BE YOU

Elena Apostolaki has dedicated her life to psychology and personal development—not merely as a professional choice, but as a personal journey of self-awareness and growth. She holds a degree in Psychology from Canterbury Christ Church University, with a specialization in Psychopathology through the Educational Group Evdokimos. She has been trained in Life Coaching at the University of West Attica and holds a Practitioner Coach certification from the international organization IAPCM. Additionally, she has completed studies in Counseling Intervention at the School of Personal Development and Therapy "Diodos." Currently, she is pursuing postgraduate studies at Aegean College, in collaboration with the University of Essex, continuously enhancing her theoretical and practical foundation in psychology. In her work, she integrates elements from Cognitive Psychology, the Person-Centered approach, and NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) techniques, offering a safe and supportive environment for those who wish to: deepen their self-knowledge, recognize the barriers that limit them, and evolve with substance and authenticity.

Her philosophy is based on the belief that every person already possesses within themselves all they need to flourish—the only requirement is the appropriate environment, support, and guidance to discover and utilize these resources.

This is the purpose served by BE YOU:

A space for inner exploration, authentic connection, and personal transformation.

It does not tell anyone who to become—it helps each person remember who they truly are.

📍 Provides sessions in Heraklion, Crete and online, in Greek, English, and German, with respect, authenticity, and discretion.

BE YOU – because change begins from within.

H Βασιλική Γκίκα είναι Ψυχολόγος και διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στο Κορωπί και παρέχει κατ' ιδίαν και online συνεδρίες.

Είναι ιδιαίτερα ευαισθητοποιημένη στη διερεύνηση θεμάτων που σχετίζονται με τον ψυχικό και σωματικό πόνο, τη μεταγνώση και τα παράδοξα που συχνά συνοδεύουν την ανθρώπινη εμπειρία. Πολλές φορές οι εσωτερικές μας συγκρούσεις, οι αντιφάσεις, τα διλήμματα, τα ερωτήματα που καλούμαστε να διαχειριστούμε αποτελούν ουσιαστικό κομμάτι της προσωπικής μας πορείας και μπορούν να γίνουν η αφετηρία μιας βαθύτερης κατανόησης του εαυτού. Στόχος της είναι η δημιουργία ενός ασφαλούς και ουσιαστικού πλαισίου, όπου θα μπορείς να εκφραστείς με αυθεντικότητα και να προσεγγίσεις με μεγαλύτερη επίγνωση τις σκέψεις, τα συναισθήματα και τις εμπειρίες σου. Μέσα από τη θεραπευτική διαδικασία ενισχύεται η μεταγνώση, δηλαδή η δυνατότητα να παρατηρούμε και να κατανοούμε βαθύτερα τον τρόπο με τον οποίο λειτουργούμε, σκεφτόμαστε και σχετιζόμαστε με τον εαυτό μας και τους άλλους. Η ενσυνειδητότητα (mindfulness) συμβάλλει στην ανάπτυξη μεγαλύτερης παρουσίας, αυτοπαρατήρησης και συναισθηματικής επίγνωσης, ενισχύοντας την ικανότητα του ατόμου να συνδέεται πιο ουσιαστικά με την παρούσα στιγμή και τις εσωτερικές του διεργασίες. Θεωρεί ότι η κατανόηση του εσωτερικού μας κόσμου μπορεί να συμβάλει ουσιαστικά στην ψυχική ισορροπία, την αυτογνωσία και την προσωπική μας εξέλιξη.
