H Βασιλική Γκίκα είναι Ψυχολόγος και διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στο Κορωπί και παρέχει κατ' ιδίαν και online συνεδρίες.

Είναι ιδιαίτερα ευαισθητοποιημένη στη διερεύνηση θεμάτων που σχετίζονται με τον ψυχικό και σωματικό πόνο, τη μεταγνώση και τα παράδοξα που συχνά συνοδεύουν την ανθρώπινη εμπειρία. Πολλές φορές οι εσωτερικές μας συγκρούσεις, οι αντιφάσεις, τα διλήμματα, τα ερωτήματα που καλούμαστε να διαχειριστούμε αποτελούν ουσιαστικό κομμάτι της προσωπικής μας πορείας και μπορούν να γίνουν η αφετηρία μιας βαθύτερης κατανόησης του εαυτού. Στόχος της είναι η δημιουργία ενός ασφαλούς και ουσιαστικού πλαισίου, όπου θα μπορείς να εκφραστείς με αυθεντικότητα και να προσεγγίσεις με μεγαλύτερη επίγνωση τις σκέψεις, τα συναισθήματα και τις εμπειρίες σου. Μέσα από τη θεραπευτική διαδικασία ενισχύεται η μεταγνώση, δηλαδή η δυνατότητα να παρατηρούμε και να κατανοούμε βαθύτερα τον τρόπο με τον οποίο λειτουργούμε, σκεφτόμαστε και σχετιζόμαστε με τον εαυτό μας και τους άλλους. Η ενσυνειδητότητα (mindfulness) συμβάλλει στην ανάπτυξη μεγαλύτερης παρουσίας, αυτοπαρατήρησης και συναισθηματικής επίγνωσης, ενισχύοντας την ικανότητα του ατόμου να συνδέεται πιο ουσιαστικά με την παρούσα στιγμή και τις εσωτερικές του διεργασίες. Θεωρεί ότι η κατανόηση του εσωτερικού μας κόσμου μπορεί να συμβάλει ουσιαστικά στην ψυχική ισορροπία, την αυτογνωσία και την προσωπική μας εξέλιξη.
