About me
My name is Alexandra Symeonidou, and I am a psychologist offering psychological support to the international community worldwide. Having been both a psychologist and a therapeutic client, I understand that getting to know someone requires time, effort, and interaction. Nevertheless, I will try to use this space to introduce who I am and how I work briefly.
My journey in psychology was not straightforward, and this is why I know, for sure, that I genuinely enjoy what I am doing. My past experiences have set a solid ground that acquainted me with different cultures, contexts, therapeutic tools, clinical cases, and populations. However, I believe in the continuous pursuit of knowledge, and I regularly engage in professional, evidence-based trainings and supervision of my practice.
My mission is to make mental health services accessible to anyone in need. I believe psychotherapy is the safest and calmest place for anyone to discover their “branches” of life, the moments they carry with them, and the past and present challenges they face. I understand that this discovery journey can be challenging. However, I promise you I will try to make it worth it♡
If that sounds like something you would be interested in, do not hesitate to contact me!

Approach
Treatment Approaches
CBT: Cognitive behavioral therapyRecommended for those looking for practical support and accountability to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
Schema therapyRecommended for those who want to break out of negative patterns or "schemas" that they developed early in life and keep repeating.
My studies were focused on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Gender, Sexuality, and Relationship Diversity Affirmative Therapy. Still, I individualize each treatment depending on each client’s needs incorporating elements from schema, acceptance, and commitment, and dialectical behavioral therapy. I prioritize creating a safe and warm connection with the client to smoothly transition to exploring complex thoughts, emotions, and memories. I always clarify that therapy is not a magic pill, and the therapist is not a magician. On the contrary, therapy needs time and effort by both sides to work ♡
