A successful ‘Psychology for all’ talk on Panic Attacks

A successful ‘Psychology for all’ talk on ‘Panic Attacks: The Gestalt perspective’ took place with great success drawing a full house at the Auditorium of our main campus in Thessaloniki.

The guest speaker, Ms Elisavet Parthenioti, Gestalt Foundation graduate and Counselling Trainer shed light on panic attacks, an anxiety symptom that is widespread today. Ms Parthenioti discussed the Gestalt perspective on panic attacks and explained that although panic attacks are a personal experience they can be a social problem with political and cultural roots. Through this perspective the treatment does not only focus on ‘personal empowerment and support’, but also to contemporary relational frame. 

The audience found the presentation particularly informative. This was the first Psychology for all event for 2017. The series features a range of psychology topics to be covered by future events throughout the spring semester. Stay tuned!
