Get to Know Me

WHAT I BELIEVE IN

We’re all on this spinning rock in space, searching for meaning in our own way. While no one has all the answers, I believe life’s deepest purpose lies in the connections we make with others and with ourselves. That’s how I see our work together: as a meaningful connection in which we become curious together about your story, your patterns, your struggle, and your strengths and we create a space where you can feel, understand, grow and heal. I believe in the power of compassion and acceptance and most of all I believe that whatever we are facing we do not have to face it alone.

MY BACKROUND

Lena Georgiadi Ms.c.

Health & Social Psychologist
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy & Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

I’m a licensed psychologist and a registered member of the Dutch Association of Psychologists (NIP, reg. no. 249155), and I currently provide online therapy through my private practice, Prism Psychology. My path into psychology began with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the International Faculty of the University of Sheffield and I later completed a Master of Science in Health and Social Psychology at Maastricht University. During that time, I got more and more drawn into cognitive and behavioral science. But as much as I liked my academic journey, what I really wanted was to be close to people and to be able support them directly. ​​

​I’ve been clinically training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) through the Greek Association of Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapies, a 4-year program accredited by the European Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Therapies (EABCT). This training has given me a strong foundation in working with multiple challenges using evidence-based methods. In addition to CBT, I’m deeply rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), having participated in multiple trainings by Dr. Steven Hayes and Dr. Russ Harris and being a proud member of the Association for Contextual Behavioral Science (ACBS). Beyond these, I love diving into books and workshops to always keep growing as a therapist.

In the past, I’ve collaborated with the Institute Prolepsis, where I worked on a helpline for older adults experiencing loneliness — a powerful and humbling experience that taught me the value of simply being present and listening with compassion. I am also a volunteer at @ease in Maastricht, offering a safe and open space for young people to talk freely about their thoughts and concerns.

Currently, I run my own private online practice, Prism Psychology, and collaborate with several therapy platforms, providing support to clients from around the world.

MY APPROACH

Human experiences are complex and multifaceted, and each person’s challenges require a personalized response. That’s why I tailor therapy to fit your unique needs, primarily using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with complementary elements from Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), and Schema Therapy to provide the most effective support for you.​​

My approach is collaborative and flexible. I value creating a therapeutic space grounded in trust, honesty, and respect. In this space, your experiences are met with care, curiosity, and a willingness to explore, even the parts that feel confusing or difficult to name.
Therapy helps us slow down and notice what's happening in our inner world. When we become aware of our thoughts, emotions, and patterns, something important happens. This awareness creates space. Space to choose how we want to respond, space to reconnect with our values, and space to build a kinder relationship with ourselves.

In our work together, we may:

  • Explore how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact and contribute to your struggles.

  • Make sense of patterns that keep looping without resolution.

  • Clarify what truly matters to you and begin aligning your life with those values.

  • Cultivate awareness and build more psychological flexibility.

  • Learn to observe your inner experience with less judgment and more compassion.

  • Find new ways to respond to old wounds.

  • Develop practical tools to manage difficult emotions, build new habits, and respond to challenges in more intentional ways.
