Είναι απόφοιτος Ψυχολογίας του Université de Strasbourg και συνεχίζει τις μεταπτυχιακές του σπουδές στην Εφαρμοσμένη Κλινική Ψυχολογία (M.Sc. in Applied Clinical Psychology) στο University of Central Lancashire (UCLan), μέσω του ICPS.

Στην επαγγελματική του προσέγγιση δίνει έμφαση στην κατανόηση του ανθρώπου πέρα από το σύμπτωμα. Οι δυσκολίες που εμφανίζονται στη ζωή μας δεν αντιμετωπίζονται απομονωμένα, αλλά διερευνώνται σε σχέση με την προσωπική ιστορία, τις εμπειρίες, τις σχέσεις και τον τρόπο με τον οποίο ο καθένας έχει μάθει να αντιλαμβάνεται τον εαυτό του και τους άλλους. Γιατί ο άνθρωπος είναι πάντα κάτι περισσότερο από το σύμπτωμά του. Στόχος της συμβουλευτικής διαδικασίας είναι η δημιουργία ενός ασφαλούς και ουσιαστικού χώρου, όπου ο άνθρωπος μπορεί να κατανοήσει βαθύτερα όσα τον δυσκολεύουν, να αναγνωρίσει επαναλαμβανόμενα μοτίβα και να αναζητήσει νέους τρόπους να σχετίζεται με τον εαυτό του και τους άλλους. Εξέλιξη δεν είναι να αλλάξεις αυτό που είσαι. Είναι να ανακαλύψεις περισσότερο τον εαυτό σου.
