About the specialist

Η Λευκαδίτη Ιωάννα MSc είναι Ψυχολόγος, με μεταπτυχιακές σπουδές (MSc) στην Κλινική Ψυχολογία από το University of Wales, UK και πτυχίο Ψυχολογίας από το Πάντειο Πανεπιστήμιο. Διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στο κέντρο της Αθήνας, στην περιοχή του Συντάγματος.

Η προσέγγισή της είναι προσωποκεντρική, με έμφαση στην ενσυναίσθηση, την αυθεντική επικοινωνία και τον σεβασμό στις ανάγκες και στον ρυθμό κάθε ατόμου. Αυτό σημαίνει ότι η θεραπεία διαμορφώνεται πλήρως εξατομικευμένα, θέτοντας τα θεμέλια για πραγματική αλλαγή που διαρκεί. Παράλληλα ενσωματώνει στοιχεία από προσεγγίσεις όπως το IFS και το TIST, καθώς και τις σωματικά προσανατολισμένες ψυχοθεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις. Οι προσεγγίσεις αυτές υποστηρίζουν το άτομο να χτίσει μια νέου είδους σχέση με τον εαυτό και κατ' επέκταση με τους γύρω του, με περισσότερη ροή και άνεση. Δημιουργεί ένα ασφαλές, υποστηρικτικό περιβάλλον, εντός του οποίου υποστηρίζει το άτομο να διερευνήσει τα συναισθήματα (όπως θλίψη, άγχος, θυμός, πένθος) και τις καταστάσεις που το δυσκολεύουν (όπως προβλήματα σχέσεων, θέματα στην εργασία, κοινωνική ζωή, προσωπικές επιλογές, burnout, συμπεριφορές που έχουν να κάνουν με εθισμό).

Η προσωποκεντρική προσέγγιση έχει στον πυρήνα της την αποδοχή και τον σεβασμό στην προσωπικότητα του κάθε ατόμου. Έτσι, η θεραπεία δεν πιέζει το άτομο, αλλά το υποστηρίζει ουσιαστικά και το συνοδεύει στο ταξίδι του προς τον προορισμό που το ίδιο θα επιλέξει για τον εαυτό του. Εντός αυτού του πλαισίου, το άτομο νιώθει ελεύθερο να διερευνήσει τον εαυτό του, να ενδυναμώσει το ίδιο τις δεξιότητές του και εντέλει να κάνει τις επιλογές που το εκφράζουν. Η κατανόηση των λόγων που αναδύονται "δύσκολα" συναισθήματα, των επιλογών καθώς και των αξιών που οδηγούν το άτομο σε αδιέξοδα, αλλά και των αυθεντικών επιθυμιών μπορεί να οδηγήσει όχι μόνο σε μεγαλύτερη αυτογνωσία αλλά και στην καλλιέργεια προσωπικής ισορροπίας, ώστε να στεκεται το άτομο με περισσότερη αυτοπεποίθηση στις προκλήσεις της ζωής.

Έχει εκπαιδευτεί στη Γνωσιακή Αναλυτική Ψυχοθεραπεία και βρίσκεται σε εκπαίδευση στην Προσωποκεντρική Θεραπεία και Focusing. Έχει ολοκληρώσει κύκλους εκπαίδευσης μικρής διάρκειας στην τραυματοθεραπεία και στο Internal Family Systems (IFS), διάρκειας από 3 ημέρες έως και 6 μήνες, υπό την αιγίδα της PESI. Οι εκπαιδεύσεις πραγματοποιήθηκαν με εισηγητές διεθνούς κύρους, όπως οι Frank Anderson, Janina Fisher και Bessel van der Kolk, και της έδωσαν τη δυνατότητα να εμβαθύνει σε σύγχρονες θεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις που συνδέουν τη θεωρία με την πρακτική εφαρμογή στην ψυχοθεραπευτική διαδικασία.

Η εκπαίδευση της στους τομείς αυτούς είναι συνεχόμενη, περιλαμβάνοντας κύκλους εκπαίδευσης στην Θεωρία του Πνευμονογαστρικού νεύρου, ενσωματώνοντας στοιχεία από τις τελευταιες εξελίξεις στον χώρο της νευροεπιστήμης στην προσέγγισή της. Έχει επίσης σπουδάσει Αγγλική Φιλολογία στο Εθνικό και Καποδιστριακό Πανεπιστήμιο Αθηνών και πραγματοποιεί συνεδρίες και στα Αγγλικά. Συνοδεύει με σταθερότητα και συνέπεια τους θεραπευόμενους να ανακαλύψουν και να σταθούν στις αξίες τους, να ανακαλύψουν μια νέα σχέση με τον εαυτό, να αγκαλιάσουν τις δυνατότητές τους, και να δημιουργήσουν μια ζωή που αντανακλά ποιοι πραγματικά είναι.

Βασική της προτεραιότητα αποτελεί η δημιουργία ενός ασφαλούς, συνεργατικού και υποστηρικτικού θεραπευτικού πλαισίου, μέσα στο οποίο κάθε άνθρωπος μπορεί να νιώσει ότι ακούγεται, γίνεται κατανοητός και αντιμετωπίζεται με σεβασμό.Παράλληλα, έχει παρακολουθήσει σεμινάρια όπως η Συμβουλευτική Γονέων, η Συστημική Σεξολογία και Σεξοθεραπεία Ζευγαριών και Ατόμων, Άγχος& Κρίσεις Πανικού, Ψυχοπαθολογία κ.α.

About the specialist

Emmanouela Brun is a mental health counselor dedicated to helping individuals gain a deep understanding of themselves and face life’s challenges with strength and clarity. She combines dynamic psychology with insights from neuroscience to offer thoughtful, personalized support.Emmanouela has always been deeply curious about how the human mind works and has felt a natural calling to support and uplift others.This innate curiosity and empathy are what led her to the path she follows today.Being half Greek and half Italian, she grew up within two cultures — an experience that sparked a deep fascination with how people from different backgrounds think, communicate, and navigate the world.Through her life and work, she has witnessed how easily misunderstandings can arise between people from different perspectives — how one person may mean one thing and another interpret it differently. These experiences have continually reminded her how intricate and nuanced human psychology truly is.Emmanouela began her academic journey at the University of Padua, where she earned her bachelor’s degree in Social Psychology and studied abroad for a semester at the University of Lisbon. After completing her degree, she immersed herself in dynamic psychology, attending courses at the University of Turin and exploring the power of the inner world.She later returned to Padua to complete her master’s in Cognitive and Applied Psychology, deepening her understanding of how thoughts, emotions, and the brain intertwine.Today, Emmanouela enjoys blending insights from psychoanalysis and dynamic psychology with discoveries from neuroscience and cognitive psychology.She spent a year providing psychological support to immigrant children and to those from abusive families in a school setting, and later offered assistance at a center for individuals with disabilities in Padua.Since 2023, she has established her own private practice, where she continues to offer therapy and psychological support.Each step of her journey has strengthened her belief in the power of human connection and in the profound impact that people can have on one another’s lives.In her practice, Emmanouela believes that behaviors, thoughts, and emotions are deeply influenced by unconscious processes and unresolved conflicts.She views the mind as a complex system, where what lies beneath the surface often holds the key to understanding current struggles. Every symptom, pattern, and emotional challenge has a deeper root cause — often stemming from past experiences, unconscious beliefs, and early life events.Her work focuses on uncovering these underlying forces, bringing them into conscious awareness, and understanding how they continue to shape behavior today.Emmanouela aims to help people make sense of their inner world, gain insight into their emotional lives, and work through unresolved issues that may be hindering their growth and well-being.She is also deeply interested in the connection between mind and body. For her, thoughts and emotions are not merely abstract ideas; they have a tangible, biological foundation that affects the nervous system, brain function, and overall health.By integrating insights from neuroscience and cognitive psychology, she explains how unconscious processes are also influenced by brain activity and physiological responses.This holistic perspective allows her to approach therapy in a more complete and practical way.Ultimately, Emmanouela’s work aims to help individuals explore what lies beneath the surface of their lives — to uncover the roots of their emotional patterns, understand their true motivations, and find clarity and purpose.Her goal is not only to guide people toward greater self-awareness but also to empower them to create meaningful, lasting change that leads to a more authentic and fulfilling life.
