About the specialist

Maria Kyvrikoseou is a Psychologist. She graduated from the Department of Psychology at Panteion University of Social and Political Sciences and is continuing her studies at the Center for Systemic Education and Counseling "Allilepidrasis." She primarily works online, but face-to-face sessions are also available upon arrangement. Her philosophy of systemic psychotherapy is summarized by Virginia Satir's quote: "A person is born in relation, lives in relation, and is healed in relation." Therefore, the "problem" is examined and understood through the way the individual interacts with the people around them, rather than considering the individual as an isolated unit apart from the social context. Additionally, she has attended seminars related to Special Education at the University of Piraeus and School Psychology at Panteion University. She is committed to creating a safe, warm, and human space where everyone can express themselves freely, listen to their inner self, and discover new ways to relate both to others and to themselves. If you feel you are going through a period of change, reflection, or simply want to better understand yourself and your relationships, Ms. Kyvrikoseou will be happy to meet you.
