Βασικός της στόχος είναι η δημιουργία ενός ασφαλούς, υποστηρικτικού και ουσιαστικού θεραπευτικού πλαισίου, μέσα στο οποίο ο θεραπευόμενος μπορεί να εκφραστεί ελεύθερα, να νιώσει αποδοχή και να εργαστεί με σεβασμό προς τον εαυτό του και τις ανάγκες του.Διαθέτει εμπειρία στην υποστήριξη ενηλίκων, στη συμβουλευτική γονέων και ζεύγους, καθώς και στη συμβουλευτική παιδιών και εφήβων.
