Ονομάζομαι Γκέλυ Λιανού και είμαι Ψυχολόγος (MSc) και Συστημική Ψυχοθεραπεύτρια. Μέσα από τις διαδικτυακές μας συνεδρίες, στόχος μου είναι να σας προσφέρω έναν απολύτως ασφαλή και υποστηρικτικό χώρο, όπου θα μπορέσετε να μοιραστείτε όλα όσα σας δυσκολεύουν. 

Ως συστημική θεραπεύτρια, δεν εστιάζω μόνο στο σύμπτωμα. Βλέπω τον άνθρωπο ως μέρος ενός ευρύτερου συνόλου (οικογένεια, σχέσεις, εργασία, κοινωνία). Μαζί, θα προσπαθήσουμε να κατανοήσουμε τα μοτίβα που σας εγκλωβίζουν, να συνδέσουμε τα συνειδητά με τα ασυνείδητα κομμάτια, να φωτίσουμε τις δικές σας εσωτερικές δυνάμεις και να βρούμε νέους τρόπους επικοινωνίας και διαχείρισης των προκλήσεων.

Δουλεύω αποκλειστικά διαδικτυακά με ενήλικες τόσο στην Ελλάδα όσο και με Έλληνες του εξωτερικού. Η online μορφή μας επιτρέπει να δουλέψουμε με την ίδια ακριβώς θεραπευτική ποιότητα (ενσυναίσθηση, αποδοχή, αυθεντικότητα, εχεμύθεια και εμπιστευτικότητα) και αμεσότητα, από την ασφάλεια και την άνεση του δικού σας χώρου.

Μπορώ να σας υποστηρίξω σε ζητήματα όπως:

-Διαχείριση άγχους, κρίσεων και στρες

-Κατάθλιψη, απώλεια και πένθος

-Δυσκολίες στις διαπροσωπικές σχέσεις (οικογενειακές, συντροφικές, επαγγελματικές)

-Ζητήματα αυτοεκτίμησης, μοναξιάς και αυτοεικόνας

-Προσαρμογή σε νέες συνθήκες/φάσεις ζωής (π.χ. μετανάστευση, αλλαγή καριέρας, γονεϊκότητα, διαζύγιο)

-Επεξεργασία τραυματικών εμπειριών

Στο κάτω μέρος της σελίδας μπορείτε να δείτε αναλυτικά την ακαδημαϊκή μου εκπαίδευση (Πάντειο Πανεπιστήμιο, ΕΚΠΑ) και την επαγγελματική μου εμπειρία.

Στην πρώτη μας διαδικτυακή συνάντηση, θα έχουμε τον χρόνο να γνωριστούμε, να ακούσω τι σας απασχολεί και να συζητήσουμε το πώς μπορούμε να συνεργαστούμε.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a form of psychotherapy applied to problems such as depression, anxiety disorders, abuse, relationship and marriage problems, eating disorders and serious mental illness.The therapist emphasizes what is happening in the current life rather than the past and what led to the difficulties.

Approach

Identifying the distortions in a person's thinking that are causing problems and then examining these in the light of reality. Understanding the behaviour and motivations of others and using problem-solving skills to deal with difficult situations. Dealing with fears rather than avoiding them.

It is used for people with suicidal behavior, post-traumatic stress disorder, substance use disorder, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, ADHD, depression, anxiety.

Approach

DBT focuses on acceptance and change. It helps the person to get to know themselves better, to think about why they do what they do, without judgment. Replacing a negative behavior or habit with ones that can improve the quality of life. Dialectic is the idea that two different things can be true at the same time. At the same time as accepting yourself exactly as you are, comes the recognition of your effort to change.

Approach

Each person is a combination of mind, emotions, body and soul with unique experiences and events. No single life event, personality trait or psychological diagnosis defines you.

Psychodynamic psychotherapy
mental health

What it is

It is used in depression, anxiety, interpersonal problems, addictions, trauma, eating disorders, personality disorder.

Approach

Psychodynamic psychotherapy provides a space to explore and understand how unhelpful patterns from the past may be influencing our current difficulties. Defence mechanisms are explored and how our feelings and behaviours in the present are shaped by our past experiences.

Systemic psychotherapy
mental health

What it is

Systemic psychotherapy is an approach about how the individual acts as part of a wider group or broader system of relationships: family, partner relationship, work, friendships, and social environment. This approach connects communication and interaction patterns with a problem or a difficulty that the individual may be experiencing.

Approach

Systemic psychotherapy identifies behavioral patterns within a persons’ relationships and in the way someone connects with others. It helps the individual understand themselves more effectively, along with their roles and communication style and supports them in developing more functional ways of thinking and communicating within their system.

How it could benefit you

It helps improve understanding of relationship and family dynamics. It can change dysfunctional communication and behavior patterns within the system, strengthen empathy, support the development of stronger relationships and help with managing conflicts and difficulties.
