ABOUT ME
I’m an Italian professional psychologist, who offers counseling for adults and young adults both in Vicenza and online. I graduated in 2002 in Clinical and Community Psychology at the University of Padua, with a thesis about the subjective experience of time, theme that always fascinated me, linking psychology to philosophy. After graduation, I actively collaborated with the 2nd Psychiatric Service of the Mental Health Centre of Vicenza (CSM II), initially as an intern and later as a practicing psychologist. Subsequently, having moved to England, I had the opportunity to work for an HMYOI (Young Offenders Institution), delving into various issues related to youth distress, learning difficulties, and integration. I’ve always paid special attention to the world of young adults and the inevitable challenges associated with internal and external changes that the transition from adolescence to adulthood brings, and certainly this experience has allowed me to expand my knowledge in this field. I am very attentive to people’s well-being, and I provide support to anyone facing difficulties related to a particular moment in their life who feels in need of a professional help. Currently, I am enrolled in the Specialization School in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy I.R.E.P. (European Institute for Research in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy) in Padua.
WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU
I work mainly in my studio in the city center of Vicenza, providing psychological support through counseling sessions for adults, couples and young adults. My aim is to offer support in a welcoming environment, warmly open to anyone facing a difficult time. Bereavements, separations, changes in direction, and significant life transitions are all events where an external reference point can be helpful in the process of seeking a new balance. I like to think that asking for help to a psychologist is somewhat similar to leaning on a crutch when you struggle to walk. Together, we will define our goals, in a safe and protected listening space, where everyone can feel free to express their thoughts and emotions.
My main area of expertise are:
- Psychological and emotional support for adolescents, young adults, and adults
- Issues related to anxiety in personal, work, or school contexts
- Support during the grieving process
- Counseling during existential crises
- Relationship difficulties
- Problems related to self-esteem, integration, and self-acceptance
- Support in issues related to discrimination
- Support and counseling during periods of high stress and change
