About
From an early age, I sensed two worlds coexisting
within me.
I was shaped by methodical thinking and evolved through sensitivity.
On one side: logic, research, precision; on the other: intuition, observation, and a subtle awareness
of the unseen.
My mother, a Professor of Physiology at the Medical School of National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, instilled in me method, perseverance, and the understanding that the human being is a remarkable system of intelligent mechanisms with capabilities far beyond what we typically perceive. My father, a Dipl. Electrical Engineer, taught me to look for logic and coherence in everything I encounter, often remarking that “one plus one may equal two”, guiding me to question even the seemingly self-evident.
Yet, I sensed something more — that beneath the visible framework of human existence flows an energy — an intention, an inner quality — that no microscope or equation has yet been able to capture.
This dual lens — analytical thinking and sensitivity — has shaped my life at every stage.
Academically, I pursued the world of analytical thought:
I studied Economics at the London School of Economics, completed postgraduate studies at the University of Cambridge, and went on to work at UBS in London, Boston Consulting Group, the Ministry of Economy, Vector Partners as a financial advisor, and later as CFO of UNISON Group of Companies.
Yet – at the same time – I existed as something more.
A “child who felt,” who saw beneath the surface, who sensed the intentions behind words.
A sensitivity I once perceived as a weakness became my greatest strength.
Synchronicities, teachers, and expanding levels of consciousness gradually guided me onto a path where everything converged:
psychology, meditation, energy work, inner philosophy, and therapeutic awareness.
Along this path, I trained systematically in counseling psychology (Diploma in Counseling Psychology — Athens Synthesis Center), deepened my work in Individual Psychology (Alfred Adler), and completed a multi-year series of trainings in energy-based healing modalities, including Reiki and bioenergetic therapy.
While I initially encountered these as distinct approaches, they gradually formed a unified framework for understanding the human being — one in which mind, soul, and energy operate as an integrated whole.
Today, I integrate my two worlds — analytical thinking and the dynamics of energy — to support individuals in returning to inner balance.
As a Bioenergetic Therapist and Mental Health Counselor, I guide those seeking truth, stability, health, empowerment, and growth.
My purpose is one:
to help people live their own purpose — not through instruction, but through the unveiling of what already exists within them.
A truth I hold with awe, responsibility, and a deep sense of calling.
