I am originally from Italy but have lived in London for the last 26 years. I have also lived in Japan, India, Vietnam, US and Spain and I work in English, Italian and Spanish.

I have a corporate background of 20+ years, which began right after my University of London studies and then came to an ending when I discovered yoga, meditation and psychotherapy, and decided to become a therapist myself.

My decision was made naturally and consciously. The more I met myself in the therapy room and on the yoga mat, the more I realised I wanted to move into a profession where I could help others who might be experiencing what I had gone through in life.

I am a single mother, an immigrant, a victim of domestic abuse and a daughter of a narcissistic mother. I am very open about it and I believe that talking about this in therapy is what ultimately led me to heal and accept all these parts of myself and also be proud of whom I have become.

I will meet you with empathy, understanding and full acceptance for whom you are. It is my aim to help you discover all parts of yourself and lead a fulfilling life, free of shame and guilt and full of self-love and self-awareness.

In our work together, I will guide you and facilitate a process through which you will meet yourself in a true and authentic way. I might include some breath work, meditations, affirmation writing or other creative exercises if you are open to it.

We will also work around your inner child and the wounded parts that might need attending, so that you can re-establish a connection with yourself and strengthen the most important relationship: the one with yourself. I strongly believe that once you can 'see' and 'meet' yourself, you can see and meet others in ways you might have not experienced before.

All our sessions are confidential and an opportunity of Self-exploration.

I don't work on week-end days nor bank holidays. I am usually out of office during the month of August and during the Xmas holiday period (2 weeks).

I offer online and face to face sessions typically from Mon-Fri from 8am up to 5pm and some evenings. 

Please reach out to discuss alternative slots.

I create a safe and confidential, non judgemental space for all my clients. My goal is to help you find your guide within and re-discover the parts of yourself that you might have put aside for one reason or the other. My work centres around empowering my clients to find their voice, their no, their needs and honour them with no shame, guilt or fear. I believe in the power of self-love and healing from the heart.

I invite you into this journey with an open heart and soul, to really meet and honour your Self.

I have extensive experience with clients who: have expatriated, new parents, single mothers, neuro-diverse, mid-life crisis, depression.

Each session is between 50 and 60 minutes and if you're open to it, we can explore meditation, breath work, cards, affirmation and journal writing and other holistic techniques, which together with talking therapy, will help you unleash your power and potential. Are you ready to meet yourself and honour the sacredness you hold within?

I always offer an initial, free of charge, consultation of about 20-30 minutes. During this time I will explain how I work and you can also tell me about yourself and what has brought you to therapy. We will then establish if we want to work together and embark on this beautiful journey.
