Mental Health Counselors in Prefecture of Trikala

Emmanouela Brun is a mental health counselor dedicated to helping individuals gain a deep understanding of themselves and face life’s challenges with strength and clarity. She combines dynamic psychology with insights from neuroscience to offer thoughtful, personalized support.Emmanouela has always been deeply curious about how the human mind works and has felt a natural calling to support and uplift others.This innate curiosity and empathy are what led her to the path she follows today.Being half Greek and half Italian, she grew up within two cultures — an experience that sparked a deep fascination with how people from different backgrounds think, communicate, and navigate the world.Through her life and work, she has witnessed how easily misunderstandings can arise between people from different perspectives — how one person may mean one thing and another interpret it differently. These experiences have continually reminded her how intricate and nuanced human psychology truly is.Emmanouela began her academic journey at the University of Padua, where she earned her bachelor’s degree in Social Psychology and studied abroad for a semester at the University of Lisbon. After completing her degree, she immersed herself in dynamic psychology, attending courses at the University of Turin and exploring the power of the inner world.She later returned to Padua to complete her master’s in Cognitive and Applied Psychology, deepening her understanding of how thoughts, emotions, and the brain intertwine.Today, Emmanouela enjoys blending insights from psychoanalysis and dynamic psychology with discoveries from neuroscience and cognitive psychology.She spent a year providing psychological support to immigrant children and to those from abusive families in a school setting, and later offered assistance at a center for individuals with disabilities in Padua.Since 2023, she has established her own private practice, where she continues to offer therapy and psychological support.Each step of her journey has strengthened her belief in the power of human connection and in the profound impact that people can have on one another’s lives.In her practice, Emmanouela believes that behaviors, thoughts, and emotions are deeply influenced by unconscious processes and unresolved conflicts.She views the mind as a complex system, where what lies beneath the surface often holds the key to understanding current struggles. Every symptom, pattern, and emotional challenge has a deeper root cause — often stemming from past experiences, unconscious beliefs, and early life events.Her work focuses on uncovering these underlying forces, bringing them into conscious awareness, and understanding how they continue to shape behavior today.Emmanouela aims to help people make sense of their inner world, gain insight into their emotional lives, and work through unresolved issues that may be hindering their growth and well-being.She is also deeply interested in the connection between mind and body. For her, thoughts and emotions are not merely abstract ideas; they have a tangible, biological foundation that affects the nervous system, brain function, and overall health.By integrating insights from neuroscience and cognitive psychology, she explains how unconscious processes are also influenced by brain activity and physiological responses.This holistic perspective allows her to approach therapy in a more complete and practical way.Ultimately, Emmanouela’s work aims to help individuals explore what lies beneath the surface of their lives — to uncover the roots of their emotional patterns, understand their true motivations, and find clarity and purpose.Her goal is not only to guide people toward greater self-awareness but also to empower them to create meaningful, lasting change that leads to a more authentic and fulfilling life.
