What can you expect? An authentic relationship, essentially. By this I mean that I truly believe in creating a relationship that works for you, a space where we both can support you in becoming more who you are, more in touch with your true nature and exploring who could you be if you allowed yourself to.

I believe the journey together leads towards more authenticity and more psychological freedom. It is an exciting exploration of what really matters to you particularly, and what has been neglected so far.

My Psychosynthesis practice blends the exploration of here-and-now problem solving with a focus on what is trying to emerge, how you have been in the world, and what has impacted the expression of your full potential.

An immediate struggle, like anxiety or depression, can often reveal which deep needs and wants have not been given enough attention. As a Psychosynthesis therapist, I guide you in exploring your internal resources and ways you can support yourself and enjoy life more fully.

I work in both short and open-ended, long term therapy.

I had many careers until I found the one I know is for me. Before that, I have worked in media and communication corporations for almost two decades, where I learnt how impactful the demands of the workplace and career can be, in particular when it comes to work and life balance, family, and quality of living. I was part of the music and entertainment industry and I am familiar with the struggles, the ups and downs, the ‘wobble’ of the creative process, from the inspiration phase, and all the way into the act of creation. I also worked a few years in education. Life-long learning, both personal and professional, is an ongoing process, which is fuelled by my passion and commitment to growth and potential.

My influences and studies includes, Jungian Psychoanalyses, Creativity in Therapy, Family Systems, Body work, Will and Change, Bibliotherapy: I consider my BA in Literature - American, German, English and Italian – the source and ground stone of my interest in the explorations of the human experience and what made me become a Counsellor.
