About Aspasia Venieri
CBT Mental Health Counsellor
Psychological Trauma Therapy Specialist SEP
Aspasia Venieri began her academic journey with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, specialising in Marketing Management, from DEREE – The American College of Greece. She then earned a postgraduate degree in Occupational Psychology from the University of London – Birkbeck, and later on a Masters in Psychology from the Hellenic American University, specialising in Clinical Mental Health Counselling with a Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) approach.
Before entering the mental health field, Aspasia enjoyed a successful 20-year career as a marketing executive in Greek and multinational companies. Her extensive corporate experience gave her a deep understanding of human behaviour, workplace stress and emotional resilience — insights that enrich her therapeutic approach.
Her professional development focused on psychological trauma therapy through modern, neuroscience-based methods. She completed a one-year training programme at TACT HELLAS and a three-year professional programme at Dr Peter Levine's European Academy of Somatic Experiencing®, qualifying as a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner.
She has also developed substantial expertise in supporting people with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder). Lifelong learning is a core value in her therapeutic journey, continually strengthening her knowledge and skills.
Clinical Experience
She has provided individual and group therapy to older adults with dementia and Alzheimer's disease at the AKTIOS Elderly Care Centre and Alzheimer's Unit in Agia Paraskevi. She has also facilitated psychoeducational student groups at the Hellenic American College Counselling Centre, focusing on healthy relationships and recognising abusive patterns.
Through ROOTS WELLNESS CENTER, she provided bilingual online psychotherapy to adults throughout Greece.
