I want to better understand my feelings and thoughts.
To discover my strengths and weaknesses.
To better understand how the way I was raised informs my behaviour today and affects how I relate to others in the here and now.
To get to grips with why some situations and particular behaviours upset me and trigger defences that make life harder for me and those around me and to stop getting into these upsetting situations.
To find better, more adaptive ways of dealing with the challenges of relationships and life.
Life has become very hard and I struggle most of the time.
I don't want to do anything, my work, my relationship, my family, everything gives me anxiety.
I struggle to find meaning and enjoyment in life.
I feel so incredibly lonely.
I want to stop feeling like I'm choking or drowning.
I want to stop feeling guilt or shame.
I want to get in touch with my feelings.
It's like a voice in my head that constantly tells me I'm doing things wrong, that I come lacking, that I need to keep trying, or that I should just quit.
I take care of everyone and nobody seems to want to take care of me.
I try so hard but nobody seems to appreciate me.
I often judge myself and I often feel that others judge me too.
I often judge others and I get so angry with them.
Negative thoughts are a daily part of my life.
I want to understand what abuse is, how to call it out it, what to do about it and how it affects or has affected me in the way that I perceive myself and the people around me. I want to find a way to change things. I want to leave my partner/spouse but I can't. I can't talk to anybody about the abuse; I'm always hiding it from people around me, carrying this dark secret inside me. I want to stop feeling like "I'm crazy" or "always in the wrong". My partner/parent/friend/boss is a narcissist and I don't know how to best deal with the situation.
I want to be able to communicate more effectively and respond more appropriately in my relationships. I want to speak and be heard. I want to know what I need and how to ask for it. I want to stop being one foot in and one foot out of my relationships. I want to not be so afraid of commitment or abandonment. I want to learn to fight better. I want to learn to listen better. I want to learn to love better.

The introductory session costs €80. Beyond this introductory session, my full fee is €120/session. I’m able to accept a few clients at a lower rate so more people can reach my services, and so I operate a sliding scale, ranging between €120 and €80. Please read the terms of psychotherapy service.
I am happy to discuss the fee with you during our first session.
Once I receive your booking, I will email you all the relevant payment details, based on your request, so you can go ahead and make the payment.

I am a licensed psychologist and psychoanalytic psychotherapist with years of experience in providing therapy, both face to face in my office and online.
In my experience of working online, I have found that in order to create a meaningful and working therapeutic relationship, it’s essential for us to be able to see and hear each other, to have a face and a voice. Hence, no chat sessions are offered.
Having lived abroad for many years, I have experience with other cultures and I can relate to the challenges you might be faced with when moving to and living in a new country.
Payment can be made through Paypal with a few clicks or via bank transfer.
The Internal”, painting by Greek painter Natalia Thomaidi, presented with her express permission.
I am a qualified psychoanalytic psychotherapist and a licensed psychologist in Greece. I provide psychotherapy online from my office in the city of Thessaloniki.
My basic training is in psychoanalytic psychotherapy. Over the last 8 years I have also been using tools from other types of therapeutic models such as Relational Life Therapy (RLT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and some theoretical principles of parts work, specifically Internal Family Systems (IFS). I use all these tools in my work with you, as I have found that they can enrich your journey and be very helpful.
I am a fluent English speaker, as I have lived and worked in the United Kingdom for 14 years. I enjoy working with a diverse range of people of various nationalities and cultures, residing in many parts of the world.
I am committed to helping you make a difference in your life and get to a place where you are content and able to manage and cope with the stresses of love and life in the way that feels right for you.
