I have over 15 years experience working individually and within organizations with a variety of individuals from diverse cultures, class backgrounds, sexual preferences and beliefs and with a range of psychological difficulties. In that time I have developed the ability to offer my clients an atmosphere of safety and mutual respect, helping them to overcome their everyday difficulties and obtain an increased level of satisfaction and control over their lives. I’ve worked with women being affected by domestic violence at Woman’s Trust, and with individuals dealing with a range of different psychological difficulties at MIND in Tower Hamlets, MIND in Harrow and TASHA Foundation, where I offered weekly, one-to-one therapeutic sessions. I have also worked as an Assistant Psychologist at the Children’s Department in two different Mental Health Centres in Athens, diagnosing and assessing emotional and learning difficulties of children and adolescents with the use of psychometric and projective tests.I have been involved in volunteer work for two different NGO schemes. At New Horizon Youth Centre I was responsible for helping the full-time staff Youth Team to deliver a range of services to young homeless people. As a Support Worker with Camden Victim Support, I was responsible for making contact with victims of crime that had been referred to the scheme to offer them support, usually in their own homes, either emotional and/or practical. I believe that my personal and professional development are crucial and indispensable for a professional, thus, in the last fourteen years I have attended a number of training seminars and workshops relating to my profession. Part of that development is also attending personal therapy and supervision.
