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.

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).
