About Vasiliki
Vasiliki Stratikopoulou is an Illinois licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with seven years of clinical experience. She works with people facing relationship strain, anger, depression, grief, addiction concerns, and parenting stress. Sessions are conducted in English and Greek, and she accepts international clients.
Her work focuses on practical steps people can use day to day. She helps clients identify triggers and learn clearer ways to respond when frustration rises. She supports people coping with life changes, midlife shifts, or painful events like trauma and loss.
Vasiliki uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients practice new habits. She often concentrates on communication problems, impulsivity, and patterns that keep resentment or avoidance alive. The therapeutic process includes talking through recent events, noticing repetitive reactions, and trying small behavioral changes between sessions.
She also addresses caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, body image and issues around abandonment and forgiveness. When anger shows up alongside panic, mood difficulties, or relationship breakdowns, she helps people untangle what is driving their reactions and set clearer boundaries where needed.
Clients can expect straightforward language and concrete strategies rather than vague theory. She asks about goals early and uses short exercises to build coping skills. If you want to start, follow the site's booking steps to match and schedule a first session.
Evidence-based approaches for anger and relationships
Vasiliki draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage anger and improve relationships. She often uses behavioral strategies that focus on identifying triggers, practicing alternative responses, and building short daily habits to reduce impulsive reactions. These approaches aim to change what people do in the moment so they can respond differently under stress.She also works with skills for communication and emotional regulation. This involves teaching concrete methods to name feelings, set clearer boundaries, and practice conversations that reduce escalation. These tools are useful for frustration at work, repeated resentment at home, or when someone wants to change how they react after a painful event.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will review your goals, try techniques in session, and adjust methods based on what helps most. You and the therapist decide together which practices fit your needs and daily life.
