Couples and Individual Therapy

With Eleni Kyrpigikidis

Eleni Kidis of Yogahari Healing is an Emotional Focused Couples and Individual therapist (EFT). Emotional Focused Therapy is a humanistic, evidence-based approach to psychotherapy, drawing primarily from attachment theory to facilitate the creation of secure, vibrant connection with self and others. Rooted in the science of emotions and attachment, EFT helps clients identify and transform the negative processing and interaction patterns that create distress.

 

Eleni is also a certified Family Constellation Facilitator and has also trained in Radical Exposure Tapping®, Level I (Deactivating the Buttons) with Laurie MacKinnon. Therapy is a process that takes time and commitment. Disentangling our psycho-emotional wounds, brings up discomfort and distress. Eleni compassionately guides people through this discomfort, and reassures that healing happens when we are willing to go deep within ourselves. It takes a courageous heart to enter therapy. 

Eleni supports people heal from trauma, including childhood abuse and neglect, fractured family bonds as well as adult sexual assault. She also works with people who are experiencing depression, anxiety, low self-esteem and confidence.leni also supports couples reduce conflict, increase their ability to hold their own and their partners' emotions, strengthen emotional security in each other, (especially after infidelity) and help them reignite sexual intimacy.

    I offer in-person and online individual therapy in Thornbury, for women and men who are ready to engage in depth-oriented, long-term therapeutic work. She specialises in trauma-informed, attachment-based therapy. Many of my clients are highly reflective and motivated, yet continue to struggle with early experiences of:

    ‍ ‍

    • Complex and developmental trauma

    • Parental separation and family fractures

    • Inter-generational trauma

    • Sexual abuse

    • Physical abuse

    • Emotional neglect or relational instability

    • Sexual assault

    • Anxiety

    • Depression

    • Emotional dysregulation

    • Relationship and intimacy difficulties

    • A persistent sense of emptiness

    ‍ ‍

    Together, we work to understand how early attachment trauma continues to shape:‍ ‍

    • Emotional responses and nervous system regulation

    • Relationship patterns, intimacy, safety and boundaries

    • Identity, self-worth, and internal stability

  • Our intimate relationship can act as the greatest mirror for our hidden insecurities, emotional wounding, and deepest longings. Many couples that I work with are outwardly capable, yet internally disorientated or exhausted. They are often living out dynamics that are stuck in repetitive and destructive patterns of relating. They usually have the same fight but they use different words. I support couples unpack these dynamics, for greater insight and clarity instead of feeling like they are drowning in the chaos and overwhelm.

    Couples who choose to work with me have a genuine desire to understand what is happening between them, instead of just wanting to learn how to better manage ‘communication and conflict’. With this kind of orientation, couples begin to understand:

    ‍ ‍

    • Their ‘cycle of conflict’

    • Their defensive or avoidant patterns of relating and the root cause of these

    • How to work through conversations without it leading to a fight

    • Their own and their partner’s ‘raw spots and vulnerabilities’

    • Their own needs and how they need to be held in a safe way

    • Their partner’s needs and how to hold them in a safe way

    • That relationships require ongoing nurturing
