By integrating a variety of therapeutic approaches such as humanistic, person-centered, cognitive-behavioral, and psychodynamic therapy, together we tailor our work to meet your specific needs.
Hello and welcome to my practice where I provide counselling and psychotherapy with people experiencing stress, sadness, or anxiety in their lives. There can be so many reasons behind why we are feeling awful, and it can be very hard sometimes to articulate, to share, or even to understand, our inner pain, but by engaging in a relationship with an empathetic therapist, you will experience someone who seeks to learn, to support, to understand, to sit through the hard conversations with you. At its core, a relationship with a psychotherapist helps you heal.

I work from an integrative perspective grounded in person centered therapy. I adapt the therapy to the needs of the individual while respecting their views and values. I believe that most individuals can heal, grow and find resources within in a supportive and non-judgemental environment. I will work with you in exploring issues from the past and how they are affecting you in the present. I will also help you with tools and resources to help you in the day to day. I have a special interest in working with all members of the adoption triad specifically around, loss rejection and a sense of identity.

My work is grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), with somatic and psychodynamic Interventions.
I offer online therapy for Italian speakers in Ireland, expats, professionals, and English-speaking adults who feel anxious, overloaded, or caught in patterns they cannot easily change. Many clients are functioning well on the outside while struggling with OCD, overthinking, relationship difficulties, loneliness abroad, loss, separation, relocation, or work pressure. My approach is collaborative and structured: we look at what keeps the problem going and build skills for real life.

I draw from attachment theory, psychodynamic principles, and relational life therapy, working with both individuals and couples.
Are you someone who longs for genuine connection but feels trapped in patterns of self-doubt, conflict, or control? Perhaps you are navigating trauma, an eating disorder, or relational struggles — perhaps caring deeply for others while feeling unseen yourself. Beneath the overwhelm, often my clients want to feel safe in their own skin, to understand their emotions, and to build relationships grounded in trust, balance, and authenticity. Together, we work toward calm, confidence, and connection that lasts.
