Είναι κάτοχος  Μεταπτυχιακού διπλώματος (MSc) ειδίκευσης στην Κλινική Ψυχικής Υγείας, από το  Ηellenic American University, New Hampshire – USA, με εξειδίκευση στη Γνωστική Συμπεριφορική Θεραπεία (CBT). Το Μεταπτυχιακό Πρόγραμμα στην Ψυχολογία (MSPsy) παρείχε ολοκληρωμένη εκπαίδευση και κατάρτιση στην τεκμηριωμένη (evidence-based) γνωσιακή συμπεριφοριστική προσέγγιση στη συμβουλευτική και την ψυχοθεραπεία. Είναι εκπαιδευμένη στη Θεραπεία Τραύματος με τη μέθοδο EMDR από την TAC HELLAS.

 Στο πλαίσιο της μετεκπαίδευσης της στην Κλινική Ψυχικής Υγείας  πραγματοποίησε κλινική πρακτική άσκηση και συμβουλευτική, υπό εποπτεία στη Ψυχιατρική Κλινική του 414 Στρατιωτικού Νοσοκομείου Ειδικών Νοσημάτων, από τον Ιούλιο 2021 έως τον Ιούλιο 2023.

Επίσης, κατά τη διάρκεια των βασικών σπουδών της στην Ψυχολογία, πραγματοποίησε πρακτική άσκηση στο Διακλαδικό Κέντρο Ψυχικής Υγείας,  από το 2018 έως 2019.

Επιπλέον, ειδικεύεται μέσω τετραετούς προγράμματος εκπαίδευσης στην Συστημική ψυχοθεραπεία, στο Εργαστήριο Διερεύνησης Ανθρωπίνων Σχέσεων, από τον Σεπτέμβριο 2024. 

Έχει συμμετάσχει σε αρκετά επιστημονικά συνέδρια, συγκεκριμένα,  στο 63th Annual European Branch of the American Counseling Association (EB-ACA) Conference, που διεξήχθη στις 21-22 Οκτωβρίου 2022, βραβεύτηκε για την έρευνα που έχει διεξάγει στα πλαίσια του μεταπτυχιακού της, με τίτλο  "Ψυχική Ανθεκτικότητα ως Προστατευτικός Παράγοντας στις Ψυχιατρικές Διαταραχές κατά τη διάρκεια της στρατιωτικής θητείας" .

Επίσης, συμμετείχε ως ομιλήτρια για την Τεχνητή Νοημοσύνη στο χώρο της Ψυχικής Υγείας - τίτλος "Global Perspectives on Ethical Artificial Intelligence in Mental Health Care:Navigating the Ethical and Social Challenges", τον Οκτώβριο 2024, στο 65th Annual European Branch of the American Counseling Association (EB-ACA) Conference, στη Νυρεμβέργη Γερμανία.

Λόγω της εκπαίδευσής της στη συστημική ψυχοθεραπεία νιώθει ότι βρίσκεται σε προνομιακή θέση που δεν είναι υποχρεωμένη να αναφέρεται σε εκείνους που έρχονται για βοήθεια, ούτε ως ασθενείς ούτε ως πελάτες. Αποσυνδέεται η σχέση, τόσο από την παθολογία όσο και από την οικονομική συναλλαγή, καλώντας τους θεραπευόμενους.

Στη θεραπεία συνοδεύουμε τον θεραπευόμενο, να πει το αφήγημά του, μέχρι να βρει τη λύση στα προβλήματα που τον απασχολούν. Την λύση την έχει μέσα του, απλά δεν το γνωρίζει.

Ο θεραπευόμενος δεν πάει στη θεραπεία για συμμόρφωση ή για να τον αλλάξουν. Πάει στη θεραπεία για να τον ακούσουν, προκειμένου να μπορεί να καταλάβει ο ίδιος τι συμβαίνει και εφόσον το  επιθυμεί να αλλάξει μόνος του.

 Ένας «φροντισμένος» εαυτός, μέσω της θεραπείας, θα φροντίσει να κάνει  υγιείς σχέσεις, σε προσωπικό, ερωτικό, επαγγελματικό και κοινωνικό επίπεδο.
