The Kentro Symfyia - Sakalidi Ioanna is located in Ano Patissia. The philosophy of "Symfyia," as its name suggests, symbolizes healing through the union and synthesis of the self, emphasizing the idea of integration and harmonious coexistence. The name of our psychotherapeutic center reflects the inspiration behind its creation—the process by which two or more entities/ideas closely unite in a way that they become inseparable and function as a single harmonious whole. Embodying these ideas, the center follows the Synthetic Psychotherapeutic approach both individually and in groups. Its purpose is to provide support to individuals so that they can address issues that concern them, such as anxiety management, crisis intervention, interpersonal relationships, self-improvement, personal development, and emotional conflicts. This approach is based on the relationship developed between therapist and client, which, to be effective and creative, must be well-defined, involve warmth and responsiveness, and take place in an atmosphere of acceptance and trust, where free expression of emotions is encouraged.

Στόχο έχει τη διερεύνηση των διαπροσωπικών σχέσεων, την ενίσχυση της προσωπικής εξέλιξης και κατανόησης του εαυτού μέσα από τη σχέση με τους άλλους, όπως και την ανάπτυξη ενός πιο αυθόρμητου σχετίζεσθαι. Οι θεραπευτικές αρχές του Ομαδικοαναλατικού Ψυχοδράματος αξιοποιούνται τόσο στις ομαδικές όσο και τις ατομικές συνεδρίες, δίνοντας ιδιαίτερη έμφαση στην εγκαθίδρυση μιας ασφαλούς θεραπευτικής συμμαχίας.

Η θεραπευτική του προσέγγιση βασίζεται στις αρχές της συστημικής θεωρίας, με επιρροές από τη Γνωσιακή Συμπεριφοριστική Θεραπεία (CBT) και τη Λακανική ψυχανάλυση. Η θεραπευτική του στάση προσβλέπει τη θεραπεία, ως μια διαλογική και αλληλεπιδραστική διαδικασία, κατά την οποία το νόημα και η αλλαγή προκύπτουν μέσα από τη θεραπευτική σχέση και τη συν-κατανόηση. Κεντρικές αξίες που διέπουν την προσέγγιση του, είναι η αυθεντικότητα, ο αναστοχασμός, η συμμετοχικότητα στη θεραπευτική σχέση και η διάθεση επανεξέτασης των αφηγήσεων που οργανώνουν την εμπειρία και τη ζωή του/της θεραπευόμενου/ης.

Μέσα από αυτή τη διερεύνηση, οι προσωπικές αφηγήσεις μπορούν να επανεξεταστούν και να αποκτήσουν νέα νοήματα, ανοίγοντας τη δυνατότητα για διαφορετικούς τρόπους κατανόησης του εαυτού και των σχέσεων.
