Hi everyone!
I'm Alessia, originally from Italy and now living in Amsterdam. I specialize in assisting individuals managing Chronic Pain, Anxiety, Mood/Affective disorders, Stress issues and Burnout, Career and Personal Development, as well as those with various neurological conditions —including neurodevelopmental (Autism, ADHD, Learning Diseases) and neurodegenerative conditions (ALS, Parkinson, Alzheimer, Frontotemporal Dementia and pathological aging) and stroke.
My work allows me to provide:
My professional experiences bridged clinical practice and research, always applying the best personalized treatment.
I offer both online and in-person sessions (TACA Amsterdam).
Life can be challenging: some decisions feel overwhelming or thoughts seem impossible to control. I know firsthand how important it is to have the right support during these moments. My experience as a client helps me understand what you might be going through, and I seek to create a comfortable space where you can freely communicate your needs and expectations. I strongly believe that a trusting therapeutic relationship - built on collaboration and openness - is key, along with self-awareness: the ability to understand and regulate emotions, manage thoughts, and develop adaptive coping strategies is essential to finding balance, even while facing challenges or life transitions.
Remember, it is completely natural to have doubts, and that's why the first step is simply reaching out. From here, we can explore together our opportunities based on how you feel.
My goal is to guide you through the path we are taking and give you the tools to support yourself in the future. I do this using a Cognitive-Behavioural approach combined with Mindfulness practice. I approach my work with a holistic perspective, considering your whole person, not only for the challenges you are facing. Your experiences, emotions and strengths all play a vital role in this journey toward a greater balance and fulfillment.
