About the specialist

Η Χατζηαναστασίου Κωνσταντίνα είναι Ψυχολόγος και διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στη Νέα Μάκρη.

Σπούδασε Ψυχολογία, συγκεκριμένα το πρόγραμμα Bsc Psycology Science του Canterbury Christ Church University. Έπειτα, ολοκλήρωσε τον 1ο και τον 2ο κύκλο “Εισαγωγικών διαλέξεων στην Ψυχανάλυση” της Ελληνικής Ψυχαναλυτικής Εταιρείας και το “Ετήσιο σεμινάριο στην Ψυχαναλυτική σκέψη και Πρακτική” της Διεπιστημονικής και Ερευνητικής Ψυχοκοινωνικής Υποστήριξης Παιδιών και Ενηλίκων (ΔΙ.ΚΕ.Ψ.Υ.).

Οι κατευθύνσεις στην ψυχοθεραπευτική προσέγγιση είναι της ψυχαναλυτικής ψυχοθεραπείας (Μετεκπαίδευση στην Ψυχαναλυτική/Ψυχοδυναμική Ψυχοθεραπεία Παιδιών, Εφήβων και Ενηλίκων του κέντρου ΔΙ.ΚΕ.Ψ.Υ.) και της σωματικά επικεντρωμένης ψυχοθεραπείας Gestalt (Ολοκληρωμένη Επαγγελματική Κατάρτιση στις τεχνικές της μεθόδου της Σωματικά Επικεντρωμένης Θεραπείας Gestalt” στο Unity Energetics Institute). 

Ακόμη, έχει παρακολουθήσει διάφορα εκπαιδευτικά προγράμματα με θέμα την παιγνιοθεραπεία, την οικογενειακή θεραπεία, την συναισθηματική νοημοσύνη, την διαχείριση συναισθημάτων κ.α.

Πιστεύει στην συνεχή εκπαίδευση ως ψυχοθεραπεύτρια και ως άτομο καθώς είναι σημαντικό να εμπεριέχεται παλαιότερη και σύγχρονη γνώση καθώς και μία συνθετική οπτική της ψυχοθεραπείας που να βοηθάει τον θεραπεύομενο με διάφορες τεχνικές και μέσα για την επίτευξη της θεραπείας. Η κατεύθυνση της στις ψυχοθεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις της ψυχαναλυτικής θεραπείας και της σωματικά επικεντρωμένης ψυχοθεραπείας Gestalt αντικατοπτρίζουν την δική της προσέγγιση για το ψυχικό τραύμα και το σύμπτωμα. Το σύμπτωμα συνοδεύει μια μακρά ιστορία που ο θεραπευόμενος μαζί με τον θεραπευτή αναζητεί, αναγνωρίζει και επεξεργάζεται με σκοπό την ψυχική ίαση. Τα ψυχικά τραύματα εδράζουν, κατά το μεγαλύτερο ποσοστό τους, σε ένα ασυνείδητο κομμάτι που δεν έχουμε πρόσβαση και καθορίζουν τον τρόπο που αντιλαμβανόμαστε τον εαυτό μας, τους ανθρώπους και την ζωή. Είναι σε συνεχή ατομική ψυχοθεραπεία και εποπτεία των ψυχοθεραπειών που αναλαμβάνει. Τέλος, είναι σε συνεχή ατομική ψυχοθεραπεία και εποπτεία των ψυχοθεραπειών που αναλαμβάνει.

About the specialist

Είμαι ο Γιάννης Πράπας, Ψυχολόγος - Ψυχοθεραπευτής και διατηρώ ιδιωτικό γραφείο στον Γέρακα Αττικής. Έχω σπουδάσει Ψυχολογία στην Ελλάδα, στο Εθνικό και Καποδιστριακό Πανεπιστήμιο Αθηνών (Ε.Κ.Π.Α.), και στην Ιταλία, στο eCampus University, ενώ η ακαδημαϊκή και επαγγελματική μου πορεία περιλαμβάνει σπουδές, εκπαίδευση και κλινική εμπειρία στην Ελλάδα και το εξωτερικό στους τομείς της Ψυχοθεραπείας, της Συμβουλευτικής, της Ψυχογλωσσολογίας και της Εκπαίδευσης Ενηλίκων.

Σημαντικό σταθμό στην επαγγελματική και θεραπευτική μου διαδρομή στο εξωτερικό αποτέλεσε η εργασία μου στο Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh στη Σκωτία, στον τομέα της Συμβουλευτικής και της Ψυχοθεραπείας. Η εμπειρία μου σε ένα μεγάλο νοσοκομειακό και διεπιστημονικό περιβάλλον συνέβαλε ουσιαστικά στη διαμόρφωση της θεραπευτικής μου ταυτότητας και στην ανάπτυξη μιας περισσότερο ολιστικής αντίληψης για την ψυχική υγεία. Η θεραπευτική επαφή με ανθρώπους που καλούνται να διαχειριστούν ψυχολογική επιβάρυνση, ασθένεια, φόβο, αβεβαιότητα, απώλεια και σημαντικές μεταβάσεις ζωής ενίσχυσε την πεποίθησή μου ότι η ψυχοθεραπεία χρειάζεται να προσεγγίζει τον άνθρωπο ως μια σύνθετη βιοψυχοκοινωνική ολότητα και όχι απλώς ως φορέα ενός συμπτώματος ή μιας διάγνωσης.

Είμαι κάτοχος διπλωμάτων στη Συνθετική–Απαρτιωτική Ψυχοθεραπεία, στη Συμβουλευτική και στη Θετική Ψυχοθεραπεία, ενώ η θεραπευτική μου κατάρτιση περιλαμβάνει διαφορετικά θεωρητικά και κλινικά μοντέλα. Στην πρακτική μου αξιοποιώ στοιχεία και τεχνικές από τη Γνωσιακή–Συμπεριφοριστική Θεραπεία (CBT), τη Διαλεκτική Συμπεριφορική Θεραπεία (DBT), τη Συστημική, την Ψυχοδυναμική, τη Σχηματοθεραπεία, την Προσωποκεντρική και άλλες σύγχρονες συνθετικές προσεγγίσεις.

Κεντρικός άξονας της δουλειάς μου είναι η ψυχοθεραπεία. Αντιλαμβάνομαι κάθε θεραπευόμενο ως μια ξεχωριστή ψυχολογική πραγματικότητα και όχι ως μια διάγνωση, ένα σύμπτωμα ή μια κατηγορία. Για τον λόγο αυτό δεν θεωρώ ότι υπάρχει μία θεραπευτική μέθοδος κατάλληλη για όλους. Η θεραπευτική παρέμβαση χρειάζεται να προσαρμόζεται στον άνθρωπο, στην προσωπικότητά του, στο αναπτυξιακό και οικογενειακό του ιστορικό, στις σχέσεις του, στις άμυνές του, στις ιδιαίτερες δυσκολίες του αλλά και στη συγκεκριμένη φάση της ζωής στην οποία βρίσκεται.

Στο πλαίσιο αυτό, με ενδιαφέρουν ιδιαίτερα οι σύγχρονες και καινοτόμες κατευθύνσεις της ψυχοθεραπείας και η λογική της εξατομικευμένης και συνθετικής θεραπευτικής παρέμβασης. Παρακολουθώ τη σύγχρονη διεθνή επιστημονική γνώση και προσεγγίσεις που αναπτύσσονται σε πανεπιστημιακά και ερευνητικά περιβάλλοντα, μεταξύ των οποίων και το University of Minnesota, με στόχο η θεραπεία να μην εφαρμόζεται μηχανιστικά, αλλά να οργανώνεται δυναμικά γύρω από τις πραγματικές ανάγκες, τις δυνατότητες και τη λειτουργικότητα του θεραπευόμενου.

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

Helps the individual to change dysfunctional thought patterns and behaviors. Improves your functioning and quality of life by helping to change patterns and behaviours. Teaches you to be your own self-therapist.

Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT)
mental health

What it is

It is a form of psychotherapy that teaches a person to identify negative thought patterns and change them. DBT reinforces the acceptance that all your thoughts are valid, as they are part of your life experiences and who you are. The person acts by doing the best they can for the moment. It is used for people with suicidal behavior, post-traumatic stress disorder, substance use disorder, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, ADHD, depression, anxiety.

Approach

DBT focuses on acceptance and change. It helps the person to get to know themselves better, to think about why they do what they do, without judgment. Replacing a negative behavior or habit with ones that can improve the quality of life. Dialectic is the idea that two different things can be true at the same time. At the same time as accepting yourself exactly as you are, comes the recognition of your effort to change.

How it could benefit you

It helps you make positive changes in the way you act. It identifies your negative thought patterns and changes them, helping to make positive changes in the way you act. Teaches you ways to manage intense emotions and stressful thoughts when they occur.

Humanistic psychotherapy
mental health

What it is

Humanistic therapy is a form of psychotherapy in which self-awareness and self-acceptance are considered the keys to personal growth. It emphasizes creativity, collaboration and interaction between the individual and the therapist, using techniques such as role-play.

Approach

Each person is a combination of mind, emotions, body and soul with unique experiences and events. No single life event, personality trait or psychological diagnosis defines you.

How it could benefit you

It improves self-awareness and self-confidence, helps you understand how your past affects your present, how to deal effectively with stressful situations, improves human relationships and helps you better manage your emotions.

Psychodynamic psychotherapy
mental health

What it is

Psychodynamic psychotherapy is talk therapy that aims to understand current thoughts and feelings through the behaviours shaped by past experiences and the past. Understanding the past can help you avoid repeating unhelpful patterns that have existed in it and facilitate your quality of life alongside relief from distressing symptoms. It is used in depression, anxiety, interpersonal problems, addictions, trauma, eating disorders, personality disorder.

Approach

Psychodynamic psychotherapy provides a space to explore and understand how unhelpful patterns from the past may be influencing our current difficulties. Defence mechanisms are explored and how our feelings and behaviours in the present are shaped by our past experiences.

How it could benefit you

It helps people to live a healthier life. There may be things in a person's unconscious that they are not aware of that cause them pain or keep them stuck in the past. Identifying these and understanding them can lead you to move forward.

Systemic psychotherapy
mental health

What it is

Systemic psychotherapy is an approach about how the individual acts as part of a wider group or broader system of relationships: family, partner relationship, work, friendships, and social environment. This approach connects communication and interaction patterns with a problem or a difficulty that the individual may be experiencing.

Approach

Systemic psychotherapy identifies behavioral patterns within a persons’ relationships and in the way someone connects with others. It helps the individual understand themselves more effectively, along with their roles and communication style and supports them in developing more functional ways of thinking and communicating within their system.

How it could benefit you

It helps improve understanding of relationship and family dynamics. It can change dysfunctional communication and behavior patterns within the system, strengthen empathy, support the development of stronger relationships and help with managing conflicts and difficulties.
