Η Σοφία Τσακίρη MSc είναι Ψυχολόγος, απόφοιτη του προγράμματος Bachelor στην Ψυχολογία και Συμβουλευτική του Mediterranean College, σε συνεργασία με το Teesside University (Ηνωμένο Βασίλειο), από το οποίο αποφοίτησε το 2011. Το 2012 ολοκλήρωσε τις μεταπτυχιακές της σπουδές στην Ψυχολογία στο University of Plymouth (Ηνωμένο Βασίλειο). Σήμερα εκπαιδεύεται στη Συστημική Ψυχοθεραπεία και βρίσκεται στο 4ο έτος της τετραετούς εκπαίδευσής της. Εργάζεται ιδιωτικά, παρέχοντας υπηρεσίες ψυχολογικής υποστήριξης και συμβουλευτικής, ενώ έχει προσφέρει εθελοντικά τις υπηρεσίες της στο «Χαμόγελο του Παιδιού», αποκτώντας πολύτιμη εμπειρία στην υποστήριξη παιδιών και οικογενειών. Στο θεραπευτικό της έργο προσεγγίζει κάθε άνθρωπο ως τον μοναδικό ειδικό της δικής του εμπειρίας, αναγνωρίζοντας ότι οι προσωπικές ιστορίες, οι σχέσεις και τα νοήματα που συνδιαμορφώνονται επηρεάζουν τον τρόπο με τον οποίο αντιλαμβανόμαστε τον εαυτό μας και τον κόσμο γύρω μας. Μέσα από μια διαδικασία διαλόγου και συνδιαμόρφωσης νοήματος, υποστηρίζει τους ανθρώπους στην ανάδειξη των προσωπικών τους πόρων και δυνατοτήτων, στην εξερεύνηση νέων προοπτικών και στη διαμόρφωση αλλαγών που ανταποκρίνονται στις ανάγκες, τις αξίες και τις επιθυμίες τους. Βασική της προτεραιότητα αποτελεί η δημιουργία ενός ασφαλούς, συνεργατικού και υποστηρικτικού θεραπευτικού πλαισίου, μέσα στο οποίο κάθε άνθρωπος μπορεί να νιώσει ότι ακούγεται, γίνεται κατανοητός και αντιμετωπίζεται με σεβασμό. Παράλληλα, έχει παρακολουθήσει σεμινάρια όπως η Συμβουλευτική Γονέων, η Συστημική Σεξολογία και Σεξοθεραπεία Ζευγαριών και Ατόμων, Άγχος και Κρίσεις Πανικού, Ψυχοπαθολογία κ.α.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
mental health

What it is

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a form of psychotherapy applied to problems such as depression, anxiety disorders, abuse, relationship and marriage problems, eating disorders and serious mental illness.The therapist emphasizes what is happening in the current life rather than the past and what led to the difficulties.

Approach

Identifying the distortions in a person's thinking that are causing problems and then examining these in the light of reality. Understanding the behaviour and motivations of others and using problem-solving skills to deal with difficult situations. Dealing with fears rather than avoiding them. Role-playing to better prepare for potentially problematic interactions with others. You become your own self-therapist.

How it could benefit you

Helps the individual to change dysfunctional thought patterns and behaviors. Improves your functioning and quality of life by helping to change patterns and behaviours. Teaches you to be your own self-therapist.

Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT)
mental health

What it is

It is a form of psychotherapy that teaches a person to identify negative thought patterns and change them. DBT reinforces the acceptance that all your thoughts are valid, as they are part of your life experiences and who you are. The person acts by doing the best they can for the moment. It is used for people with suicidal behavior, post-traumatic stress disorder, substance use disorder, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, ADHD, depression, anxiety.

Approach

DBT focuses on acceptance and change. It helps the person to get to know themselves better, to think about why they do what they do, without judgment. Replacing a negative behavior or habit with ones that can improve the quality of life. Dialectic is the idea that two different things can be true at the same time. At the same time as accepting yourself exactly as you are, comes the recognition of your effort to change.

How it could benefit you
