Η Χασιώτη Ζέτα είναι Ψυχολόγος και διατηρεί ιδιωτικό γραφείο στο Χαλάνδρι. Σπούδασε και εργάστηκε σε διαφορετικούς τομείς για ένα μεγάλο διάστημα της ζωής της, κυρίως στο εξωτερικό. Ενώ οι αρχικές της σπουδές ήταν στο τμήμα Ευρωπαϊκών σπουδών, με ειδίκευση στα ανθρώπινα δικαιώματα και το Διεθνές Δίκαιο, αργότερα συνέχισε τις σπουδές της στον τομέα της ψυχολογίας στο Πανεπιστήμιο του East London. Είναι κάτοχος μεταπτυχιακού τίτλου στην Εφαρμοσμένη Θετική Ψυχολογία (MSc in Applied Positive Psychology), το πρώτο τέτοιο πρόγραμμα στην Ευρώπη από το ίδιο πανεπιστήμιο. Επιπλέον έχει εκπαιδευτεί στη Συνθετική Συμβουλευτική και Ψυχοθεραπεία (PGDip in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy). Θεωρεί την διαρκή επιμόρφωση εξέλιξη του εαυτού της και της επαγγελματική της σταδιοδρομίας. Έχει ολοκληρώσει διάφορα σεμινάρια και ημερίδες επιτυχώς, όπως, επίσης, το ετήσιο μετεκπαιδευτικό σεμινάριο Παναγιώτης Ουλής στην Κλινική Ψυχοπαθολογία και τα δυναμικά ομάδας στην Ελληνική Εταιρεία Ψυχαναλυτικής Ψυχοθεραπείας Ομάδας, όπου και συνεχίζει. Παράλληλα, έχει πραγματοποιήσει την πρακτική της στο γραφείο συμβουλευτικής κολλεγίου για φοιτητές, ανάπηρους, μειονότητες, έχει βοηθήσει στο συντονισμό ομάδων ανάπτυξης με κυρίως θέμα την επικοινωνία, έχει πραγματοποιήσει ενημερωτικές ομιλίες για γονείς πάνω στον σχολικό εκφοβισμό με καταξιωμένους ψυχολόγους εφήβων και παρέχει μέχρι σήμερα τις υπηρεσίες της στο γηροκομείο το σπίτι της χριστιανικής αγάπης. Στο παρελθόν έχει εργαστεί και στον Παγκόσμιο Οργανισμό Υγείας και πλέον συνεργάζεται με το Ινστιτούτο Ψυχικής Υγείας & Προσωπικής Ανάπτυξης ''Γαληνός''. Αναλαμβάνει ένα ευρύ φάσμα θεμάτων ψυχικής υγείας, όπως κατάθλιψη, κρίσεις πανικού, μετραταυματικό στρες, άγχος, θέματα σχέσεων, συμπεριφοράς και επικοινωνίας, απώλεια και πένθος, μοναξιά και διατροφικές διαταραχές. Οι υπηρεσίες της αφορούν την ατομική ψυχοθεραπεία η οποία συνδυάζει στοιχεία από διαφορετικές ψυχοθεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις ακολουθώντας ένα πιο ολιστικό μοντέλο ψυχοθεραπευτικής παρέμβασης. Παρόλα αυτά η ψυχοδυναμική προσέγγιση παραμένει στο επίκεντρο της δουλειάς της. Πιστεύει ότι όλοι οι άνθρωποι έχουν αρκετές ικανότητες για να πορευθούν στην ζωή τους κάποιοι όμως έχουν αποθαρρυνθεί/τραυματιστεί και χρειάζονται τον χώρο και χρόνο για να αντιμετωπίσουν τις δυσκολίες τους. Με κύριο γνώμονα το κλίμα εμπιστοσύνης, αποδοχής και ενδιαφέροντος, δίνει στον θεραπευόμενο την δυνατότητα να “γνωρίσει” τον εαυτό του σ' ένα μεγαλύτερο βάθος, να κατανοήσει τους φόβους του, τις ανησυχίες του και τις λανθασμένες πεποιθήσεις του έτσι ώστε να ανακουφιστεί από τα ψυχολογικά συμπτώματα, βελτιώνοντας την ποιότητα ζωής του. Κατόπιν, ο θεραπευόμενος, με την βοήθεια της θεραπείας, αξιοποιεί τις δυνατότητες του για να υλοποιήσει τους στόχους που θέτει για τον εαυτό του φτάνοντας έτσι σε μια ψυχολογική άνθηση. Η θεραπεία πραγματοποιείται σε δυο γλώσσες (ελληνικά-αγγλικά).
