Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

I felt safe in the space that Ali welcomed me into and felt listened to. I am greatful for the techniques and tools I have been given to help me get back on my feet. Ali has the most warmest energy about her and it felt easy to just talk about what I needed to. Anna has also been great to communicate with and very easy going.

Maria is a warm and compassionate individual, and in my view excels at what she does. 

She has a calm and welcoming manner, able to take the reins and drive the conversation when needed but also allowing space with true active listening when I was sharing. 

She has given me tools that I can use for life and enabled me to understand my worth and what self love really looks like. It’s not just about being warm and fuzzy but also providing myself with tough love when needed and making a real commitment to myself, even if that’s uncomfortable or hard. She has taught me to understand my emotions aren’t a burden to myself or others, and that they are indicators and should be welcomed in as guests into the home of my mind, and then gently excused when it’s time for them to go home or allowing them to sleep over but only as long as they are helpful and not hurtful. 

I’m sorry grateful for the support and will continue to use my Wednesday morning “Maria time” to continue my own practise and sharpen the valuable tools she has provided me. 

Thank you Maria 💜

Bipolar Disorder

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Chronic Pain

Living with several long-term health conditions left me feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and stuck in unhelpful patterns. My health worries had become so intense that I was constantly monitoring symptoms, searching for reassurance, and fearing the worst.

Working with Dr. Vasiliou has made a huge difference. His expertise in chronic health conditions, behaviour change, anxiety, and depression was clear from the start. Rather than focusing on everything at once, he helped me make small, realistic changes that gradually improved my wellbeing and gave me confidence that I could take control of my health again.

Using a combination of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and ACT, he helped me overcome many of my fears about illness and learn how to respond differently to health-related anxiety. Instead of being driven by worry and fear, I learned practical ways to focus on what I can control and live according to my values.

What I appreciated most was his compassionate, non-judgmental approach and his ability to tailor treatment to my specific situation. The changes may have started small, but they have had a lasting impact on my physical and emotional wellbeing.

Dr. Vasiliou is exceptionally knowledgeable, supportive, and skilled. I would highly recommend him to anyone struggling with multiple health conditions, anxiety, depression, or health anxiety.
