Έχει εκπαιδευτεί στις ικανότητες συμβουλευτικής στον τομέα της τοξικοεξάρτησης στο Κέντρο Θεραπείας Εξαρτημένων Ατόμων (ΚΕΘΕΑ), σε συνεργασία με το University of California San Diego των ΗΠΑ. Είναι απόφοιτη του Τμήματος Ψυχολογίας του Αριστοτελείου Πανεπιστημίου Θεσσαλονίκης (1999), με άδεια άσκησης επαγγέλματος. Έχει εκπαιδευτεί στη Συστημική Ψυχοθεραπεία και από το Σεπτέμβριο του 2025 εκπαιδεύεται στη Συστημική Θεραπεία Ζεύγους. Διαθέτει πάνω από 23 χρόνια επαγγελματικής εμπειρίας στο χώρο των εξαρτήσεων και της ψυχικής υγείας. Μετά το πέρας των σπουδών της εργάστηκε ως Ψυχολόγος στο Δημοτικό Γηροκομείο Λάρισας και στον Οργανισμό βρεφονηπιακών σταθμών του Δήμου Λάρισας. Στη συνέχεια, εργάστηκε για 21 συνεχόμενα έτη ως θεραπεύτρια και σύμβουλος τοξικοεξαρτήσεων στο ΚΕΘΕΑ (Κέντρο Θεραπείας Εξαρτημένων Ατόμων) σε Λάρισα και Αθήνα, όπου ανέλαβε τον σχεδιασμό, τη διεξαγωγή και το συντονισμό ατομικών, ομαδικών και οικογενειακών θεραπευτικών συνεδριών, καθώς και την ενημέρωση και προετοιμασία ενεργών χρηστών ώστε να λάβουν θεραπεία. Κατά τη διάρκεια αυτών των ετών συμμετείχε σε μεγάλο αριθμό ημερίδων, σεμιναρίων και εκπαιδεύσεων εντός και εκτός ΚΕ.Θ.Ε.Α. μεταξύ των οποίων στη Δυναμική ομάδων και στο Γενεόγραμμα. Η εμπειρία της στο χώρο της απεξάρτησης υπήρξε ένας χώρος αλλαγής και συνεξέλιξης για εκείνη, καθώς απέκτησε εκτενή κλινική εμπειρία και βαθιά κατανόηση των σύνθετων αναγκών των εξαρτημένων ατόμων και των οικογενειών τους.

Η πολυετής εμπειρία της στο ΚΕ.Θ.Ε.Α. της δίδαξε πολύτιμες δεξιότητες, όπως η ενσυναίσθηση, η αποδοχή, η κατανόηση των βαθύτερων αιτιών που κρύβονται πίσω από τις δυσκολίες κάθε ανθρώπου, καθώς και τον αμέριστο σεβασμό στην προσωπική του προσπάθεια για αλλαγή. Μέσα από την καθημερινή της επαφή με ανθρώπους σε κρίση, εκπαιδεύτηκε ουσιαστικά σε αυτό που έμαθε πρώτα σε θεωρητικό επίπεδο, ότι κάθε κρίση αποτελεί, όταν κάποιος το επιδιώξει, μια ευκαιρία για βαθιά και ουσιαστική αλλαγή.

Σήμερα, στο προσωπικό της γραφείο, στόχος της είναι να μεταφέρει τη βαθιά εμπειρία της στους ανθρώπους που θα την εμπιστευτούν και να προσφέρει ένα ασφαλές, σταθερό και ανθρώπινο πλαίσιο θεραπευτικής συμμαχίας και σύνδεσης. Ένα χώρο όπου μπορεί το άτομο να εξελιχθεί, να αλλάξει ό,τι το δυσκολεύει, να έρθει σε επαφή με βαθύτερα κομμάτια του εαυτού του και να βελτιώσει την ποιότητα των σχέσεων του με τους σημαντικούς ανθρώπους της ζωής του.

About the specialist

Η Λευκαδίτη Ιωάννα MSc είναι Ψυχολόγος, με μεταπτυχιακές σπουδές (MSc) στην Κλινική Ψυχολογία από το University of Wales, UK και πτυχίο Ψυχολογίας από το Πάντειο Πανεπιστήμιο. Διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στο κέντρο της Αθήνας, στην περιοχή του Συντάγματος.

Η προσέγγισή της είναι προσωποκεντρική, με έμφαση στην ενσυναίσθηση, την αυθεντική επικοινωνία και τον σεβασμό στις ανάγκες και στον ρυθμό κάθε ατόμου. Αυτό σημαίνει ότι η θεραπεία διαμορφώνεται πλήρως εξατομικευμένα, θέτοντας τα θεμέλια για πραγματική αλλαγή που διαρκεί. Παράλληλα ενσωματώνει στοιχεία από προσεγγίσεις όπως το IFS και το TIST, καθώς και τις σωματικά προσανατολισμένες ψυχοθεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις. Οι προσεγγίσεις αυτές υποστηρίζουν το άτομο να χτίσει μια νέου είδους σχέση με τον εαυτό και κατ' επέκταση με τους γύρω του, με περισσότερη ροή και άνεση. Δημιουργεί ένα ασφαλές, υποστηρικτικό περιβάλλον, εντός του οποίου υποστηρίζει το άτομο να διερευνήσει τα συναισθήματα (όπως θλίψη, άγχος, θυμός, πένθος) και τις καταστάσεις που το δυσκολεύουν (όπως προβλήματα σχέσεων, θέματα στην εργασία, κοινωνική ζωή, προσωπικές επιλογές, burnout, συμπεριφορές που έχουν να κάνουν με εθισμό).

Η προσωποκεντρική προσέγγιση έχει στον πυρήνα της την αποδοχή και τον σεβασμό στην προσωπικότητα του κάθε ατόμου. Έτσι, η θεραπεία δεν πιέζει το άτομο, αλλά το υποστηρίζει ουσιαστικά και το συνοδεύει στο ταξίδι του προς τον προορισμό που το ίδιο θα επιλέξει για τον εαυτό του. Εντός αυτού του πλαισίου, το άτομο νιώθει ελεύθερο να διερευνήσει τον εαυτό του, να ενδυναμώσει το ίδιο τις δεξιότητές του και εντέλει να κάνει τις επιλογές που το εκφράζουν. Η κατανόηση των λόγων που αναδύονται "δύσκολα" συναισθήματα, των επιλογών καθώς και των αξιών που οδηγούν το άτομο σε αδιέξοδα, αλλά και των αυθεντικών επιθυμιών μπορεί να οδηγήσει όχι μόνο σε μεγαλύτερη αυτογνωσία αλλά και στην καλλιέργεια προσωπικής ισορροπίας, ώστε να στεκεται το άτομο με περισσότερη αυτοπεποίθηση στις προκλήσεις της ζωής.

Έχει εκπαιδευτεί στη Γνωσιακή Αναλυτική Ψυχοθεραπεία και βρίσκεται σε εκπαίδευση στην Προσωποκεντρική Θεραπεία και Focusing. Έχει ολοκληρώσει κύκλους εκπαίδευσης μικρής διάρκειας στην τραυματοθεραπεία και στο Internal Family Systems (IFS), διάρκειας από 3 ημέρες έως και 6 μήνες, υπό την αιγίδα της PESI. Οι εκπαιδεύσεις πραγματοποιήθηκαν με εισηγητές διεθνούς κύρους, όπως οι Frank Anderson, Janina Fisher και Bessel van der Kolk, και της έδωσαν τη δυνατότητα να εμβαθύνει σε σύγχρονες θεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις που συνδέουν τη θεωρία με την πρακτική εφαρμογή στην ψυχοθεραπευτική διαδικασία.

Η εκπαίδευση της στους τομείς αυτούς είναι συνεχόμενη, περιλαμβάνοντας κύκλους εκπαίδευσης στην Θεωρία του Πνευμονογαστρικού νεύρου, ενσωματώνοντας στοιχεία από τις τελευταιες εξελίξεις στον χώρο της νευροεπιστήμης στην προσέγγισή της. Έχει επίσης σπουδάσει Αγγλική Φιλολογία στο Εθνικό και Καποδιστριακό Πανεπιστήμιο Αθηνών και πραγματοποιεί συνεδρίες και στα Αγγλικά. Συνοδεύει με σταθερότητα και συνέπεια τους θεραπευόμενους να ανακαλύψουν και να σταθούν στις αξίες τους, να ανακαλύψουν μια νέα σχέση με τον εαυτό, να αγκαλιάσουν τις δυνατότητές τους, και να δημιουργήσουν μια ζωή που αντανακλά ποιοι πραγματικά είναι.

Η Αποστολοπούλου Εύα είναι Ψυχολόγος με κλινική άδεια ασκήσης επαγγέλματος, απόφοιτη του Παντείου Πανεπιστημίου Κοινωνικών και Πολιτικών Επιστημών. Στο πλαίσιο της πρακτικής της άσκησης εργάστηκε στη Διεύθυνση Κοινωνικής Πολιτικής & Υγείας του Δήμου Βύρωνα, όπου εκπαιδεύτηκε στη χρήση ψυχομετρικών εργαλείων και στην αξιολόγηση δυσκολιών παιδιών προσχολικής ηλικίας. Εκεί, ανέλαβε τον συντονισμό παιδικών εργαστηρίων και ψυχοεκπαιδευτικών ομιλιών, ως μέρος της θεραπευτικής παρέμβασης που ανέπτυξε στη διπλωματική της εργασία.

Με περισσότερα από 6 χρόνια επαγγελματικής εμπειρίας σε μεγάλους οργανισμούς και startups σε Ελλάδα και Ηνωμένο Βασίλειο, σε ρόλους που αφορούσαν το Human Resources και το Account Management, η Εύα έχει βαθιά κατανόηση των ανθρώπινων δυναμικών και της διαχείρισης σχέσεων σε πολυσύνθετα επαγγελματικά περιβάλλοντα. Έχει δουλέψει σε μεγάλα projects, με στόχο την αλλαγή εταιρικής κουλτούρας, εμπειρίες που τη βοήθησαν να δει καθαρά ότι η συμπεριφορά δεν μπορεί να εξεταστεί αποκομμένα από το πλαίσιο μέσα στο οποίο ζούμε, δουλεύουμε, μαθαίνουμε... Η έκθεσή της σε διαφορετικές κουλτούρες και οργανωτικά μοντέλα έχει ενισχύσει τη συστημική της οπτική, ώστε να αναγνωρίζει πώς η δομή, οι ρόλοι και τα επικοινωνιακά μοτίβα επηρεάζουν την ατομική και ομαδική συμπεριφορά.

Η επαγγελματική της εξειδίκευση συνεχίζεται μέσω του 4ετούς Προγράμματος Συστημικής Ψυχοθεραπείας & Συμβουλευτικής στο Εργαστήριο “Ροδάκινο”, το οποίο είναι αναγνωρισμένο από τον Ευρωπαϊκό Σύνδεσμο Οικογενειακών Θεραπευτών (E.F.T.A.). Ακόμα, κατέχει πιστοποιητικά επιμόρφωσης στις “Εφαρμογές Συμβουλευτικής σε παιδιά & εφήβους” και στην “Τέχνη ως Θεραπευτικό Εργαλείο”, ενώ συνεχίζει να εκπαιδεύεται πάνω στο αντικείμενό της μέσα από επιστημονικά προγράμματα που εμπλουτίζουν τις γνώσεις της. Αυτή την περίοδο πραγματοποιεί συνεδρίες με παιδιά, εφήβους, ενήλικες και οικογένειες σε πολυδύναμα Κέντρα Ειδικών Θεραπειών. Ταυτόχρονα, εργάζεται ως Ψυχολόγος, προσφέροντας εξ’ αποστάσεως υπηρεσίες συμβουλευτικής σε ανθρώπους όλων των ηλικιών, ενώ συμμετέχει εθελοντικά σε γραμμή τηλεφωνικής υποστήριξης.

Το επαγγελματικό της όραμα είναι να ενσωματώνει την επιστημονική της κατάρτιση με την πρακτική εμπειρία της. Στόχος της είναι να δημιουργεί χώρο, όπου κάθε άνθρωπος μπορεί να ακουστεί, να ενδυναμωθεί και να διαμορφώσει νέους, πιο υγιείς τρόπους σύνδεσης και επικοινωνίας με τους γύρω του.
