Find a Therapist in Greece

Sharing your depressive thoughts and feelings may be scary and overwhelming, so I am very happy that you have taken the brave first step of reaching out for help.  Seeking support can give you the chance to move past such feelings as hopelessness, helplessness, loneliness, guilt and/or inadequacy which all may be a part of feeling depressed.  I have worked alongside many other individuals who had felt low, stuck and unmotivated to support them in feeling better about themselves and make meaningful changes in their lives.  You can start to feel better too by working with me to identify and understand the thoughts, feelings and experiences which contribute to your depression and low self-esteem.  Together, we can work on figuring out what would make your life more meaningful according to your needs and values. I can also help you learn and acquire the necessary skills to make the changes that you want at your own pace. 

Welcome to 7 Cups online counseling! I would like to congratulate you for taking this decision to reach out and ask for assistance and support at this time in your life.  Let me introduce myself. After many years of working, first as a Registered Nurse and for the last 30 years as a Mental Health Counselor, I have come to view individuals holistically. I have a strong belief in the capabilities each individual has to find solutions and ways to cope with whatever life issues they may bring to therapy.  As a therapist, I see my role as giving you, as a client, opportunities to explore earlier life experiences and decisions (conscious and unconscious) that may be negatively affecting your present life circumstances. I foster a respectful, encouraging, safe and non-judgmental atmosphere where you can begin to learn and practice new skills and healthier ways of being, that eventually, you can incorporate into your daily life and carry them with you long after our work together.

I'm a trained developmental therapist with a specialization in anxiety and depression ranging from children to adulthood. I have a Master in Applied Developmental Psychology and have worked thus far in school settings and private practice. In addition to working with children and teens, I also work with parents taking a supportive role in addressing their concerns. I am also trained with a multicultural background, I have worked creatively with a combination of psychodynamic, person centered, and schema therapy to help children and adolescents who struggle with different forms of anxiety. I have also worked in a private clinic counseling individuals with Asperger's and gender identity issues. As I've been volunteering on 7 cups for the past year and have had such a wonderful experience supporting individuals in crisis world wide, I decided to sign up and continue my role as a therapist. In addition, I support multicultural individuals like myself who struggle with identity and cultural issues. As a mom of three, I also understand the challenges of parenthood and raising healthy and well adjusted children in this day and age. I am open to providing affordable therapy to those in need, so reach out to me if you need support!
