A Little About Me
I was born on the island of Kos, where I lived until the age of eight, and later grew up in Rhodes. At 18, I moved to Brighton, England, where I lived for five years, studied Psychology, and later completed a Master’s degree in International Marketing.
Growing up between two cultures, Greek and Russian, and having lived in different places and environments, change has been a recurring part of my own life. These experiences sparked a particular interest in how our environment, relationships, culture and different experiences shape the way we understand ourselves and others.
Although I followed a different academic path for a while, I soon realised that what truly interested me was psychotherapy: exploration, understanding and human connection. I therefore returned to the field of psychology and continued my training with postgraduate studies in Systemic Psychotherapy.
Perhaps this is why I see change not as a linear journey, but as a process shaped by our relationships, experiences and the different contexts in which we live. This is also the perspective I bring to the therapeutic process today.

My therapeutic approach
My therapeutic approach is primarily guided by the principles of systemic therapy, which focus on relationships, communication, and the systems we are part of. At the same time, I draw on tools and techniques from different therapeutic approaches, depending on your individual needs and the goals we set together.
