Στο ιδιωτικό γραφείο του αναλαμβάνει κυρίως ενήλικες για ατομική συστημική ψυχοθεραπεία, καθώς και γονείς για συμβουλευτική γονέων.

Η συστημική προσέγγιση βλέπει τον άνθρωπο μέσα στο πλαίσιο των σχέσεων και των συνθηκών στις οποίες ζει. Μέσα από τη θεραπευτική διαδικασία, δίνεται η δυνατότητα στο άτομο να εκφράσει όσα το απασχολούν, να κατανοήσει καλύτερα τον εαυτό του και τις σχέσεις του και να αναζητήσει νέους τρόπους διαχείρισης των δυσκολιών που αντιμετωπίζει.

Ο ειδικός έχει αποκτήσει εμπειρία μέσα από τη συμμετοχή του σε ατομικές, ζευγαρικές και οικογενειακές συνεδρίες, καθώς και μέσα από πρακτική και εθελοντική εργασία σε διαφορετικά πλαίσια ψυχικής υγείας. Παράλληλα, έχει συμμετάσχει σε ψυχοεκπαιδευτικές δράσεις σε σχολικό πλαίσιο και έχει έρθει σε επαφή με παιδιά, εφήβους και ενήλικες.

Στη θεραπευτική σχέση δίνει ιδιαίτερη σημασία στην ενεργητική ακρόαση, την ενσυναίσθηση, τη συνεργασία και τη δημιουργία ενός ασφαλούς και αποδοτικού χώρου, όπου ο κάθε άνθρωπος μπορεί να μιλήσει ελεύθερα και χωρίς κριτική.

Στόχος του είναι η δημιουργία μιας ουσιαστικής θεραπευτικής σχέσης, μέσα από την οποία ο θεραπευόμενος θα μπορεί, με τον δικό του ρυθμό, να εξερευνήσει τις ανάγκες, τις δυσκολίες και τις σχέσεις του και να αναζητήσει νέες δυνατότητες και τρόπους αντιμετώπισης.
