Individual Therapy

My main approach is Adlerian (Psychodynamic) and I will engage with you in a non-judgmental way, with trust and empathy.

 

The Adlerian therapy process has 4 phases as follows:

Phase 1: We will make sure that our therapeutic relationship is based on trust, active listening, caring and respect. Our relationship will be equal and we will experience the journey together; I will try to offer you encouragement and we will establish goals. I will encourage you to be an active participant in your therapy.

 

Phase 2: We will talk about your childhood, family constellation, life assessment. In this way we will have an idea about your childhood and your therapy goal. I will help you to understand your psychology, and what to change, so that you will have  a happier life. I will not give you a provisional diagnosis – I will have a holistic approach and I will see you as a whole person.

 

Phase 3 and 4 are Insight and Reorientation, when you will start having a better understanding of your reactions, values and coping strategies, you will establish goals for the future and you will start using more adaptive strategies in order to achieve your goals.

 

In Phase 4 we can integrate CBT or DBT strategies if you believe that it will be helpful. These strategies will be explained to you during the therapy process.

Working With Children And Parenting


If your child is struggling with their emotional wellbeing, or if you are experiencing difficulties in your relationship with your child, I am happy to offer support.


I have previous experience working with children as a Clinical Psychologist abroad, and also in schools and charities in the UK. During my sessions with children I use structured interviews and discussions if the children are above 10 years old.

With younger children (below 10 years old) I used to work through therapeutic play, art therapy and therapeutic stories and it is a necessity for the sessions with younger children to be carried on face to face.


I also offer parenting sessions to families based on Adlerian principles of positive parenting. During these sessions we will work on specific behavioural issues, you will become aware of the effects of different parenting styles and how to raise and educate children in soft and encouraging manners.  Parenting sessions will help you contribute to your child’s wellbeing and improve your relationship with your children.

We can explore together the four goals of misbehaviour, your child's needs and some strategies for engaging children in positive relationships with adults and peers.



Studying at Home

Couple therapy

The couple therapy process will follow the four stages described in the Individual Therapy section. During the Couple Therapy, both participants to therapy will have the opportunity to know themselves and their partner, to establish common goals and to find ways to respond to each others needs.

I’m sure you’ll find my services helpful and inspiring. Get in touch to learn more.
