I am a psychologist, supervisor, CBT psychotherapist, and social entrepreneur with 14 yearrs-experience delivering evidence-based psychological services to individuals, charities, and organisations.
As an HCPC-registered practitioner across clinical, counselling, occupational, and health psychology, I bring a unique, interdisciplinary skill set that has enabled me to design and deliver innovative, award-winning solutions.
Rooted in the scientist-practitioner model, my work is guided by ongoing psychological research. I believe this is the foundation of effective interventions and transformative projects that advance mental wellbeing, and drive meaningful social impact.
My top 5 character values: honesty, creativity, courage, perseverance, altruism.
A creative mindset for professional development
Creativity is a powerful and fulfilling way to express your potential. What we learn becomes much more meaningful when curiosity relies on interests that lead the way.
Given the broad applications of psychology, I lean towards an interdisciplinary approach to support and promote human development across multiple contexts.
I hold a dual Bachelor's degree in Psychology and Education Sciences, which laid the foundation for an integrative perspective. I continued my academic journey at the same pace with two Master's degrees—one in Human Resources and the other in Clinical Psychology, Counselling, and Psychotherapy—studied at Babeș-Bolyai University (Romania) and the Albert Ellis Institute (USA)
.
After graduation, I began working in private practice while also contributing to community projects in partnership with various NGOs. I took on diverse roles—from counselling vulnerable youth to delivering training and providing research coaching.
This has allowed me to navigate complex environments, integrate diverse skills, and learn through hands-on experience. Such opportunities helped me develop a flexible, practice-based approach and a deep appreciation for the value of interdisciplinary work.
We Are What We Know, We Become What We Do
Pursuing a career in psychology was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made, as authentic motivation has the power to turn work into passion. I understood early on that true discipline requires structure, which led me to further qualify in complementary fields such as training, career counselling, project management, and innovation management.
These skills proved to be essential for developing a reliable mindset, advance complex projects and trust challenge much more when aiming for innovation or lasting change.
A meaningful calling for a purposeful life There is no such thing as luck, we are meant to discover the opportunities that match our skills, values and potential.
Some of my initiatives include ResponsivEbooks® (an interactive platform designed to support engagement and learning for social development), The Self-Help Incubator® (a social initiative dedicated to unlocking human potential through innovation and psychological insight), or Mindful Living Networking (an event series created to cultivate critical thinking and encourage meaningful, rewarding social interaction).
To me, progress means change, rehearsing new ways of thinking or a range of strategies to iterate development safely. The result, a genuine approach for you to always find a better way forward.
Research not only informs my practice, but it also allows you to understand the scientific elements that promote health and enhance performance. Below you can find a list of abstracts, including selected research I conducted so far.
