Advancing Whole-Person Healing Through Sleep, Sex, Psychology, Trauma Therapy, and Relationships
Meet Anna Papra, BSc, MSc, psychologist, psychotherapist, and Greece’s first adult and child sleep consultant.
For more than a decade, Anna has been helping individuals, couples, parents, and families improve their well-being through an integrative approach that recognizes the profound connection between sleep, emotional health, relationships, attachment, and trauma.
As one of the pioneers of professional sleep consulting in Greece, she introduced evidence-informed sleep support while continuing to expand her expertise in psychology, psychotherapy, psychosexual therapy, somatic trauma work, and relationship counseling.
Today, her practice reflects a deeply holistic philosophy, supporting not only better sleep, but healthier relationships and emotional well-being across every stage of life.
Committed to lifelong learning, Anna has completed multiple advanced professional training programs through the International Parenting & Health Institute (IPHI), including Maternity & Child Sleep Consulting Training, Advanced Training for Sleep Consultants, Integrative Adult Sleep Coach Training, the IPHI Business Workshop, and Nurturing Sleep with Ann Caird. She is currently continuing her professional development through IPHI’s Holistic Children & Teen Sleep Coach Program, further expanding her expertise in supporting children, adolescents, and families through a holistic, family-centered approach.

Pioneering Sleep Education in Greece
In 2015, Anna became Greece’s first adult and child sleep consultant, helping introduce professional sleep consulting to families throughout the country.

- “Nurturing Sleep” with Ann Caird
These programs further strengthened her ability to support both children and adults using an integrative, family-centered approach.
Integrating Sleep, Trauma, Relationships & Mental Health

Rather than viewing sleep as an isolated challenge, she considers the broader factors that influence restorative sleep, including emotional health, attachment patterns, trauma, couple relationships, parenting dynamics, and nervous system regulation.
Today, she supports:
- Adults
- Children
- Couples
- Parents
- Families
through an approach that recognizes the interconnectedness of sleep, psychology, and overall well-being.
