About the specialist

Η Σιδέρη Ρόσσι Μαρία MSc είναι Ψυχολόγος - Ψυχοθεραπεύτρια με περισσότερα από 15 χρόνια κλινικής ψυχοθεραπευτικής εμπειρίας και περισσότερες από δύο δεκαετίες επαγγελματικής παρουσίας στον χώρο της ψυχικής υγείας.

Από το 2009 διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο, υποστηρίζοντας ενήλικες και ζευγάρια σε ζητήματα άγχους, κρίσεων πανικού, ψυχοσωματικής επιβάρυνσης, συναισθηματικής δυσκολίας, δυσκολιών στις σχέσεις, επαναλαμβανόμενων μοτίβων ζωής, εσωτερικής σύγχυσης και αναζήτησης βαθύτερης προσωπικής ισορροπίας και νοήματος.

Οι κρίσεις πανικού και οι έντονες αγχώδεις καταστάσεις δεν αφορούν μόνο τη σκέψη, αλλά εκφράζονται άμεσα μέσα από το σώμα. Δύσπνοια, ταχυκαρδία, αίσθημα απώλειας ελέγχου, ένταση στο στήθος, ζάλη, αϋπνία, συνεχής υπερένταση ή φόβος ότι "κάτι κακό θα συμβεί" είναι συχνά σημάδια ενός νευρικού συστήματος που βρίσκεται σε συνεχή κατάσταση συναγερμού.

Η Σωματική Ψυχοθεραπεία βοηθά το άτομο να κατανοήσει πώς το άγχος εγγράφεται στο σώμα, πώς δημιουργούνται οι σωματικές θωρακίσεις και πώς μπορεί σταδιακά να αποκατασταθεί η αίσθηση ασφάλειας, σταθερότητας και εσωτερικής ρύθμισης.

Η θεραπευτική της προσέγγιση βασίζεται στη βαθιά σύνδεση σώματος και ψυχισμού. Πολλές φορές, αυτό που δεν μπορεί να εκφραστεί με λόγια έχει ήδη αποτυπωθεί στο σώμα: χρόνιες εντάσεις, δυσκολία στη χαλάρωση, αίσθημα εσωτερικής πίεσης, ψυχική κόπωση ή αποσύνδεση από το συναίσθημα και τη ζωτικότητα. Η εργασία της εστιάζει στη σχέση ανάμεσα στο σώμα, το συναίσθημα και τα ασυνείδητα ψυχολογικά μοτίβα που διαμορφώνουν τον τρόπο με τον οποίο σχετιζόμαστε με τον εαυτό μας, τους άλλους και τη ζωή.

Είναι δημιουργός της Somatic Release Method, μιας συνθετικής ψυχοσωματικής μεθόδου που αναπτύχθηκε μέσα από πολυετή κλινική εμπειρία και διεθνή εκπαίδευση. Η μέθοδος αυτή συνδυάζει τη σωματικά προσανατολισμένη ψυχοθεραπεία, τη βαθύτερη ψυχοδυναμική κατανόηση και μια υπαρξιακή και διαπροσωπική προσέγγιση της ανθρώπινης ανάπτυξης.

Το Somatic Release Method βοηθά το άτομο να αναγνωρίσει τις σωματικές θωρακίσεις και τα παγιωμένα αμυντικά μοτίβα, να επεξεργαστεί το άγχος και τις βαθύτερες συναισθηματικές του ρίζες, να ενισχύσει την ικανότητα αυτορρύθμισης και να επανασυνδεθεί με την αίσθηση εσωτερικής συνοχής, ευχαρίστησης και ζωτικότητας.

Η θεραπεία απευθύνεται ιδιαίτερα σε ανθρώπους που βιώνουν έντονο άγχος, κρίσεις πανικού, συναισθηματική υπερένταση ή δυσκολία να νιώσουν ασφάλεια μέσα στο ίδιο τους το σώμα. Συχνά πρόκειται για ανθρώπους που εξωτερικά λειτουργούν αποτελεσματικά, αλλά εσωτερικά βιώνουν διαρκή ένταση, φόβο, κόπωση ή αίσθηση απώλειας ελέγχου.

Πιστεύει ότι η ουσιαστική θεραπεία δεν αφορά μόνο την ανακούφιση από το σύμπτωμα, αλλά τη βαθύτερη επανασύνδεση με τον εαυτό, τη συναισθηματική αλήθεια και τη φυσική ικανότητα του ανθρώπου να νιώθει ασφάλεια, σχέση και ζωή με περισσότερη παρουσία και εσωτερική ελευθερία.

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
