I’m a certified Psychologist and Cognitive Behavioural Therapist, gaining my MSc, DipPsych and B.A.(Psychology) from University College London, The Open University and The University of Queensland, respectively. I am a licenced psychologist in the Hellenic Republic since 2014 with registration number 14796/234 issued from the prefecture of Western Greece.
My career as a Psychologist spanned 24 years and offered me the opportunity to interact with people of all walks of life – both in community and hospital settings, as well as, in statutory and non-statutory settings – whilst applying highly specialised skills in mental health assessment and treatment. Working at the Section of Family Therapy at the Kings College Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, was one of the most incredible learning experiences for me. Equally invaluable was my engagement at the Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children, as medical secretary to Professor and Child & Adolescent Consultant Psychiatrist Danya Glaser.
Currently, I work as an editor for my small publication start-up business – SOPHROSYNA Εκδόσεις. I author children’s books with content based on developmental psychology as well as authoring books for mood and anxiety disorders during the perinatal period.
