Εκεί υποδέχεται ανθρώπους που θέλουν να διαχειριστούν το άγχος, τον θυμό, τη θλίψη ή βρίσκονται σε αδιέξοδο. Ανθρώπους που έχουν δυσκολίες στις σχέσεις τους αλλά και όσους βρίσκονται σε αναζήτηση κατεύθυνσης στην προσωπική ή επαγγελματική τους ζωή. Μέσα από τη Συνθετική προσέγγιση, βοηθά τον κάθε άνθρωπο να κατανοήσει καλύτερα τον εαυτό του, να ενισχύσει την αυτοπεποίθηση, να βελτιώσει την επικοινωνία και να αποκτήσει μια πιο ισορροπημένη και αυθεντική σχέση με τον εαυτό και τους άλλους.

Παράλληλα, στηρίζει εφήβους και ενήλικες στη διαδικασία επαγγελματικού προσανατολισμού και σχεδιασμού σταδιοδρομίας — από την επιλογή σπουδών μέχρι την επανατοποθέτηση στην αγορά εργασίας — με στόχο την ενδυνάμωση, τη σαφήνεια και τη μείωση του άγχους μπροστά σε σημαντικές αποφάσεις ζωής.

Αρχικά σπούδασε Μάρκετινγκ, όμως η ανάγκη της να κατανοήσει βαθύτερα τον άνθρωπο την οδήγησε στη Συνθετική Συμβουλευτική Ψυχικής Υγείας στο Κέντρο Εφαρμοσμένης Συμβουλευτικής και Ψυχοθεραπείας.
