In recent years, he has maintained a private Counseling and Psychotherapy Center in the center of Komotini, working both online and in person. He believes that Psychodynamic Psychotherapy helps individuals to better understand themselves, recognize deeper feelings and thoughts, and improve the way they relate to others. A crucial role in this process is played by the real and authentic relationship experienced between the Psychotherapist and the Client. This relationship becomes an important tool, where patterns and emotions that emerge within the therapeutic relationship facilitate the understanding of the Client’s relationships outside therapy. Thus, over time, the Client can express themselves freely, better understand themselves, process difficult emotions, and ultimately live more freely, with greater self-awareness and authenticity in their relationships.
