A few words about me

I am a psychodynamic psychotherapist with specialist training in working with both individuals and couples. Originally from Athens, I moved to London at 17 to study Psychology at University College London (UCL), beginning a path that has woven together academic inquiry and clinical practice. I completed Master’s degrees in Psychoanalysis and Cognitive Neuroscience, followed by a PhD in Social Neuroscience, deepening my interest in the relationship between mind, brain, and body. My curiosity about human relationships led me to train as a couple and individual psychodynamic psychotherapist at Tavistock Relationships (TR), a leading centre for relationship therapy.

In my practice, I provide a safe, confidential, and creative therapeutic space for honest self-exploration, where people can feel heard, understood, and supported in exploring whatever brings them to therapy. I approach each person and relationship with empathy, openness, and sensitivity. I intentionally keep my practice small, allowing me to work attentively and thoughtfully with each person I see and to offer a calm, reflective environment in which meaningful therapeutic work can unfold. I warmly welcome people from all backgrounds and I work fluently in English and Greek.

Alongside my clinical work, I teach and conduct research at UCL and the Anna Freud Centre, where I lead the MSc in Early Child Development and Clinical Applications. I greatly value the ongoing dialogue between these areas of work, and how they continue to inform and enrich one another. This integrative perspective is also reflected in my work as co-editor and author of Perspectives on Early Parenthood and Infancy: A Psychoanalytic, Neuroscientific, Developmental and Cultural Dialogue (Routledge, 2026).
