Elena Georgiou

Counsellor & Person Centered Therapist

Pronouns: She/Her

I hold an Honor's Degree in Psychology and I have post graduate education in person centered psychotherapy, as well as a long experience in private practice.

I am here to help you find your own way to solve anything that bothers you or keeps you back from living a mentally healthy and fulfilled life. As a therapist I use methods and techniques from various approaches.

My personal touch lies on the belief that all people are unique in their own ways. Creating an unconditional space where you and every human being will feel safe, respected and fully accepted, is essential for me. I offer therapy within a non - judgmental environment where you can freely express yourself and walk through.


Practice and research has shown that the client/therapist relationship is very important and impacts the therapy result. Having that in mind, I aim to bring honesty and truth in the therapeutic procedure and to work with you closely for the best possible result.

As a person-centered oriented therapist I work with adult individuals and couples and the therapy can be long-term or short-term. My approach is helpful if you wish to gain more self-confidence, a stronger sense of identity or authenticity, greater success in establishing interpersonal relationships, and more trust in your own decisions.

I offer help to deal with anxiety and as well as grief or other difficult circumstances, such as trauma, breakups, professional anxiety, or family stressors, relationship difficulties and self esteem.

What is a Counsellor?

A Counsellor is a trained professional who provides a safe, confidential space for individuals to discuss their thoughts and feelings. They actively listen, offer empathy and guidance, and create a supportive environment. Counsellors specialise in various areas, prioritise the client's well-being, and promote mental and emotional health. They undergo education and training, focusing on holistic well-being and client-centered approaches.

What is person centred therapy?

Person-Centred Therapy, also known as Client-Centred or Rogerian Therapy, is a humanistic approach founded by Carl Rogers. It believes in people's innate potential for growth and self-discovery. Key principles include unconditional positive regard, empathy, and authenticity. Therapy is client-focused, emphasising active listening and self-actualisation. It avoids labels and dives into emotions and personal exploration. Non-directive, it encourages a holistic view of individuals. This approach helps with various issues, fostering self-acceptance and self-esteem. It's known for its safe and supportive environment for healing and personal growth.
