About me
What I bring into therapy is shaped both by my professional training and by my personal experience. Over time, through my own process and lived experience, I have developed a way of being in relationship that is attentive, compassionate, and open to the complexity of what we experience.
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and I am trained in Gestalt Therapy, an approach that places particular importance on awareness, relationship, and the role of the body in experience. Alongside this, I have trained in psychomotricity, trauma-sensitive yoga, and mindfulness with a trauma-informed perspective. These elements come together in an integrated way of understanding experience, where mind, emotions, and body are deeply interconnected. I am currently completing a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology of Childhood and Adolescence, with a focus on cognitive processes and the impact of digital environments on relationships and well-being.
My path has also been shaped by living and working in different countries and contexts. I have been in contact with very different realities — from more vulnerable environments to highly demanding and high-pressure settings, as well as structured and performance-driven spaces. Living as an expatriate and moving between these worlds has given me a direct experience of change, adaptation, pressure, and the search for place and identity.
I bring a compassionate and attentive presence to each person’s experience, with respect for what is visible and for what may not yet have words. This allows me to meet you without assumptions, and to stay close to what is emerging in the moment.

Approach
Throughout life, and especially in our earliest relationships, we develop patterns, beliefs, and ways of coping that shape how we relate to ourselves and others. These patterns are not only mental — they are also held in the body, influencing how we feel, react, and express ourselves.
At certain moments, such as grief, loss, transitions, or ongoing stress, we may feel uneasy, stuck, or disconnected, without fully understanding what is happening or how to change it. Many of these responses are automatic, sometimes even physical, which makes them difficult to recognize and transform.
Change begins with awareness. In therapy, we work together to bring attention to what is happening in your present experience — how you feel, how you respond, and how you relate. This includes recognizing recurring patterns, understanding where they come from, and noticing how they are expressed both mentally and physically.
My approach is grounded in Gestalt Therapy, with an integrative and relational perspective. I combine psychological understanding with body awareness and mindfulness, within a trauma-sensitive framework that respects your pace and what feels manageable. The body has a central place in this process, as it allows access to aspects of experience that are not always available through words.
The aim is to support you in strengthening your own resources, facing challenges from a more integrated place, and gradually shifting from external support toward internal support. From there, it becomes possible to open new ways of relating — more conscious, more balanced, and more aligned with yourself.
Each process is unique. We work from what you are experiencing now, adapting the process to your needs and rhythm. Over time, this can become a meaningful step toward greater clarity, coherence, and well-being.
