Achieve self - compassion with
Dr. Maria Stavrinaki

Hi! Let me introduce myself. I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist specialising in health-related behaviour change and addictions. I hold a PhD in Clinical Psychology from the University of Cyprus, a Post Graduate Diploma in Psychotherapy: CBT; from the University of Roehampton, an MSc in Health Psychology from the University of Surrey and a bachelor’s degree from University College London. More personally, I am a mother to two high spirited, affectionate, young boys and wife to a dashing, determined, South African! Over the years, I have regularly been asked what has drawn me to the field of psychology and have related this back to my love of science, comradeship, and self-exploration. I feel very passionate about my line of work and find great value in updating my practices in accordance with both emerging evidence as well as my personal life experiences. I use respectful, compassionate, self-empowerment tools based on simple, evidence-based interventions. Further, I take pride in offering a range of fairly-priced treatment options aimed at increasing accessibility to psychological services.
