Dimitra Karkania
Welcome to my page!
I’m Dimitra, a UKCP and AFT-registered Systemic Psychotherapist with a background in Psychology, and clinical experience within the NHS, including CAMHS, inpatient, and community settings, alongside private practice.
I offer therapy in English and Greek, both online and in person, working with individuals, couples, children, and families.
Seeking therapy can feel like a big step. You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to begin. My aim is to offer a space that feels safe, thoughtful, and non-judgmental, a space where we can slow things down and begin to make sense of what you’re experiencing together.
My approach is systemic and relational. I understand emotional difficulties within the context of relationships, family histories, and the wider systems we are part of. I draw on a range of evidence-based therapeutic models and integrate them carefully to suit your unique needs. Therapy with me is collaborative and paced according to what feels manageable for you.
I have experience supporting people with:
Anxiety and panic
Depression and low mood
Eating disorders and difficulties with food
Self-harm
Relationship and couple difficulties
Family conflict and parenting challenges
Identity questions and life transitions
Neurodevelopmental differences
My background in the arts also informs my work, bringing creativity and curiosity into our conversations and helping us explore patterns and possibilities for change in a nuanced way.
Whether you are coming on your own, as a couple, or as a family, I am committed to working alongside you with care and respect, supporting meaningful and lasting change.
If you’re unsure about booking a first session, we can have an initial phone conversation free of charge. This gives you the opportunity to ask questions about the type of support I offer and to get a sense of whether working together feels like the right fit.
Fees:
£80 per 50-minute individual session
£120 per 50-minute couples and family session
