About me

Hi, I’m Irene 🌷
As an expat myself, I understand the unique challenges that come with adjusting to a new country — the feelings of disconnection, cultural shifts, and the struggle to find support in a language you’re comfortable with. I’m fluent in Italian (my mother tongue), English, and French (C1), and currently learning German, so I primarily offer therapy in these languages to help expats feel truly heard and understood.

I’m also proud to be LGBTQ+ friendly and create a safe, welcoming space for clients of all identities and backgrounds.

While I specialize in working with adults facing ADHD, sleep disorders, and related challenges, my practice is about much more than diagnoses. I love incorporating practical tools like gentle exercises for anxiety relief and relaxation — techniques you can use both during sessions and in your everyday life to improve wellbeing.

My goal is to provide a warm, empathetic space where you can explore your experiences and find strategies that really work for you.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
CBT: Cognitive behavioral therapyRecommended for those looking for practical support and accountability to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
Clinical psychologyRecommended for those who need help with diagnosing and treating more complex mental health issues, often involving assessments and evidence-based treatments.
CounsellingRecommended for those who want to talk through their emotional challenges with a professional in a safe, supportive environment.
I am a trained psychologist with a background in neuroscience, having completed my training in Italy and Belgium (Brussels and Liège). My approach is primarily rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), complemented by Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). Understanding how the brain shapes our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors allows me to tailor therapy to your unique experience and needs.

Therapy is never one-size-fits-all. By combining neuroscience insights with evidence-based techniques, I work with you to build self-awareness, develop practical coping strategies, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I also incorporate relaxation exercises, mindfulness, and grounding techniques to help manage anxiety, improve sleep, and support those navigating challenges such as ADHD.

My style is collaborative, compassionate, and warm — I aim to create a safe space where you feel heard and empowered to discover what truly works for your life and goals.
