Julia Skouta

Welcome to Awareness Path! I’m Julia, an integrative counsellor offering online therapy for adults during challenging times in their lives. As a bilingual therapist, I recognise that the nuances or our emotions are often most naturally expressed in our native language. I offer sessions in both English and Greek, ensuring you have the freedom to communicate in the way that feels most authentic to you. I’m really glad you’ve found your way here.

My Journey to Counselling

Before becoming a therapist, my years in the fast-paced, demanding corporate world gave me firsthand insight into how deeply stress, low self-esteem, and relationship difficulties can impact well-being.

When I started my own family, everything shifted. Parenthood prompted me to pause, reflect, and re-evaluate my priorities. In that space, my desire to support others grew stronger than ever. I realised my path was leading away from the corporate sector and toward providing the essential emotional support I saw so many people needing.

That realisation led me back to university, where I completed a BPS-accredited Graduate Diploma in Psychology, followed by a Professional Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling.

Over the last 12 years I have supported adults experiencing mental health difficulties and learning disabilities, as well as children with special needs. 

I am an accredited member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society and work in accordance with their Code of Ethics and Professional Practice.

As part of my professional development, I regularly engage in additional training so I can continue growing, broaden my knowledge, and stay up to date with the latest developments in counselling.
