Dr Eleni Chourdaki

Child Psychotherapist

“Experienced Child and Adolescent Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist (Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust, Association of Child Psychotherapists, UK) working with young people (0-25) and their families in Athens, Greece.”

About Me

This experienced Child and Adolescent Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist supports young people (0-25) and their families in Athens. They create a thoughtful space to explore complex feelings. Sessions help children and adolescents understand underlying behaviours, building resilience. Parents gain insights too, supporting their family. This approach suits those seeking a deeper understanding of emotional challenges. It offers a consistent environment to navigate growth together.

Approach

Sessions unfold as a steady, exploratory container tuned to each young person’s pace, where curiosity and safety guide how we move forward. In my consulting room in Athens and during secure online sessions in English or Greek, I pay close attention to play, speech and behaviour, following what seems most alive for the child or adolescent. Parents are invited into focused feedback and reflection sessions so patterns at home can shift alongside the child’s internal changes, especially when trauma or conduct difficulties are present. This way of working suits families seeking thoughtful, sustained help to make relationships feel manageable.
