The Kentro Symfyia - Sakalidi Ioanna is located in Ano Patissia. The philosophy of "Symfyia," as its name suggests, symbolizes healing through the union and synthesis of the self, emphasizing the idea of integration and harmonious coexistence. The name of our psychotherapeutic center reflects the inspiration behind its creation—the process by which two or more entities/ideas closely unite in a way that they become inseparable and function as a single harmonious whole. Embodying these ideas, the center follows the Synthetic Psychotherapeutic approach both individually and in groups. Its purpose is to provide support to individuals so that they can address issues that concern them, such as anxiety management, crisis intervention, interpersonal relationships, self-improvement, personal development, and emotional conflicts. This approach is based on the relationship developed between therapist and client, which, to be effective and creative, must be well-defined, involve warmth and responsiveness, and take place in an atmosphere of acceptance and trust, where free expression of emotions is encouraged.

Έχω πολυετή εμπειρία στον δημόσιο τομέα, με αντικείμενο την κοινωνική υποστήριξη οικογενειών, θετών και αναδόχων γονέων, καθώς και την εκπαίδευση τους. Η επαγγελματική μου εμπειρία έχει ενισχύσει τη βαθιά μου κατανόηση για τη λειτουργία της οικογένειας και τις ανάγκες των ανθρώπων μέσα στα σύγχρονα κοινωνικά πλαίσια.

ΘΕΡΑΠΕΥΤΙΚΗ ΠΡΟΣΈΓΓΙΣΗ 

 Πιστεύω ότι κάθε άνθρωπος έχει μέσα του την δυνατότητα για αλλαγή, να εμπνέεται, να δημιουργεί και να ανακαλύπτει νέους τρόπους σύνδεσης με τον εαυτό του και τους άλλους. Η δουλειά μου επικεντρώνεται στη δημιουργία ενός σταθερού πλαισίου με αποδοχή και σεβασμό όπου ο άνθρωπος μπορεί να εκφράσει ελεύθερα τα συναισθήματα του, να επεξεργαστεί τα βιώματα του, να επαναπροσδιορίσει τις σχέσεις του, να κατανοήσει και να αγαπήσει τον εαυτό του.Η θεραπευτική διαδικασία στοχεύει στην ενίσχυση της αυτογνωσίας, τη συναισθηματική ωριμότητα, την έμπνευση και την ανάληψη της προσωπικής ευθύνης καθώς και τη δημιουργία λειτουργικών σχέσεων. 

Συνεργάζομαι με ενήλικες, εφήβους, ζευγάρια, οικογένειες που επιθυμούν να βελτιώσουν την επικοινωνία τους, να φροντίσουν τις σχέσεις τους, να δώσουν χώρο στα συναισθήματα τους και να τα επεξεργαστούν, να αναπτύξουν βαθύτερη κατανόηση και επαφή με τον εαυτό τους και τους άλλους. Να δημιουργούν σχέσεις με αυθεντικότητα, τρυφερότητα και ισορροπία και να ζουν με πληρότητα και χαρά!
