His professional trajectory is characterized by a strong focus on the stability of the therapeutic framework, placing particular emphasis on building a relationship of trust and respect, individualized approaches to the person, and gradual empowerment and self-awareness. His experience in both organized institutions and private practice in Greece and abroad, as well as managing a variety of requests with consistency and responsibility, has endowed him with therapeutic flexibility and the ability to deeply understand individual experiences, allowing him to focus not only on symptoms but also on the meaning they acquire within each person's personal history. He believes that change does not arise from “ready-made solutions” but from the gradual understanding and deep processing of subjective experience.

His consistent goal is to create a space where individuals can speak honestly without the anxiety of judgment, gain deeper self-understanding, and develop more functional ways to manage their difficulties.
