Eleni Kalogirou, Developmental Psychologist

Empower children to understand their psychological development

Working with children aged 2–12 of typical development, their parents, and parent–child dyads.

I am Eleni, a developmental psychologist fascinated by child development and skill acquisition. I offer an individualised, evidence-based approach to help each child understand their own cognitive, social, and emotional processes — and develop effective, sustainable strategies adapted to their environment.

I also support parents in understanding what their child is capable of at each developmental period and how to best accompany them. I can offer guidance during transitions or when behavioural changes seem out of character.

I am currently completing a PhD in Psychology at the University of Geneva, and have trained in parent coaching and play-based approaches. My approach is scientific and personalised: I search the literature for the best tools for the skills we want to build, and adapt them to each child’s specific needs.
