Naoum Liotas

As I am offering online therapy from home due to the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) situation, the availability is flexible and we can find a time to work together.

Sometimes, being overwhelmed by anxiety, fear, anger or grief may stand in the way of moving forward in life.

What I do

I support adults by helping them to explore and address issues they face either face-to-face or online. My speciality is Gestalt psychotherapy which is a holistic approach. Mind, body, spirit and emotions are all important and need to be seen and appreciated so we can move forward.

What is the situation with COVID-19 (Coronavirus)?

Due to the governmental restrictions and my social responsibility of not further transmitting the virus, I am still seeing and accepting clients but only online. Once the restrictions are withdrawn, I would be happy to see new clients that have signed up for online therapy, face-to-face in the 9 Great Russell Street office.

How long does the counselling or therapeutic process take?

I usually work with an open-ended contract and we discuss how things will proceed or when it is time to stop and make plans towards an ending. Short-term counselling and coaching are also available in some cases depending on the issue and the requirements of the client.

Mode of working

My interventions through dialogue, creative experimentation and presence will help you raise your awareness and connect with the issues you are facing in a meaningful way. We will be working through self-exploration that will ultimately bring changes to how you perceive the world and your life. Therapy in this way is all about making contact and cultivating presence and I will support you by helping you become a more whole version of yourself by also attending to parts of yourself that were neglected or cast aside.

Languages

I offer sessions in Greek as well.

What to expect

In the first session, we will get to know each other and we will lay the foundation for our work by explaining how therapy works and discussing issues and expectations.

The first few sessions are about tasting the waters. As we move on, you will start noticing small shifts in how you perceive the world. These small shifts will help you make the changes you want. Therapy is both challenging and highly rewarding.

I am offering supervision in Central London for qualified coaches, counsellors or psychotherapists that would like to use my skills for their professional development and client work.

The main modality I use is Gestalt psychotherapy and coaching but I have also trained in creative therapies so I can also support integrative and creative art psychotherapists in their work.

Please note that I don't work with couples and children and I am not experienced in those areas - thus I am not the most competent person to supervise therapists who work with them. We can have an initial online chat to see if my skills are compatible for your practice.

Our supervision contract will be for face to face sessions at 9 Great Russell Street, WC1B 3NH or for Zoom calls.

In the first session we will discuss your needs, how you like to receive feedback and how we will be working together. My practice is relational and dialogical so we will discuss our contract and how we can make this relationship work.
