Dr Maria Georgiou Shippi
Chartered Psychologist
“You bring strengths to therapy— our work together will never start from zero. I'll offer you an open space with no boxes to fit into. It will be safe to feel; emotions aren't good or bad. You're whole, never broken, even when struggling. Bearing these in mind, we will explore the many solutions to your concerns.”
About Me
You bring unique strengths to therapy, and my aim is to help you harness them. I offer an open, non-judgmental space where you can feel safe exploring all emotions. We will collaboratively uncover practical solutions to your concerns, always remembering your inherent wholeness. This approach is ideal if you're struggling. We can build on your existing resources, free from any pressure to conform.
Approach
Because you arrive with resources, our work unfolds as an invitation to notice what steadies you and where small shifts feel possible. In Edinburgh, whether face-to-face or online in English or Greek, sessions move at your pace with gentle structure that fits your life. I combine attuned listening with practical skills, brief between-session experiments and concrete routines to reduce overwhelm, manage attention and heal from past harm. This way of working tends to help people navigating change, health challenges or reclaiming control feel more capable.
