About Vasiliki
Vasiliki Stratikopoulou is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing relationship strain, parenting pressures, grief, trauma, depression, addiction, and major life changes. She works with adults feeling overwhelmed by anger, isolation, or shifts in purpose. Sessions are offered in English and Greek and she practices from Illinois.
Her style is warm and practical. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients untangle difficult feelings and build clearer coping habits.
Background and approach
Conversations focus on small, manageable steps rather than quick fixes. Parents can expect help with communication, boundary setting, and managing the daily stress of caregiving. Vasiliki brings seven years of clinical experience to her work.
That experience includes supporting people through divorce, chronic illness, panic attacks, and struggles around body image or shame. She also assists those dealing with abandonment wounds, impulsivity, or challenging relationship patterns. Therapy with her often blends coaching elements and clinical insight.
She aims to improve everyday functioning - better sleep, fewer panic episodes, calmer responses to conflict, and more reliable routines. Progress is tracked in concrete ways so clients can see what is changing. Practical matters are simple.
Sessions can be scheduled online and delivered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Vasiliki accepts international clients and works with a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Evidence-based approaches and online therapy options
Vasiliki uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on symptoms and daily functioning. One common approach she uses helps people recognize unhelpful thought patterns and replace them with clearer, more balanced thinking to reduce mood symptoms and anxiety. Another approach emphasizes building better coping habits and practical routines to manage panic, chronic stress, and caregiving strain. These methods aim to make small changes that add up to steadier days.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which techniques fit best and adjust the plan as progress unfolds so therapy stays relevant and useful.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video lets people use visual cues and a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can be faster to set up and use less data. Live chat or text-based messaging works well for brief check-ins or when someone prefers typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and stay consistent with appointments.
