Lia Sotiriou
I am a licensed psychotherapist in the Netherlands, specialized in psychotherapy for expats. I studied Psychology at Panteion University in Greece and obtained a Master of Science in Psychology from Leiden University. I also completed a postgraduate training in psychoanalytic psychotherapy at KU Leuven (Belgium).
I work from a psychoanalytic perspective, focusing on both current symptoms and underlying emotional patterns. In addition, I am trained in MBT, Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy (DIT), EMDR trauma therapy, and person-centered psychotherapy. This allows me to adapt the therapeutic process to your personal needs.
I have extensive experience working with adult expats in Dutch mental health care settings, addressing themes such as cultural adjustment, identity, loss, trauma, relational difficulties, and emotional distress related to living abroad. My approach is careful, engaged, and culturally sensitive.
