Απευθύνεται σε ενήλικες και πραγματοποιεί συνεδρίες τόσο δια ζώσης όσο και διαδικτυακά.

Η Αθηνά Γονατά είναι Ψυχολόγος και Ψυχοθεραπεύτρια, αριστούχος απόφοιτη του Τμήματος Ψυχολογίας του Εθνικού και Καποδιστριακού Πανεπιστημίου Αθηνών (ΕΚΠΑ) και κάτοχος άδειας ασκήσεως επαγγέλματος Ψυχολόγου (Αρ. Πρωτ. 315016). Πραγματοποιεί ατομικές συνεδρίες ψυχοθεραπείας σε εφήβους και ενήλικες και συνεδρίες θεραπείας ζεύγους, δια ζώσης στο Νέο Ψυχικό και online.

Έχει ολοκληρώσει την εκπαίδευσή της στην Γνωσιακή & Αναλυτική Ψυχοθεραπεία στο Ιατρικό Ψυχοθεραπευτικό Κέντρο Θεσσαλονίκης (Ι.Ψ.Κ.). Παράλληλα είναι εκπαιδευόμενη στην Συστημική Οικογενειακή Θεραπεία στο Κέντρο Συστημικής Θεραπείας, Εκπαίδευσης και Συμβουλευτικής (Κε.ΣΥ.Θ.Ε.Σ.), διευρύνοντας την επιστημονική και θεραπευτική της κατάρτιση με έμφαση στην κατανόηση του ανθρώπου μέσα στο πλαίσιο των σχέσεων και του περιβάλλοντός του.

Η θεραπευτική της πορεία ξεκίνησε στο Ψυχιατρικό Τμήμα του Γενικού Νοσοκομείου Αθηνών «Γ. Γεννηματάς», όπου ήρθε σε επαφή με διαφορετικές κλινικές εικόνες, ανθρώπους και θεραπευτικές ανάγκες. Η εμπειρία αυτή αποτέλεσε σημαντικό βήμα και συνέβαλε ουσιαστικά στον τρόπο με τον οποίο διαμορφώθηκε η θεραπευτική της ματιά.

Η θεραπευτική της προσέγγιση βασίζεται στην εξατομικευμένη κατανόηση κάθε ανθρώπου και της προσωπικής του ιστορίας. Ιδιαίτερη σημασία δίνει στον τρόπο με τον οποίο διαμορφώνονται και επαναλαμβάνονται μοτίβα στις σχέσεις, στην επικοινωνία και στον τρόπο με τον οποίο οι άνθρωποι συνδέονται μεταξύ τους. Η οπτική αυτή αξιοποιείται τόσο στην ατομική ψυχοθεραπεία όσο και στην θεραπεία ζεύγους, όπου το ενδιαφέρον στρέφεται στην δυναμική της σχέσης, στις ανάγκες των δύο συντρόφων, στους τρόπους επικοινωνίας και στις δυσκολίες που μπορεί να έχουν δημιουργηθεί μεταξύ τους.

Η θεραπεία αποτελεί έναν χώρο όπου μπορεί κανείς να σταθεί με μεγαλύτερη προσοχή στις σκέψεις, τα συναισθήματα και τις σχέσεις του, να κατανοήσει καλύτερα όσα τον δυσκολεύουν και να επεξεργαστεί όσα βιώνει με τον δικό του ρυθμό. Μέσα σε ένα πλαίσιο αποδοχής και ασφάλειας, η θεραπευτική διαδικασία μπορεί να ανοίξει τον δρόμο για νέους, πιο λειτουργικούς τρόπους διαχείρισης των δυσκολιών και της σύνδεσης με τον εαυτό και τους άλλους.
