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.

Είναι απόφοιτος Ψυχολογίας του CITY College, International Faculty of the University of Sheffield, όπου ολοκλήρωσε τις σπουδές της το 2021. Κατά τη διάρκεια των σπουδών της, ιδιαίτερο ενδιαφέρον παρουσίασε για τον τρόπο με τον οποίο το κοινωνικό και περιβαλλοντικό πλαίσιο επηρεάζει την ανθρώπινη λειτουργία. Η πτυχιακή της εργασία, με τίτλο “The Effects of Socioeconomic Status on Cognitive Performance”, επικεντρώθηκε στη μελέτη της σχέσης μεταξύ κοινωνικοοικονομικού επιπέδου και γνωστικής απόδοσης. Μετά την ολοκλήρωση των βασικών σπουδών της, επέλεξε να προσανατολίσει την επαγγελματική της πορεία στη Συστημική Ψυχοθεραπεία. Από τον Σεπτέμβριο του 2023 εκπαιδεύεται στο Κέντρο Συστημικής Μελέτης και Θεραπείας Θεσσαλονίκης (Κε.Σ.Με.Θ.Θ.) – Ινστιτούτο Εκπαίδευσης & Ψυχοθεραπείας, διευρύνοντας συνεχώς τις γνώσεις και τις θεραπευτικές της δεξιότητες μέσα από θεωρητική, βιωματική και πρακτική εκπαίδευση. Η συστημική προσέγγιση αποτελεί βασικό άξονα της επαγγελματικής της ταυτότητας. Μέσα από αυτή την οπτική, ο άνθρωπος προσεγγίζεται ως μέρος ενός ευρύτερου πλαισίου σχέσεων και αλληλεπιδράσεων, με στόχο την καλύτερη κατανόηση των δυσκολιών, των αναγκών και των δυνατοτήτων του.

Η παρουσία της στο Κέντρο αποτελεί σημαντικό μέρος της επαγγελματικής της πορείας, καθώς της επιτρέπει να εφαρμόζει στην πράξη τις γνώσεις και τις δεξιότητες που έχει αναπτύξει μέσα από την εκπαίδευση και τη συνεχή ενασχόλησή της με τη Συστημική Ψυχοθεραπεία. Από τον Οκτώβριο του 2022 έως τον Οκτώβριο του 2024 συμμετείχε σε ατομικές συνεδρίες και σε ομαδική θεραπευτική διαδικασία σε ιδιωτικό πλαίσιο συστημικής θεραπείας, υπό την παρουσία και τον συντονισμό επαγγελματία ψυχικής υγείας. Η εμπειρία αυτή συνέβαλε ουσιαστικά στην ανάπτυξη της κλινικής της σκέψης και στην εξοικείωσή της με τη θεραπευτική διαδικασία σε ατομικό και ομαδικό επίπεδο.

Στο πλαίσιο της κοινωνικής και επαγγελματικής της προσφοράς, έχει προσφέρει εθελοντική εργασία ως ψυχολόγος στο Κέντρο Ολιστικής Φροντίδας «ΝΕΜΕΣΙΣ» – Cancer Nemesis. Κατά τη διάρκεια της παρουσίας της στο Κέντρο, δραστηριοποιήθηκε στον τομέα της ψυχολογικής υποστήριξης, συμμετέχοντας στις σχετικές ψυχοθεραπευτικές διαδικασίες και έχοντας ενεργό ρόλο στο κομμάτι της ψυχολογικής φροντίδας. Παράλληλα, συμμετείχε στις κοινωνικές δράσεις του Κέντρου, οι οποίες είχαν αφιλοκερδή και κοινωνικό χαρακτήρα. Από τον Μάρτιο του 2022 έως τον Ιούνιο του 2023 συμμετείχε εθελοντικά σε κοινωνικές δράσεις και εκδηλώσεις των Παιδικών Χωριών SOS Πλαγιαρίου, προσφέροντας χρόνο και ενεργή υποστήριξη στις δράσεις του οργανισμού.

Η ειδικός έχει επιμορφωθεί σε θεματικές που διευρύνουν το γνωστικό της πεδίο και αφορούν διαφορετικές πτυχές της ψυχικής υγείας και της ανθρώπινης συμπεριφοράς. Έχει παρακολουθήσει σεμινάρια του Πανεπιστημίου Πατρών με αντικείμενο τον Αυτισμό και τη Σχολική Ψυχολογία, καθώς και εκπαιδευτικά προγράμματα σχετικά με τη Διαχείριση Εργασιακού Άγχους και τη Συναισθηματική Νοημοσύνη στο σύγχρονο εργασιακό περιβάλλον. Τέλος, η συνεχής εκπαίδευση αποτελεί για την ίδια σημαντικό μέρος της επαγγελματικής της πορείας, καθώς θεωρεί ότι η εξέλιξη ενός επαγγελματία ψυχικής υγείας απαιτεί διαρκή αναζήτηση γνώσης, προσωπική καλλιέργεια και επαφή με σύγχρονες θεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις.
