Theodora Savvidou - Child Psychotherapist

“Theodora Savidou has shown utmost support and guided me in a way which I thought that I could only hope for. Countless times I opened myself up to what I perceived as a stranger, by hysterically crying and using the safe space that she never failed to provide. Through the thick and thin, numerous tissues, anecdotes and stream of negative thoughts that I carried with me to every session, she remained a strong role model to an emotionally unstable teenager, and not only believed in me but managed to spark that same inkling of hope every single Thursday evening for a whole year. My mental health journey has been a battle, and without Theodora and the comforts of Harley Therapy, I am truly unsure where I would be. I am eternally grateful for this educational, strengthening and enlightening experience. I was taught to have faith in myself, and welcome all emotions; however good or bad, instead of suppressing them and letting them live inside of me. At a time where I had no friends, Theodora always welcomed me with a warm smile and space to cry without feeling embarrassed or scared. I would definitely recommend Harley Therapy to someone going through similar mental health struggles as through calming tasks of mindfulness, meditation, and self-reflection, I feel like I finally have my mind back. Two years ago I would never have imagined that my mental state would ever get better, and with the help that Harley Therapy and Theodora have given to me, I am finally strong enough to stand up to what I fear most: myself.”
