Η εμπειρία αυτή συνέβαλε ουσιαστικά στην ανάπτυξη της κλινικής της σκέψης και στην εξοικείωσή της με τη θεραπευτική διαδικασία σε ατομικό και ομαδικό επίπεδο.

Στο πλαίσιο της κοινωνικής και επαγγελματικής της προσφοράς, έχει προσφέρει εθελοντική εργασία ως ψυχολόγος στο Κέντρο Ολιστικής Φροντίδας «ΝΕΜΕΣΙΣ» – Cancer Nemesis.

Τέλος, η συνεχής εκπαίδευση αποτελεί για την ίδια σημαντικό μέρος της επαγγελματικής της πορείας, καθώς θεωρεί ότι η εξέλιξη ενός επαγγελματία ψυχικής υγείας απαιτεί διαρκή αναζήτηση γνώσης, προσωπική καλλιέργεια και επαφή με σύγχρονες θεραπευτικές προσεγγίσεις.
