This page lists Female Family Psychotherapists in Athens. 3 in all.
That is 3 of the 5 psychotherapists listed in Athens.
These are practitioners who identify as female on their profile 1. We ask every therapist that question, and they may decline to answer. We do not check the answer, and nothing here is ranked.
This list answers an explicit request for a woman. While many people prefer this, we found no research on whether it changes how the therapy goes.
A client and a practitioner always differ; what matters is what that means to you and how you work with it 2. You can filter the same list by the languages a practitioner works in.
What family therapy works with, and what it will not do
Family therapy works with the relationships between people rather than one person's symptoms. It is talking therapy aimed at improving relationships among family members 3. It can involve any combination of them.
Families come with conflict, separation, a child's behaviour, illness or bereavement. Some come with the strain of caring for someone. A therapist may also meet members on their own 4.
It is not a report for a court or a school. The therapist does not decide who is at fault. Ask a practitioner who they would want in the room.
What psychotherapy works on, and how long it usually runs
Everyone on this page describes their work as psychotherapy. A psychotherapist works through talking with you about your thoughts, feelings and behaviours 5.
Psychotherapy usually runs longer than counselling and aims for clinical change. It works on patterns that repeat rather than on one current problem.
A psychotherapist trains in psychological treatment rather than in medicine. What that training covers, and which approach a practitioner uses, differ between practitioners. Ask which approach a psychotherapist trained in, and how long they usually work.
What this page filters on
These are the only filters: the practitioner's stated Female identity, the specialism recorded as Family and the professional title psychotherapist.
