Since 2019, she has maintained a private psychotherapy practice for adults, working with individuals, couples, and groups.

From 1999 to 2020, she held leadership positions in major organizations. From 1999 to 2008, she worked at the Development Agency “ENA CHIOU”, managing programs for vulnerable groups, human resources, and European projects.

Deeply committed to Community Psychiatry and Social Economy, she has played a key role in founding two Social Cooperatives for Mental Health (KOISPEs): “Orion” (Chios) and “Athina-Elpis” (Attica). These cooperatives aim to provide employment and social reintegration opportunities for people with psychosocial difficulties.
