About Me

A little about me…

I’m Maya Georg, a psychotherapist based between Athens and Kefalonia, Greece, working with clients online.

I like to approach therapy as a collaborative process with my role being a steady, attentive presence. I do not direct or prescribe, but try to help create the conditions in which you can understand yourself more clearly and make changes that are genuinely your own.

I hold Master’s degrees in Psychoanalytic Studies and Counseling Psychology, and my clinical approach is grounded in psychodynamic and psychoanalytic thinking. This means I focus on how past experiences, relational patterns, and unconscious processes shape present-day struggles. I also draw on Transference Focused Psychotherapy, a method that uses the relationship between therapist and client as a lens for understanding recurring emotional and relational patterns. I am a member of the International Society of Transference Focused Psychotherapy (ISTFP) and continue advanced training in this modality.

I’m also an experienced yoga practitioner and teacher, and I offer Yoga Analysis as a complementary practice for clients interested in working with the body alongside the mind.

Note: Psychotherapy is not currently a licensed profession in Greece as licensing here applies specifically to the title of ‘Psychologist.’ I’m sharing my degrees, training, and professional affiliations here so you can evaluate my background directly.
