της την αποδοχή και τον σεβασμό στην προσωπικότητα του κάθε ατόμου. Έτσι, η θεραπεία δεν πιέζει το άτομο, αλλά το υποστηρίζει ουσιαστικά και το συνοδεύει στο ταξίδι του προς τον προορισμό που το ίδιο θα επιλέξει για τον εαυτό του. Εντός αυτού του πλαισίου, το άτομο νιώθει ελεύθερο να διερευνήσει τον εαυτό του, να ενδυναμώσει το ίδιο τις δεξιότητές του και εντέλει να κάνει τις επιλογές που το εκφράζουν. Η κατανόηση των λόγων που αναδύονται "δύσκολα" συναισθήματα, των επιλογών καθώς και των αξιών που οδηγούν το άτομο σε αδιέξοδα, αλλά και των αυθεντικών επιθυμιών μπορεί να οδηγήσει όχι μόνο σε μεγαλύτερη αυτογνωσία αλλά και στην καλλιέργεια προσωπικής ισορροπίας, ώστε να στεκεται το άτομο με περισσότερη αυτοπεποίθηση στις προκλήσεις της ζωής.

Έχει εκπαιδευτεί στη Γνωσιακή Αναλυτική Ψυχοθεραπεία και βρίσκεται σε εκπαίδευση στην Προσωποκεντρική Θεραπεία και Focusing. Έχει ολοκληρώσει κύκλους εκπαίδευσης μικρής διάρκειας στην τραυματοθεραπεία και στο Internal Family Systems (IFS), διάρκειας από 3 ημέρες έως και 6 μήνες, υπό την αιγίδα της PESI. Οι εκπαιδεύσεις πραγματοποιήθηκαν με εισηγητές διεθνούς κύρους, όπως οι Frank Anderson, Janina Fisher και Bessel van der Kolk, και της έδωσαν τη δυνατότητα να εμβαθύνει σε σύγχρονες θεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις που συνδέουν τη θεωρία με την πρακτική εφαρμογή στην ψυχοθεραπευτική διαδικασία.

Η εκπαίδευση της στους τομείς αυτούς είναι συνεχόμενη, περιλαμβάνοντας κύκλους εκπαίδευσης στην Θεωρία του Πνευμονογαστρικού νεύρου, ενσωματώνοντας στοιχεία από τις τελευταιες εξελίξεις στον χώρο της νευροεπιστήμης στην προσέγγισή της. Έχει επίσης σπουδάσει Αγγλική Φιλολογία στο Εθνικό και Καποδιστριακό Πανεπιστήμιο Αθηνών και πραγματοποιεί συνεδρίες και στα Αγγλικά. Συνοδεύει με σταθερότητα και συνέπεια τους θεραπευόμενους να ανακαλύψουν και να σταθούν στις αξίες τους, να ανακαλύψουν μια νέα σχέση με τον εαυτό, να αγκαλιάσουν τις δυνατότητές τους, και να δημιουργήσουν μια ζωή που αντανακλά ποιοι πραγματικά είναι.
