Η θεραπευτική της προσέγγιση βασίζεται στη Γνωστική και Συμπεριφορική Θεραπεία (CBT), με έμφαση στη συνεργασία και στην κατανόηση του τρόπου με τον οποίο οι σκέψεις, τα συναισθήματα και οι συμπεριφορές συνδέονται με όσα μας δυσκολεύουν. Στόχος της θεραπείας είναι όχι μόνο η ανακούφιση από τη δυσκολία, αλλά και η καλύτερη κατανόηση του εαυτού και των μοτίβων που επαναλαμβάνονται στη ζωή μας.

Για την ίδια, σημαντικό κομμάτι της θεραπείας είναι η σχέση που χτίζεται μέσα σε αυτή. Επιδιώκει να δημιουργεί έναν ασφαλή χώρο, χωρίς κριτική, όπου ο κάθε άνθρωπος μπορεί να μιλήσει ανοιχτά, με τον δικό του ρυθμό. Η θεραπεία διαμορφώνεται από κοινού, με βάση τις ανάγκες και τους στόχους του κάθε ανθρώπου.
