From 1999 to 2006, following his undergraduate training, he worked in the Counseling Department of the “Laza Lazarević” Neuropsychiatric Hospital, where he was closely involved in psychological assessment and psychotherapy with both inpatient and outpatient populations. During this period, he pursued advanced professional training in clinical psychology, including family psychotherapy and Exner’s Comprehensive System for Rorschach interpretation. He also collaborated with several NGOs focused on counseling, assessment, and the development and implementation of mental health projects. His primary professional focus at the time was deepening clinical expertise in projective assessment methods and family psychotherapy, with a strong additional interest in eating disorders. In 2005, he earned the degree of Master of Psychology after completing his master’s thesis, “Empirical Analysis of Indicators of Eating Disorders on the NEO PI-R and the Rorschach Test.”

While there, he completed a four-year training program in family therapy based on the curriculum of the London Institute of Family Therapy and continued his professional development through numerous conferences and specialized courses in psychotherapy and counseling. Between 2012 and 2014, he conducted a large-scale study across multiple marriage and family counseling centers in several Serbian cities, focusing on marital crisis and couple psychotherapy. Based on this work, he completed his doctoral dissertation, “Individual Differences as Factors of Marital Crisis and Its Overcoming,” and earned his PhD in Clinical Psychology in 2016 at the Faculty of Philosophy, Department of Psychology, University of Belgrade. From 2015 to 2025, he served as ComPsych’s representative for Serbia—ComPsych being one of the world’s largest providers of employee assistance and workplace mental health services, headquartered in Chicago, Illinois.
