Έλαβε Μεταπτυχιακό Δίπλωμα στη Διοίκηση ανθρώπινου Δυναμικού από το Οικονομικό Πανεπιστήμιο Αθηνών και έχει εργαστεί σε εταιρεία στον τομέα της ανάπτυξης και δέσμευσης των εργαζομένων. Εξειδικεύεται στην ομαδική αναλυτική ψυχοθεραπεία. Η εκπαίδευσή της πραγματοποιείται Ελληνικό Δίκτυο Ομαδικών Αναλυτών (μέλος του EGATIN, European Group Analytic Training Network). Έχει αποκτήσει κλινική εμπειρία στην Ψυχιατρική Κλινική του Νοσοκομείου Ρεθύμνου και στον Ξενώνα Βραχείας Παραμονής της ίδιας Κλινικής. Έχει εργαστεί ως ψυχολόγος σε διάφορα Κέντρα Ειδικών Θεραπειών παρέχοντας υπηρεσίες συμβουλευτικής και ψυχοθεραπείας σε παιδιά, εφήβους και ενήλικες. Η εμπειρία της στο συντονισμό αναλυτικής ψυχοθεραπευτικής ομάδας έχει αποκτηθεί στο πλαίσιο της συνεργασίας της ως συν-συντονίστρια σε ομάδα εμπειρίας του Εισαγωγικού Σεμιναρίου στην Ομαδική Αναλυτική Ψυχοθεραπεία του ΕΔΟΑ (Ελληνικό Δίκτυο Ομαδικών Αναλυτών) αλλά και ως συν-συντονίστρια σε ομάδα δραματοθεραπείας αναλυτικού τύπου με την δραματοθεραπεύτρια Αποστολάκη Νατάσσα.

Σακελλαρόπουλος. Πιστεύει ότι η ομαδική ψυχοθεραπεία αποτελεί πολύ αξιόπιστη μέθοδο και βασικοί τρόποι με τους οποίους βοηθά είναι η ενστάλλαξη ελπίδας στο άτομο, ο αλτρουισμός, και αίσθηση ότι πολλές από τις δυσκολίες και τα προβλήματα είναι κοινά σε όλους τους ανθρώπους. Ταυτόχρονα, οι σχέσεις με τα άλλα μέλη της ομάδας παρέχουν στο ίδιο το άτομο χρήσιμες πληροφορίες για το πώς σχετίζεται σε όλες τις σημαντικές σχέσεις της ζωής του. Για εκείνη η ψυχοθεραπεία είναι ένα ταξίδι αυτογνωσίας που έχει ως στόχο τον επαναπροσδιορισμό του ατόμου μέσα στη ζωή του και τη θεραπευτική αλλαγή. Τέλος, θεωρεί σημαντικό η σχέση θεραπευτή-θεραπευόμενου να διέπεται από άνευ όρων αποδοχή, σεβασμό, εμπιστοσύνη, αυθεντικότητα και ενσυναίσθηση.
