About me

I'm a developmental clinical psychologist based in Rome, English and Italian speaking. During those years I worked with children, adolescents and young adults in situations of psychological and psychosocial distress and I provided home assistance for children and adolescents with specific learning disorders as dislexia, discalculia and dysgraphia. I have experience with neurodivergencies as autism and ADHD and I'm currently specializing in the treatment of phobias and anxiety through the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I'm also a musician and music therapist to be and my next goal is to specialize in the neurologic music therapy treatment as in the treatment of music performance anxiety.

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.
I'm always trying to provide a tailored intervention on the specific difficulties brought up by the individual throught active listening and a sympathetic approach. I believe that I'm a simple "tool provider" and that changing is all based on the other person's active will to explore and to find other paths and ways of looking at reality and events. Everyone has the possibility to improve their resources span, I'm just here to help.
