Κατέχει τις κρίσιμες γνώσεις διαφορετικών πτυχών αυτού του κλάδου και πολλαπλές δεξιότητες και ιδιότητες που είναι απαραίτητες για το ρόλο του Ψυχολόγου. Επιπλέον, έχει εργαστεί σε διάφορα μεμονωμένα προγράμματα Ψυχολογίας μέσω του Πανεπιστήμιου του Leiden, αλλά και εθελοντικά με ανθρώπους με χαμηλό εισόδημα (κυρίως Έλληνες του εξωτερικού), οι οποίοι αναζητούσαν βοήθεια και ψυχολογική υποστήριξη. Αυτές οι εμπειρίες του επέτρεψαν να αναπτύξει σημαντικές δεξιότητες θεραπείας, έρευνας και παρατήρησης. Από το 2022 διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στο Χαλάνδρι, και από το 2023 συνεργάζεται με το ψυχοθεραπευτικό κέντρο ΒΗΜΑ ΚΟΙΝΟ. Επιτέλεσε ως επιστημονικά υπεύθυνος και ως ψυχολόγος στον Σύλλογο Καρκινοπαθών ΚΕΦΙ από το 2022 μέχρι και το καλοκαίρι του 2023. Περαιτέρω, έχει εργαστεί ως Ψυχολόγος στο Disofo Caring Center (εταιρία φροντίδας ανθρώπων με προβλήματα υγείας) από το έτος 2018 μέχρι το έτος 2020 και στο Ygia Caring Center έως και το τέλος του έτους 2021. Εκεί, ήταν υπεύθυνος για την παρακολούθηση και την ψυχική υποστήριξη των πελατών και του προσωπικού, διεξάγοντας την αξιολόγηση της ψυχικής κατάστασης τους κάθε έξι μήνες. Κατά τη διάρκεια της κλινικής πρακτικής άσκησης του, εργάστηκε ως βοηθός σε ιδιωτικό ιατρείο, όπου συμμετείχε στη δημιουργία προσαρμοσμένων σχεδίων θεραπείας, διεξήγαγε ψυχολογικές αξιολογήσεις, επικοινωνούσε με ασθενείς για να τους εκπαιδεύσει πάνω σε διαφορετικές ψυχικές διαταραχές και επιλογές θεραπείας, παρακολούθησε συνεδρίες ψυχοθεραπείας, άσκησε ψυχοθεραπεία υπό εποπτεία και απέκτησε μεγάλη εμπειρία στην θεραπεία ασθενών. Έχει αντιμετωπίσει με επιτυχία περιπτώσεις αγχώδους διαταραχών, κρίσεων πανικού, του ευρέος φάσματος της καταθλιπτικής διαταραχής, εθισμών κ.α. Ακόμη, έχει ασχοληθεί με συμβουλευτική για αυτοβελτίωση και εν καιρώ κρίσιμων περιόδων. Η βασική εκπαίδευση και μέθοδος θεραπείας που χρησιμοποιεί είναι Γνωσιακή - Συμπεριφοριστική θεραπεία, όμως στην πορεία της σταδιοδρομίας του ήρθε σε επαφή κι απέκτησε εμπειρίες και σε άλλες μεθόδους, όπως Σχηματική θεραπεία και EMDR. Θεωρεί πως πολλές διαφορετικές μέθοδοι μπορούν να είναι αποτελεσματικές, ανάλογα την εκάστοτε κατάσταση και προσωπικότητα, και για αυτό το λόγο, συνεχίζει και διευρύνει την εκπαίδευση του στην επιστήμη της Ψυχολογίας. Είχε την τύχη να συνεργασθεί με ανθρώπους από όλο τον κόσμο, αποκτώντας μία πιο σφαιρική θεώρηση για την ψυχική υγεία. Τέλος, υπάρχει δυνατότητα διεξαγωγής των συνεδριών στη αγγλική γλώσσα.
