“In this big city, I sometimes feel alone.” “I feel like I’ve lost my sense of purpose.” “I have a deep desire to become a parent.” “I’m thinking about quitting my job.” “Everything seems to be changing, and I feel lost.” These are just some of the thoughts that can bring someone to start counselling.
I’m Alessandra, a Counselling Psychologist, and I offer psychological support in both Italian and English, helping individuals navigate stress (including work-related stress), relationship and family challenges, anxiety, mood difficulties, grief and loss, gender-based violence, parenting, and life transitions, including the experience of living abroad.
In my work, I focus on each person’s uniqueness. I am interested in your experience, in how you tell your story. Through that story, we can revisit familiar paths, discover new landscapes, and perhaps find unexpected routes. If parts of these experiences echo within you, I’d be glad to meet you where you are and explore together what you need right now.
