Are you troubled by any of the following?

"I am struggling with excessive anxiety," "I'm battling depression," "I'm troubled by relationship issues," "I have panic attacks," "I'm trying to cope with grief," "I have difficulty sleeping and don't know what to do," or simply (though 'simply' is never really simple!) "I feel awful and I don't know why."

All the problems we encounter in life, especially when they seem insurmountable, are essentially opportunities for our personal growth and development.

Integrative Psychotherapy focuses on the present, for the present. It has the immediacy and effectiveness of a lifejacket when you’re being overwhelmed by the waves.

As a psychotherapist, I actively engage in identifying the everyday challenges each person faces, aiming to transform them from obstacles into opportunities. We explore the past only insofar as it relates to the present, and we apply techniques that are practical and relevant.

Throughout the therapeutic process, and according to each individual’s desires, we can delve deeper into the structure of the character and the ways it may hinder one's ability to grow freely.

The authentic relationship we build, based on sincere interest and your own desire, is inherently therapeutic.

My name is Iason Venetosanopoulos. I was born in Athens in 1984. Psychotherapy and painting are the lifestyle I have chosen. It goes beyond the hours I spend in front of a canvas or sitting in the therapist's chair. I began my studies in Counseling and later in Synthetic Psychotherapy in 2015. My first studies were in Painting at the School of Fine and Applied Arts at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. I completed my studies in 2009 and have been painting and exhibiting ever since. During those years, I regularly attended Philosophy courses at the Department of Political Science with Professor Gerasimos Vokos, which was my first substantial encounter with the concepts of Philosophy and my introduction to Freud, psychoanalytic theory, and the world of psychotherapy. I have lived for a year in Indonesia, made two trips to China, and spent a few months in Madrid. These travels played a significant role in my personal exploration. Since 2010, I have been living permanently in Athens. I completed my studies as a Mental Health Counselor in 2017 and finished my training as a Synthetic Psychotherapist in 2024. Psychotherapy and painting are two inseparable parts of my life. I love them both, and one nourishes the other.

How will I leave behind that which I know? 

How will I bear the new?

How?

You can bring them up whenever you wish.  You can hide them whenever you wish.

As long as you know where they are.

Where did we lose it,

where did we have it?

How can we find it again?

Personal Sessions

Therapy begins with the relationship that is created between the client and the psychotherapist. Through Integrative Psychotherapy, I work in the here-and-now while also delving into the issues the client brings. This way, a holistic approach is achieved, allowing the client, first of all, to find relief from the immediate concerns troubling them and then to explore deeper, to the extent they wish.

Online Sessions

The absence of physical presence gives a new dimension to the concept of the therapeutic space. The client, together with the psychotherapist, learns to create a therapeutic space beyond the physical presence of objects and people. Thus, an approach is born that is perfectly aligned with the particularities of our time, bringing new elements to the therapeutic process.

Couples Counselling

The ability to strengthen a relationship is one of the greatest challenges but also one of the most beautiful gifts a person can offer themselves. It is worthwhile for a couple to seek help in order to cope with the hardships of time and to reinvent the concepts of connection and intimacy. Through couples therapy, a new encounter emerges each time, under new terms, opening new pathways and allowing each partner to reconnect with themselves, as well as with the other.

The First Contact

Like every first meeting, the first session hosts not only the therapist and the client but also the anxiety of the initial encounter. Often, discomfort or awkwardness may also be present, and these are welcome in our first meeting as well.

"Will he suit me?" "Will I like him?" "Will he understand me?" "Will I seem likable, interesting to him?" "Is he the right therapist for my needs?"

The goal of the first meeting is to see if we are two people who can connect through our differences and build a therapeutic relationship. If not, that’s perfectly okay too.

Where can I sit?

I think I will sit! 

Standing up.
