Tom Maniatis has over 20 years of experience in concurrent addiction and mental health treatment delivery, a Senior Addictions Psychotherapist at Promises Healthcare in Singapore, specializing in the targeted treatment of complex behavioral and substance dependencies. Recognized for his clinical expertise in navigating modern psychological challenges, he provides evidence-based interventions for gaming and internet addiction, substance abuse, deep-rooted trauma, and ADHD.
Recovery requires more than simply treating symptoms; it demands addressing the underlying distress. Tom brings a fiercely non-judgmental, person-centered approach to his practice, understanding that addiction and behavioral struggles are often intertwined with burnout, unresolved trauma, or strained family dynamics. By integrating proven therapeutic frameworks, including trauma-informed care and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), he creates a psychologically safe environment where clients can confront core issues without shame.
Working extensively with struggling adolescents, high-stress professionals, and distressed family units, Tom focuses on practical, long-term outcomes. He helps clients dismantle destructive cycles, develop resilient emotional regulation strategies, and rebuild fractured relationships.
Consulting fluently in both English and Greek, Tom partners with his clients to provide the sustainable, real-world tools they need to reclaim agency over their mental health and move forward with clarity and purpose.
