Συνεργάζεται μαζί τους τα τελευταία χρόνια ως διοργανωτής σεμιναρίων και συνεδριών της ECF στο Παρίσι και της Παγκόσμιας Εταιρείας Ψυχανάλυσης (Association Mondiale de Psychanalyse). Στόχος της είναι η ανάδειξη της ενικότητας του συμπτώματος και της μοναδικότητας (της επιθυμίας) του κάθε υποκειμένου. Αντιμετωπίζει περιστατικά κατάθλιψης, τραυματικές εμπειρίες, κρίσεις πανικού και φοβίες, πένθος, αγχώδεις διαταραχές, προβλήματα διαπροσωπικών σχέσεων, θεραπεία ζεύγους, συμβουλευτική γονέων και παιδιών, παιδικό αυτισμό, αντιμετώπιση εθισμών και εξαρτήσεων. Συμμετέχει τακτικά σε συνέδρια στο εξωτερικό και μελέτες της έχουν δημοσιευτεί σε ξενόγλωσσα περιοδικά πάνω στο «ανησυχητικά ανοίκειο» συναίσθημα του S.Freud, την γλωσσική δομή του ασυνειδήτου, την διωκτική εμβέλεια του βλέμματος, την παραληρηματική δομή της γλώσσας, τις παραισθήσεις, τις ψυχοσωματικές διαταραχές, τη σχέση μελαγχολίας και μετουσίωσης, καθώς και την σχέση λογοτεχνίας και τρέλας. Οι συνεδρίες με παιδιά και εφήβους περιλαμβάνουν αρχικά προκαταρκτικές συνεδρίες με τους γονείς για να διευκρινιστούν οι δυσκολίες που αντιμετωπίζει το παιδί τους. Η υποστήριξη και η καθοδήγηση των γονιών είναι στόχος των συνεδριών.
