Οι σπουδές της περιλαμβάνουν:

·        Κοινωνική Εργασία (Chette College)

·        Συνθετική Συμβουλευτική Ψυχοθεραπεία (Athens Synthesis Centre)

·        Ψυχολογία [BSc (Hons) Psychology Πανεπιστήμιο του Essex]

Από το 2010 διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στη Νέα Ιωνία Αττικής.

Ενημερώνεται συνεχώς στον εξελισσόμενο χώρο της ψυχολογίας και ψυχοθεραπείας, μέσω σεμιναρίων και διαρκή προσωπική ανάπτυξη.

Επίσης, συνεργάζεται με ψυχίατρο όπου απαιτείται και διατηρεί την εποπτεία των περιστατικών της.

Η επαγγελματική υποστήριξη προσφέρει ένα ασφαλές πλαίσιο αποδοχής, σεβασμού και εχεμύθειας. Απευθύνεται σε όσους επιθυμούν να διαχειριστούν προσωπικές ή διαπροσωπικές δυσκολίες, να ξεπεράσουν συναισθηματικά αδιέξοδα και να επενδύσουν στην αυτογνωσία και την προσωπική τους εξέλιξη.

Η θεωρητική προσέγγιση που ακολουθείται είναι συνθετική, συνδυάζοντας στοιχεία και τεχνικές από διαφορετικές κατευθύνσεις, με βασικούς πυλώνες τις εξής:

Τη Γνωσιακή - Συμπεριφορική για αναγνώριση και τροποποίηση του σκεπτικού και της συμπεριφοράς που δείχνουν αδιέξοδα.

Την Ψυχοδυναμική για ιχνηλάτηση του παρελθόντος (πρώιμες παιδικές εμπειρίες) που έχουν διαμορφώσει ένα μοντέλο λειτουργίας του ατόμου.

Την Υπαρξιακή που εστιάζει στις επιλογές του παρόντος, στο προσωπικό νόημα και στις σχέσεις. Παρέχει ένα πλαίσιο διαχείρισης θεμελιωδών υπαρξιακών ζητημάτων (άγχος, μοναξιά, ελευθερία, φόβος θανάτου). Στις ομάδες εφαρμόζεται αποκλειστικά η συγκεκριμένη προσέγγιση.

Κυρίαρχη σε κάθε περίπτωση, η Προσωποκεντρική θεώρηση, όπου η έμφαση δίνεται πρώτα στον άνθρωπο και έπειτα στο πρόβλημά του. Υπάρχει η πίστη ότι κάθε άτομο διαθέτει θετικές πλευρές και ένα εσωτερικό δυναμικό, ικανό να υποστηρίξει την ανάπτυξη και την υπέρβαση των δυσκολιών της ζωής.

Saracini Raffaello MSc is a Mental Health Consultant - Psychotherapist with a private practice in Ano Patissia. Rather than viewing personal struggles as "disorders" or signs of illness, he perceives them as natural responses to the complex realities of life. Anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship difficulties are not character flaws or mental "defects"—they are deeply human reactions to uncertainties, losses, and emotional challenges that we all face. In his approach, challenges are not pathologized. Instead, they are regarded as opportunities for growth, self-awareness, and transformation. Existential therapy, for example, looks beyond symptoms to explore deeper questions about the purpose of your life, your values, and how you navigate freedom and responsibility. Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps you reconnect with and process the emotions underlying your experience. Mindfulness offers tools to observe and accept your thoughts and feelings without judgment, while the Flash technique gently works to release emotional pain without labeling your experience as "wrong." The goal of therapy is to help you embrace your unique journey, understand your struggles as part of life's complexity, and find ways to live more fully, with greater meaning and emotional balance.
