Η Βογιατζή Σοφία BSc, MSc είναι Ψυχολόγος με ειδίκευση στην Προσωποκεντρική ψυχοθεραπεία και διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στην Αθήνα.

Η επιλογή της να ασχοληθεί με την ψυχολογία προέκυψε από το ενδιαφέρον της για τον άνθρωπο, τις σχέσεις και τον τρόπο με τον οποίο ο καθένας βιώνει και νοηματοδοτεί την εμπειρία του.

Στο πλαίσιο της δουλειάς της, στόχος της είναι να προσφέρει έναν ασφαλή και υποστηρικτικό χώρο, όπου κάθε άνθρωπος μπορεί να εκφραστεί ελεύθερα, χωρίς φόβο κριτικής, έτσι όπως ακριβώς είναι. Πιστεύει βαθιά, ότι ο καθένας έχει μέσα του τη δυνατότητα για κατανόηση, εξέλιξη και αλλαγή, όταν βρεθεί στο κατάλληλο περιβάλλον όπου νοιώθει και είναι αποδεκτός χωρίς όρους.

Η προσέγγισή της βασίζεται στην αυθεντική σχέση, την ενσυναίσθηση και τον σεβασμό στη μοναδικότητα του κάθε ατόμου. Δίνει έμφαση στον ρυθμό και τις ανάγκες του θεραπευόμενου, συνοδεύοντάς τον στο μονοπάτι προς τη συνάντηση με τον εαυτό του και την προσωπική του ανάπτυξη.

Η εφηβεία είναι μια περίοδος σημαντικών αλλαγών και προκλήσεων και έτσι η θεραπευτική υποστήριξη μπορεί να βοηθήσει τον έφηβο να εκφράσει σκέψεις και συναισθήματα, να ενισχύσει την αυτοπεποίθησή του και να διαχειριστεί τις δυσκολίες της καθημερινότητας. Επιπλέον παρέχει συμβουλευτική υποστήριξη, μια βραχυπρόθεσμη υποστήριξη για συγκεκριμένες δυσκολίες ή αποφάσεις ζωής, με στόχο την κατανόηση και την εύρεση τρόπων διαχείρισης.
