TherapyTherapy is a process of moving deeper---that's easier said than done. We often want to stay at the surface of life, avoiding what might lurk beneath. At times, however, and again and again throughout life, what lurks beneath the surface touches us, even pulls us under. Therapy is a process of learning about the nature of ourselves, and how to turn toward the often-avoided "stuff" that lurks beneath, with renewed capacity of integration and sense of wholeness. Through the process of therapy, life can feel paradoxically freer, and easier, by moving deeper still in relationship with Self.

About Silvia
Silvia Eleftheriou is a not-so-traditional-therapist for not-so-traditional-humans.
She spent years developing an understanding of mental health through traditional sciences: brain-based interactions, hormones, and genetic-predispositions, and in the end, became an alternative and eclectic, herb-smudging, shadow-loving, Jungian.
Maybe it was the frustration of confronting endless cycles of masking symptoms, without daring to delve deeper; or maybe it was the urging of a hopeful spark of wanting a community that feels whole, healthy, and supportive. Whatever the reason, she has committed herself to creating a culture of living authentically and integrally with the unknown.
She primarily roots herself in depth psychology. She integrates elements of Indigenous Wisdom Traditions, person-centered, mindful, arts- and somatic- (body-) based approaches, with a touch of cognitive-behavioural influence.
Most importantly, she endeavors to work collaboratively with each client to tailor a treatment and therapy approach that feels "right" for the unique relationship between therapist and client.
