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.

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.
