Nikolaos D. Alexandrakos

Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist

“Psychoanalytic psychotherapy for individuals and couples.”

About Me

I offer psychoanalytic psychotherapy for individuals and couples. Here, you can explore the underlying patterns influencing your life and relationships. This approach helps you understand how past experiences shape your present, fostering deeper self-awareness. Clients seeking lasting insight and a more secure emotional foundation find this work transformative. We collaborate to uncover connections, empowering you towards meaningful change.

Approach

I guide attentive, curiosity-led sessions that trace recurring feelings and relational patterns back to their roots, helping you notice how they play out now. In my Athens practice and online in English or Greek, sessions are paced to suit your rhythm—sometimes reflective silence, sometimes linking a memory to a present interaction—and I invite gentle experiments between meetings to test new responses. This steady, collaborative focus helps you build clearer emotional boundaries and more secure connections, a way of working many adults seeking deeper understanding find helpful.
