Koula Charalambous-Metzner, M.Ed.

I work with individuals and couples exploring issues such as depression, anxiety, loneliness, isolation, self-esteem, stress, relationship issues, loss and grief, personal growth etc. I  also have experience with people who have been diagnosed  with cancer, working with them through their diagnosis, treatment, as well as helping them find the emotional support they need. I have also worked with young adults exploring career paths and how to succeed in university (study skills, time management etc.). My approach to therapy is eclectic, as each individual is unique, and I try and understand somebody’s wants and needs and work towards them in an empathetic and safe environment. I believe in empowering people by helping them recognize and utilize their personal strengths and understand their limitations and grow into happy, healthy individuals.

Having worked and lived in the UK, the Netherlands, USA and currently Cyprus, I have been an expat myself and am very aware of the intricacies involved in moving to a new country, both, on a personal and professional level.
