Parent Counseling
Interdisciplinary Treatment Center Papadimos Lydia - Thessaloniki


Parent counseling aims to guide and support parents in the education of their children when they face emotional, mental, learning and physical difficulties. Through the counseling process, parents gain the necessary resources to understand the unique challenges they must face as their children grow.

  • When we notice that our family has difficulty functioning smoothly in their daily life. Tensions between members are common, significantly disrupting our communication and relationship. In this case, the journey of parenthood is experienced as a painful experience, full of disappointments and guilt.
  • When we struggle to recognize our children's needs and often wonder what they need from us. When some behaviors "don't make sense" to them, but appear again and again creating cracks in our relationship.
  • When we notice that some members of our family have strong emotional reactions, behaviors that escape and pressure us, making our connection difficult.
  • When on the journey of parenthood, somewhere we have lost touch with ourselves. We do not understand ourselves, our own personal needs, and there is a great internal attribution of responsibility, an "I am to blame for everything", which weighs us down and suffocates us. When we have stopped taking care of us, loving us, accepting us and focus only on performance. When we feel vulnerable, exhausted and without mental reserves.
  • When the relationship with our partner goes through a crisis after the birth of the children and there seems to be difficulty in the transition from one phase of life (couple) to another (parents).
  • When there is an obvious difference in the parenting style, values ​​and practices of the two parents preventing communication, connection and relationship between us, a gap that extends to the child.
  • When we feel that responsibilities and performance oppress and bog us down, reducing our sense of order and effectiveness as parents.
  • When our child attends a psychological support program and we want to contribute as much as possible to the development and progress of our relationship, while enhancing the benefits of the program.
  • When we face an intense difficulty that disrupts our relationships and everyday life, e.g. developmental issues, health problems, bereavement, divorce, adolescence, etc.
