My Story

I grew up in Italy, in the province of Milan, in a very close-knit, noisy and festive family: I learned that life must be lived with love, joy and enthusiasm.

When my mother, my beloved mother, passed away in 2014, it was difficult, very difficult: fortunately in the meantime a great love had been born, which continues again and again and again...

I have two wonderful children, Jean-Jacques and Olivier, who I adore.

When my father also passed away in 2018, I felt like a tree without roots: life can be hard, but it remains a wonderful journey.

Together with my "new" family we moved to The Hague in 2021: a new adventure has begun!

My Approach

I like to study and look for new ways to feel good about myself and others.

I believe in the importance of change, of our choices and of being protagonists of our lives. If you are motivated to change, contact me.

​

I have a master's degree in Clinical Psychology and I have studied CBT (Cognitive behavioral therapy), ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) and IFS (Internal Family Systems) of which I am certified Level 1 by the IFS Institute. I am constantly curious to learn about the most innovative techniques for people's well-being.

​

IFS is the model that fascinates me the most and that I fell in love with: it turns your eyes towards your Self and opens your heart to change.

The IFS (Internal Family System): internal system therapy

The IFS (Internal Family System) is a therapy that is:

  • innovative,

  • evidence-based (i.e. based on scientific evidence),

  • non-pathologizing (i.e. does not point the finger at the pathology, the disease, a problem),

which allows the therapist to help the person's Self to regain that serenity and balance needed to live well with ourselves and with others.

​

From the IFS perspective, each of us contains a set of emotions, styles of expression, desires, thoughts, sensations, different talents called Parts. Each part within our internal system has a role, for example many of us have a critical part, which often tells us that what we do is not right or a skeptical part, which pushes us to doubt something. Listening to these parts allows us to get in touch with ourselves: each person has all the resources necessary to feel good. If you want to solve your problems at the root, IFS is your therapy.
