About

I am a Licensed Psychologist (license number 582) with a specialization in the field of Clinical Psychology.

I am a member of the Cyprus Psychological Association and the British Psychological Association, BPS.

My focus group(s) are adults and families. In my practice I help people facing various conditions such as: anxiety disorders, mood disorders, Trauma and Stressor-related Disorders, psychotic disorders, eating disorders, psychosomatic symptoms, interpersonal difficulties and difficulties in terms of adjusting in one’s living situation.

Throughout my education and work, I have developed an expertise in the treatment of chronic conditions, especially those that present with chronic pain; whether those are musculoskeletal , neurological or psychological.

In my practice I am an avid proponent of technology enhanced therapy. Whether that is a hybrid format of online and face-to-face therapy or online therapy, the medium can help us understand better the inner and private life of the patient(s) whilst also allowing them to have a full and meaningful therapeutic experience from the safety of their own space.

Individual Therapy

Individual Therapy is the most commonly sought form of therapy.

Family Therapy

Family therapy is at the heart of the systemic approach. Family is something much larger than the sum of its members. It is a complex and dynamic entity that has its own rules, rituals and goals – some goals are shared and some are conflicting. Different forms of communication and interactions within the family produce meaning, experiences, behaviors, symptoms and often conflicts. More
Group Psychotherapy

The therapeutic dynamics and strengths of a group are the foundation upon which group therapy is built. Focusing upon a central communal theme, the aim of the group is to facilitate an experience which enhances self-awareness, coping skills, resilience and emotion management. Groups help us to discover roles and patterns of communication within relationships, allowing us to reflect in a safe space with our group and find support. More
