Η Πατεράκη Κωνσταντίνα MSc, είναι Ψυχολόγος με άδεια άσκησης του επαγγέλματος και Ψυχοθεραπεύτρια με μεταπτυχιακό στην Συνθετική Ψυχοθεραπεία. Δουλεύει ατομικά με ενήλικες και εφήβους σε θέματα ψυχικής υγείας όπως το άγχος και η κατάθλιψη αλλά και σε δυσκολίες που αφορούν 1. Τις διαπροσωπικές σχέσεις: δυσκολίες στην ερωτική/ συντροφική σχέση, διαχείριση της ενήλικης σχέσης με τους γονείς, διαχείριση ρήξεων, θέματα γονεϊκότητας /Gentle parenting, οριοθέτηση και άλλα. 2. Την σχέση με τον εαυτό: Αυτοαξία/ αυτοεκτίμηση, αυτογνωσία, σεξουαλικός προσανατολισμός / ταυτότητα φύλου, πένθος/ απώλεια, people pleasing, ρύθμιση του συναισθήματος, εσωτερικές συγκρούσεις. Η εξειδίκευση της στην Συνθετική Ψυχοθεραπεία της επιτρέπει να συνθέτει γνώσεις και τεχνικές από τρεις ψυχοθεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις ( Γνωστική-Συμπεριφορική, Προσωποκεντρική και Ψυχοδυναμική Ψυχοθεραπεία), με εξατομικευμένους τρόπους για το κάθε θεραπευόμενο άτομο ξεχωριστά. Η αποδοχή, η έλλειψη κριτικής, η ενσυναισθητική ακρόαση, και η αυθεντική διάθεση για κατανόηση από την πλευρά της Ψυχοθεραπεύτριας, σε συνδυασμό με τη διάθεση για ειλικρίνεια και το σεβασμό του ψυχοθεραπευτικού πλαισίου από την πλευρά του θεραπευόμενου ατόμου, γίνονται το γόνιμο έδαφος για την καλλιέργεια μια ασφαλούς ψυχοθεραπευτικής σχέσης εμπιστοσύνης. Το θεραπευόμενο άτομο ως ειδικό του εαυτού του και η Ψυχοθεραπεύτρια ως ειδικός ψυχικής υγείας, συνεργάζονται για την καλύτερη δυνατή πλοήγηση στον κόσμο του θεραπευόμενου. Μέσα στην ανακουφιστική ασφάλεια της ψυχοθεραπευτικής σχέσης, η οποία αποτελεί και το βασικό εργαλείο της ψυχοθεραπευτικής διαδικασίας, το θεραπευόμενο άτομο καλείται να μάθει τους μηχανισμούς του, να αναγνωρίσει τα μοτίβα του και να αντέξει τις αλήθειες του. Στόχος είναι τόσο η βαθύτερη κατανόηση του εαυτού, η ανάπτυξη αυτοσυμπόνιας και αυτοαποδοχής, όσο και η επίτευξη της επιθυμητής αλλαγής μέσα από τη δράση, την ανάληψη ευθύνης και την εκμάθηση νέων εργαλείων και υγιέστερων μηχανισμών διαχείρισης του εαυτού, και των σχέσεων. Η ίδια η ψυχοθεραπευτική σχέση δρα συχνά ως επανορθωτική εμπειρία και ανοίγει το δρόμο για τις άλλες σημαντικές σχέσεις της ενήλικης ζωής.
