About me
I am a mental health counsellor living in Berlin since 2015, hailing originally from Greece. Having spent most of my adult life abroad, I bring a diverse and open-minded perspective to my practice. I started out on a different professional path but 10 years ago decided to pursue my interest in understanding and helping people and I studied Counselling Psychology. Over the years I have continued my education, gaining expertise in specific fields of counselling. I offer counselling for individuals and I am a certified couples and family counsellor, with additional training in counselling for parents.
I see a counsellor as a trusted companion, providing a supportive environment for individuals to navigate and understand their life experiences. Central to my practice is the creation of an empathetic and confidential space where clients feel safe to explore their thoughts and feelings, gain self-awareness and ultimately face their challenges.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
CounsellingRecommended for those who want to talk through their emotional challenges with a professional in a safe, supportive environment.
EFT: Emotionally focused therapyRecommended for couples or individuals who want to strengthen emotional connections in relationships by exploring feelings and attachment.
Humanistic psychologyRecommended for those looking for a therapy that emphasizes personal growth and self-fulfillment, focusing on becoming your best self in a positive, non-judgmental space.
My approach is based on person-centered therapy integrating tools and techniques from other theoretical frameworks. Each person and situation is unique and requires a holistic perspective in order to create the supportive environment needed for a specific individual at a specific point in their life. The first sessions focus on building a trusting and non-judgemental relationship, understanding your story and the current challenges in your life. In time the process might take us deeper into life experiences that have shaped your perspective and beliefs. My aim is to help you become more self-aware, accept behaviours and recognise patterns and develop the skills needed to overcome difficulties. The number of sessions are determined by what you want to achieve through counselling and can be either a few sessions that will help with a specific situation or a long-term process.

Life changes and crises (loss, separation, professional changes), Emotional Problems, Personal development, Relationship problems, Professional problems (stress, burn out, relationships), Mood disorders, Phobias
