Στην κλινική της πρακτική δίνει ιδιαίτερη σημασία στην κατανόηση των βαθύτερων συναισθηματικών και σχεσιακών μοτίβων, αλλά και στον τρόπο με τον οποίο οι προηγούμενες εμπειρίες επηρεάζουν το παρόν, τις σχέσεις και την εικόνα που διαμορφώνουμε για τον εαυτό μας.

Βασικός άξονας της θεραπευτικής της δουλειάς είναι η δημιουργία μιας σχέσης ασφάλειας, αποδοχής και εμπιστοσύνης. Στόχος της θεραπευτικής διαδικασίας είναι ο άνθρωπος να μπορέσει να κατανοήσει βαθύτερα τον εαυτό του και τον τρόπο με τον οποίο σχετίζεται, να επεξεργαστεί τις δυσκολίες που τον απασχολούν και σταδιακά να αναπτύξει νέους τρόπους κατανόησης και αντιμετώπισής τους.
