Η Μπογιατζή Κωνσταντίνα είναι Κλινική Ψυχολόγος και διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στην Καλαμαριά. Είναι απόφοιτη του Τμήματος Ψυχολογίας του Αριστοτελείου Πανεπιστημίου Θεσσαλονίκης και κάτοχος Μεταπτυχιακού Τίτλου Σπουδών (MSc) στην Κλινική Ψυχολογία από το ίδιο πανεπιστήμιο. Η κλινική της εμπειρία έχει διαμορφωθεί μέσα από τη συστηματική ιδιωτική της πρακτική, με την παροχή ατομικής ψυχοθεραπείας ενηλίκων, καθώς και μέσα από τη συνεργασία με εξειδικευμένους φορείς ψυχικής υγείας (Ελληνικό Κέντρο Ψυχικής Υγιεινής και Ερευνών - Ε.ΚΕ.Ψ.Υ.Ε., Β’ Πανεπιστημιακή Ψυχιατρική Κλινική Ενηλίκων Α.Π.Θ. Πολυδύναμης Νοσηλευτικής Μονάδας Ψυχικής Υγείας Θεσσαλονίκης, Εργαστήρι Εφαρμοσμένης Ψυχολογίας του Αριστοτελείου Πανεπιστημίου Θεσσαλονίκης (Α.Π.Θ.), Εταιρεία Alzheimer, ΣΟΨΥ) και Ιδιωτικά Κέντρα Ειδικών Θεραπειών. Παράλληλα με τις ακαδημαϊκές της σπουδές, έχει ολοκληρώσει διετή εκπαίδευση στη Γνωστική-Συμπεριφορική Θεραπεία (CBT) Παιδιών και Εφήβων στην Ελληνική Εταιρεία Έρευνας της Συμπεριφοράς (ΕΕΕΣ), ενώ παρακολουθεί συστηματικά επιμορφωτικά προγράμματα που αφορούν τη διαχείριση του τραύματος, την κλινική ψυχοπαθολογία και σύγχρονες θεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις και πρακτικές.

Στην ψυχοθεραπευτική της πρακτική με ενήλικες, η ειδικός ακολουθεί τη Γνωσιακή-Συμπεριφορική προσέγγιση (CBT), αξιοποιώντας παράλληλα στοιχεία από τη Θεραπεία Σχημάτων και την Ψυχοδυναμική θεωρία. Η θεραπευτική της οπτική εστιάζει στις δυσκολίες και τις ανάγκες του ατόμου στο παρόν, λαμβάνοντας παράλληλα υπόψη την αναπτυξιακή του πορεία και τον τρόπο με τον οποίο οι εμπειρίες και οι σχέσεις σε διαφορετικές φάσεις της ζωής του μπορεί να επηρεάζουν τον τρόπο με τον οποίο αντιλαμβάνεται τον εαυτό του, διαχειρίζεται τα συναισθήματά του, σχετίζεται με τους άλλους και ανταποκρίνεται στις δυσκολίες που αντιμετωπίζει στην καθημερινότητά του.  Η εξειδικευμένη γνώση της στην αναπτυξιακή ψυχολογία και τη συμβουλευτική γονέων αποτελεί ένα επιπλέον ουσιαστικό εφόδιο στην εργασία της με ενήλικες, προσφέροντας μια βαθύτερη κατανόηση των πρώιμων συναισθηματικών δεσμών και της επίδρασής τους στη μετέπειτα συναισθηματική ζωή και τις σχέσεις του ατόμου. Η θεραπευτική της στάση διέπεται από συναισθηματική διαθεσιμότητα, ζεστασιά, ενσυναίσθηση και σεβασμό στη μοναδικότητα κάθε θεραπευόμενου. Κεντρικός στόχος είναι η δημιουργία ενός ασφαλούς χώρου έκφρασης και κατανόησης, μέσα στον οποίο το άτομο μπορεί να αποκτήσει μεγαλύτερη επίγνωση του εαυτού και των αναγκών του, να κατανοήσει και να τροποποιήσει δυσλειτουργικά μοτίβα, να επεξεργαστεί δύσκολες ή τραυματικές εμπειρίες και να εντάξει τις εμπειρίες αυτές με έναν πιο λειτουργικό τρόπο στην προσωπική του ιστορία. Ανάλογα με το θεραπευτικό αίτημα, η δουλειά μπορεί παράλληλα να εστιάζει στη διαχείριση και μείωση των συμπτωμάτων, στην ενδυνάμωση και στην προσωπική ανάπτυξη. Τέλος, η ειδικός για τη διασφάλιση της ποιότητας του θεραπευτικού έργου και την υπεύθυνη επιστημονική της πλαισίωση, βρίσκεται σε διαδικασία συνεχούς επιμόρφωσης και τακτικής επιστημονικής εποπτείας. Οι συνεδρίες πραγματοποιούνται online και δια ζώσης.
