Συστημική Ψυχοθεραπεύτρια με Πτυχίο (Bachelor) του Τμήματος Ψυχολογίας του Πανεπιστημίου Τριέρ στη Γερμανία και Πτυχίο (Bachelor) με κατεύθυνση ψυχολογίας, του Τμήματος Φιλοσοφίας- Παιδαγωγικού και Ψυχολογίας, του Εθνικού Καποδιστριακού Πανεπιστημίου Αθηνών (ΕΚΠΑ). Κατέχει Μεταπτυχιακό Τίτλο Σπουδών (MS.c) στην «Κλινική Ψυχολογία» του Τμήματος Κοινωνικών Επιστημών και Συμπεριφοράς, του Πανεπιστημίου Erasmus, στο Ρότερνταμ της Ολλανδίας. Επιπλέον ειδικεύεται στη Συστημική - Οικογενειακή Ψυχοθεραπεία στο Ινστιτούτο Εκπαίδευσης και Έρευνας - Λόγω Ψυχής, σύμφωνα με το μοντέλο SANE (System Attachment Narrative Encephalon). Το συγκεκριμένο μοντέλο είναι ένα εμπλουτισμένο μοντέλο συστημικής ψυχοθεραπείας που ενσωματώνει στη θεραπευτική πρακτική στοιχεία από τη θεωρία του συναισθηματικού δεσμού, την αφηγηματική προσέγγιση και τα ευρήματα των νευροεπιστημών.

Απέκτησε πρακτική εμπειρία σε Κέντρα Ψυχικής Υγείας του Δήμου Πειραιά και Καισαριανής - Βύρωνα, όπου δούλεψε τόσο με εφήβους και οικογένειες όσο και με ενήλικες που βίωναν άγχος, κατάθλιψη, μειωμένη αυτοεκτίμηση, δυσκολίες στις σχέσεις, δυσκολίες σεξουαλικού προσανατολισμού και ταυτότητας.

Παράλληλα εργάστηκε ως ψυχολόγος στο Κέντρο Ημέρας Υποστήριξης Εργαζομένων Αθηνών, στο οποίο παρείχε ψυχολογική υποστήριξη σε εργαζομένους για ζητήματα όπως : το εργασιακό στρες, επαγγελματική εξουθένωση, κατάθλιψη, ενδυνάμωση και αυτογνωσία.

Έχει παρακολουθήσει πλήθος σεμιναρίων εστιασμένα στην ψυχοπαθολογία, στη συμβουλευτική και την ψυχοθεραπεία με ΛΟΑΤΚΙ+ άτομα και στην ψυχική υγεία ευρύτερα. Στο ιδιωτικό της γραφείο που διατηρεί στον Πειραιά (Φρεαττύδος 46), εργάζεται με ενήλικες, ζευγάρια, εφήβους και οικογένειες.

Πιστεύει ότι η αναζήτηση βοήθειας και ο δρόμος προς την αλλαγή είναι διαδικασίες με δυσκολίες και προκλήσεις, που αποτελούν όμως ένα πρώτο σπουδαίο βήμα προς ένα λυτρωτικό ταξίδι. Ο φόβος είναι ένα εύλογο συναίσθημα στην αρχή της θεραπείας, αλλά με τον κατάλληλο θεραπευτή, μέσα σε ένα ασφαλές πλαίσιο, μπορούν να φωτιστούν όλα τα σκοτεινά σημεία, να κατανοηθούν άγνωστες πλευρές του εαυτού μας και να δοκιμαστούν νέοι τρόποι σκέψης και συμπεριφοράς.
