About Athina
She aims to create a space where clients can talk about guilt, shame, isolation, and questions of purpose. Sessions emphasize clear communication skills and practical coping strategies. Athina uses a mix of evidence-informed approaches to match each person's needs rather than one fixed method.
Her work often includes helping people who face panic attacks, phobias, social anxiety, or workplace stress. She also supports those navigating divorce, separation, and complicated relationship patterns such as codependency. The focus is on building resilience and restoring confidence in everyday life.
Athina blends reflective listening with tools to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. She encourages mindfulness practices and values-based action to help clients move toward meaningful goals. Sessions are collaborative and paced to what the client can manage.
Located in Massachusetts, she draws on her long experience to help clients clarify priorities and make steady progress. People can expect straightforward talk, practical skills, and a steady professional presence while they work through difficult transitions.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Athina often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters most and take small steps toward those values. ACT is useful when life changes make choices feel overwhelming and when someone wants practical ways to move forward.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors. CBT can help with panic attacks, social anxiety, and everyday stress by teaching concrete skills for managing symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work and will be decided together. She will ask about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then tailor strategies to the client's needs in a collaborative way.
