My Journey

My professional path in education, management and human resource development has always had one common core: people. The ability to listen meaningfully, to understand beyond words, and to stand where someone is struggling.

For more than 15 years I designed educational programmes, led teams and worked alongside people at critical crossroads in their lives: students, professionals, families. What defined my work was not strategy or structure. It was the responsibility toward the person in front of me and the future I could help them build.

Learning has always been at the core of how I live and work, long before any formal qualification. I am always looking ahead: what is coming, what is changing, how I can grow in order to be genuinely useful to those who come to me. First as a person. Then as a professional.

This path did not change direction. It evolved into a conscious and responsible choice to enter the field of Counselling and Psychotherapy, through studies at the National & Kapodistrian University of Athens, specialisation, and a personal journey through psychotherapy.

The understanding I bring to my work combines clinical training, structured professional experience, and a deep personal knowledge of what it means to find your way through complex and demanding circumstances.

In our sessions I bring knowledge, experience and empathy. I create a safe, confidential space where you can be heard and understood, without judgement, without pressure. We work together, at your own pace, to bring about the change you define, and which requires the courage to look honestly at what you want to change.

My Approach

I work with an integrative, trauma-informed approach, drawing deliberately from multiple therapeutic frameworks, shaped to the needs of each person.

My work follows a single thread: whatever brings you here, even when it looks like a separate problem, usually begins at the same place: the rupture between safety and connection.
