Η Δράκου Αναστασία είναι Ψυχολόγος – Ψυχοθεραπεύτρια | Γνωσιακή-Συμπεριφορική Ψυχοθεραπεία (CBT) και πραγματοποιεί διαδικτυακές συνεδρίες. Είναι απόλυτα φυσιολογικό κάποιες φορές να νιώθουμε ότι δυσκολευόμαστε να διαχειριστούμε το άγχος, τα συναισθήματα ή μια αλλαγή στη ζωή μας. Δεν χρειάζεται, όμως, να περιμένουμε μέχρι η δυσκολία να γίνει μεγαλύτερη για να ζητήσουμε βοήθεια. Παράλληλα, πραγματοποιεί μεταπτυχιακές σπουδές στην Αναπτυξιακή Ψυχολογία, ενώ έχει εκπαιδευτεί και στην Αφηγηματική Θεραπεία. Διαθέτει επαγγελματική εμπειρία σε διαφορετικά πλαίσια ψυχικής υγείας και υποστήριξης, έχοντας εργαστεί τόσο με ενήλικες όσο και με παιδιά, εφήβους και οικογένειες. Στη θεραπευτική διαδικασία δεν πιστεύει σε μία λύση που ταιριάζει σε όλους. Για αυτό προσαρμόζει τον τρόπο δουλειάς στις ανάγκες, την προσωπικότητα και τον ρυθμό κάθε ανθρώπου. Ανάλογα με το θεραπευτικό αίτημα, αξιοποιεί τεχνικές όπως η καταγραφή σκέψεων και συναισθημάτων, η γνωσιακή αναπλαισίωση και το role playing, με στόχο η θεραπεία να είναι ουσιαστική αλλά και πρακτικά χρήσιμη στην καθημερινότητα. Για την ίδια, η Ψυχολογία είναι λειτούργημα και σχέση εμπιστοσύνης. Προσπαθεί να δημιουργεί ένα ασφαλές περιβάλλον όπου ο θεραπευόμενος μπορεί να μιλήσει ανοιχτά, χωρίς φόβο κριτικής και χωρίς την πίεση να έχει από την αρχή όλες τις απαντήσεις. Ο ρόλος της είναι να λειτουργεί ως σύμμαχος και συνοδοιπόρος στη θεραπευτική διαδικασία: να βοηθά τον άνθρωπο να κατανοήσει καλύτερα τον εαυτό του, να αναγνωρίσει τα μοτίβα που τον δυσκολεύουν και να αναπτύξει νέους, πιο λειτουργικούς τρόπους διαχείρισης των δυσκολιών του.

About the specialist

Η Καρακοπούλου Αλεξάνδρα είναι Σύμβουλος Ψυχικής Υγείας και συνοδεύει ενήλικες και ζευγάρια που αντιμετωπίζουν άγχος, στρες, δυσκολίες στις σχέσεις, μειωμένη αυτοεκτίμηση, κρίσεις πανικού ή συναισθηματική αστάθεια. Στηρίζει ανθρώπους που βιώνουν burnout, έντονη εσωτερική πίεση, σύγχυση κατεύθυνσης ή επαναλαμβανόμενα μοτίβα που δυσκολεύουν την καθημερινότητα και την ψυχική τους ισορροπία. Η δουλειά της βασίζεται στη συνθετική συμβουλευτική, συνδυάζοντας σύγχρονες ψυχοθεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις με βιωματικά εργαλεία, ώστε η διαδικασία να προσαρμόζεται φυσικά στις ανάγκες του κάθε ανθρώπου.

Έχει πολυετή διεθνή εμπειρία στη Βιέννη, όπου σπούδασε Ψυχολογική Αστρολογία, Θεατρολογία, Κινηματογραφοθεραπεία, Επικοινωνία και ολοκλήρωσε την εκπαίδευσή της στην Συνθετική Συμβουλευτική και στην προσεγγιστική εργασία με το άτομο και το ζευγάρι. Η εκπαίδευσή της, της δίνει τη δυνατότητα να προσεγγίζει τόσο τα συναισθηματικά όσο και τα διαπροσωπικά ζητήματα με βάθος, πρακτικότητα και δημιουργικότητα. Για όσους το επιθυμούν, ενσωματώνει ψυχολογική αστρολογία ως εργαλείο αυτογνωσίας και κατανόησης προσωπικών κύκλων, πάντα μέσα σε ασφαλές, επιστημονικά δομημένο πλαίσιο.

Στις συνεδρίες μαζί της, δημιουργείται ένας χώρος όπου η επικοινωνία γίνεται πιο καθαρή, η εσωτερική πίεση μειώνεται και αρχίζει να ξεκαθαρίζει αυτό που χρειάζεσαι πραγματικά. Εργάζεται συχνά με ανθρώπους που δυσκολεύονται στη διαχείριση άγχους, που εγκλωβίζονται σε σκέψεις, που νιώθουν μπλοκαρισμένοι σε αποφάσεις ή που έχουν φθαρεί μέσα σε σχέσεις που δεν τους στηρίζουν. Με τη βοήθεια της θεραπευτικής διαδικασίας, βρίσκονται πρακτικές λύσεις, νέοι τρόποι επικοινωνίας, καλύτερη συναισθηματική ρύθμιση και πιο σταθερή αίσθηση εαυτού.

Δουλεύει online, προσφέροντας σταθερότητα, καθαρή δομή και ένα περιβάλλον όπου το άτομο μπορεί να μιλήσει χωρίς φόβο ότι θα παρεξηγηθεί. Στόχος της είναι να στηρίξει τους ανθρώπους να διαχειρίζονται αποτελεσματικά το άγχος, να κατανοήσουν τα βαθύτερα μοτίβα στις σχέσεις τους, να ενισχύσουν την αυτοεκτίμησή τους και να νιώσουν ότι μπορούν να σταθούν πιο σίγουρα μέσα στη ζωή τους. Η διαδικασία εξελίσσεται με φυσικό ρυθμό και δίνει χώρο στο άτομο να αναπνεύσει, να ξεκαθαρίσει, να δυναμώσει και να επιστρέψει σε μια πιο ισορροπημένη εκδοχή του εαυτού του.
