Marianna Antonakaki
Ambassador: Greece
I am a psychologist with expertise in clinical settings & research, creator of the awarded model NowLetsPlay®™, and a lifelong explorer of how humans grow & behave in various contexts. For me, ambassadorship is an act of service to applied research: to carry ideas with care, build bridges between science, creativity, and a more conscious, humane future. My professional work stands at the intersection of clinical psychology, research, and applied innovation. With a background in psychology, psychodynamic psychotherapy, human-centered therapeutic play, trauma-informed approaches, and top notch Mindset Corporate training, my core focus is understanding how human experience is structured, represented, and transformed. I integrate Mental Space Psychology as a foundational framework for exploring how identity, relationships, memory, and psychopathology are spatially organized in the mind, both in assessment and intervention. This research-driven perspective informs my clinical practice with children, adolescents, and adults, while also extending into coaching, leadership development, and organizational contexts. Through NowLetsPlay®™, MindsetMaps™, and The School of Mindset™, I translate complex psychological models into practical tools for mindset mapping, change facilitation, and strategic development. My work bridges science and application, combining evidence-based psychological thinking with experiential methods to support personal growth, therapeutic change, and sustainable performance in both human and business systems.
