Welcome to the third episode of The Validation Lounge with Phil Georgiou.Each episode of The Validation Lounge looks at what contributes to self - esteem with different professionals who work with people; counsellors, therapist, mediators and coaches, amongst others.Phil Georgiou grew up in the UK from a mixed culture family and has lived and worked across Europe and the middle east. Initially beginning his working life in recruitment, Phil went on to work in the television industry before later retraining as an integrative Psychotherapist, counselor, consultant and trainer. Phil is now based in Rome, Italy. Phil is fascinated by what makes us tick as human beings, and how this constantly changes throughout our lives. He believes that feeling good is like creating a great recipe. We first have to identify and source the best ‘ingredients’ which cater to our own individual needs. We then carefully work to bring them together in the right amounts at the right time in order to achieve good emotional health and wellbeing. In addition to running a busy therapy practice Phil is the founder and director of two companies, Mondo Equilibrio and mindhamok.com. These offer 24/7 Emotional Support Helplines and Crisis Management consultancy to international students, universities and organizations with operations in Italy, Spain, France, Switzerland and the UK.Mindamok: https://mindhamok.comThis explains Existential Psychotherapy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMJQGQsXd9wFor an explanation of Phenomenology: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5geMLe5tbMThis explains Gestalt Psychotherapy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBl14hIqDwcPsycho analysis: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXpzRTzMsXUEMDR: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37I3sqflU_kThis is an in depth article on Family Systems Therapy: https://www.goodtherapy.org/learn-about-therapy/types/family-systems-therapyMore info on Person Centred Therapy – created by Carl Rogers: https://www.counselling-directory.org.uk/person-centred-therapy.html#whatispersoncentredcounsellingThe book ‘Against Empathy, The Case For Rational Compassion – Paul Bloom’Ego: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ERWBqIJaecYand ego states https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFGZgbta764Marcus Aurelius: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ and Marcus_Aurelius?fbclid=IwAR0d0M86urrgjGTBmdF9NBdlpSjftan53DFpWOELbg8zMiQxoP7HcjZqs50Attachment theory: https://www.verywellmind.com/what-is-attachment-theory-2795337I also make reference to the excellent book on trauma ‘The Body Keeps The Score’ by Bessel Van der Kalk.
