I am an Italian, bilingual, psychology associate in Washington D.C. and I provide therapy to young adults, adults, and seniors. I have experience working with diverse clinical populations and a broad spectrum of issues, with an emphasis on trauma and posttraumatic disorders, anxiety and depression, perinatal mood disorders, multicultural concerns, interpersonal and familial difficulties. I am a certified EMDR therapist, and I integrate this approach in my practice to help clients heal from traumatic or adverse life experiences.
I strive to create a collaborative, caring, and respectful relationship with my clients, which is essential to the in-depth work that occurs in psychotherapy. My approach is founded on creating a safe space for my clients to explore their inner worlds, understand their relational styles and make sense of their life journey with curiosity and self-reflection.
I will invite you to trade judgment for curiosity and accompany you through the process of finding new ways to access clarity and confidence, form and maintain meaningful connections, and live a more fulfilling life.
