First Impressions

Feel like your mind
is playing tricks on you?

If you're reading these lines, you're probably looking for answers. Let's talk openly.

Imagine you're wearing a pair of glasses, but the lenses are covered in mud. Because of those stains, everything you see around you appears dark, threatening, or hopeless.

The problem is not who you are, but how your brain has learned to filter reality.

There is no "flaw" inside you. The world isn't truly that dark.

The goal of our therapy is not to analyse the past for years. The goal is to learn to recognise when your "glasses" are dirty and to acquire the practical tools to clean them by yourself, whenever daily life challenges arise.

The Method

Psychotherapy,
reimagined.

A structured, human process with a beginning, middle and end.

Active Approach

I don't sit in silence. We are a team. I guide you and provide specific, practical tools for your daily life.

Focus on the Present

The past matters, but we focus on the "here and now". What's blocking you today and how we'll solve it tomorrow.

Practical Exercises

Change requires action. You'll have practical homework to build, step by step, new neural pathways.

Goal: Autonomy

Therapy has a clear structure and specific goals. The aim is to equip you with practical tools so you can navigate life's challenges with autonomy.

Scientific Basis

An Evidence-Based
Approach.

As an MSc holder, my work is 100% based on evidence-based clinical research. We don't rely on assumptions, but on how the brain actually works.

  • Cognitive Restructuring

    We identify automatic negative thoughts and cognitive traps, training the mind to respond with realism and clarity.

  • The 3rd Wave (ACT & Mindfulness)

    Instead of fighting negative thoughts, we learn how to accept them, removing their power to control our actions.

  • Behavioral Change & Gradual Exposure

    We gradually face what holds you back. We break avoidance patterns through safe, actionable steps in real life.

The Journey

Your Therapeutic
Journey.

No surprises. No awkwardness. You know our path from the beginning.

Step 01

Introduction (15')

A brief introductory call. You briefly explain what you're facing, we answer your questions, and examine whether my way of working is well-suited to what you need.

Step 02

Assessment (1-2 sessions)

In a safe and friendly environment, we understand together what is happening. We set clear, measurable goals and create a personal treatment plan.

Step 03

Targeted Work (Initial Cycle)

The core of our work. In the initial sessions we agree on what needs to change, work weekly with practical tools, and regularly review our progress together.

Step 04 · Autonomy

Completion & Maintenance

You leave with a "personal manual" of strategies and tools. Sessions gradually space out, helping you maintain your steady progress and function with independence in everyday life.

After years of thinking "that's just how I am", within a few months I realized that chronic anxiety and overthinking do not define who I am. Yiannis' systematic approach changed my life.

I expected a therapy where I would just talk and stare into the void. I found a process of meaningful change. Yiannis gives you tools, not just empty words.

Burnout & low mood · 4 months

The most valuable part? Leaving, I knew how to handle on my own what used to trouble me. I don't need therapy anymore and that was the goal all along.

Yiannis Dovletoglou

MSc Psychologist · Integrative & CBT Therapist

I am a Psychologist with an honors degree (BSc Psychology, 1st Class Honors) from UCLan (Top of Class Award) and holding a Master's degree MSc Integrative Counselling & Psychotherapy from the University of Derby (UK).

Understanding human nature is a continuous journey for me. My academic path started with Social Anthropology (Univ. of Thessaly), while I am also certified in Therapeutic Skills (Lv. 2) from the distinguished Metanoia Institute in London. In addition, I hold active memberships in major international psychological bodies including EACLIPT, SEPI, and BACP.

In my 3 years of clinical experience, I've seen that psychotherapy shouldn't be endless theoretical discussions. My primary goal is to build an empathetic human alliance and give you the practical tools to regain control of your life.

FAQ

Common
Questions (FAQ).

How long will therapy take?
CBT is a goal-oriented, structured approach. We work on specific goals and systematically evaluate progress. In the initial sessions we agree on what we want to change, and along the way we assess together whether the plan needs adjustment or whether the primary goals have been achieved, without therapy dragging on unnecessarily.
What are the fees for a session?
The initial online consultation is offered at 12€, and regular online sessions are 18€. In-person sessions are offered at 35€. We will discuss everything with complete transparency during our first contact. A legal receipt is always issued.
Online or in-person?
Both are equally effective. There is clear scientific evidence for this. You choose what works best for you. Online sessions take place on an encrypted Zoom platform (GDPR compliant).
What about confidentiality?
Sessions are confidential and fully protected by professional secrecy (under the Psychologists' Code of Ethics and GDPR), with legally mandated exceptions that are explained thoroughly prior to starting.
Will you give me medication?
No, as a Psychologist, I do not prescribe medication. That is the role of a Psychiatrist. If necessary, we collaborate perfectly with specialized partners for a combined, holistic approach.
What if we don't "click"?
That's exactly why the introductory contact and initial consultation exist. We explore together whether my way of working responds to what you need and whether your concerns fall within my scope of practice. If we feel a different approach or specialized care would serve you better, I will responsibly recommend an appropriate referral.
First Step

Take back control
of your life.

The therapeutic relationship is the most important thing. That's why the first initial consultation costs just 12€ (in-person in Athens 35€), so we can see if we're a good fit, with zero commitment.

Subsequent online therapy sessions remain transparent and accessible at 18€ / session.
