My Method

“Therapy has to do with two people playing together: the patient and the therapist. The corollary of this is that where playing is not possible then the work done by the therapist is directed towards bringing the patient from a state of not being able to play into a state of being able to play.”
(D.W. Winnicott, “Playing: Its Theoretical Status in the Clinical Situation,” 1971)

My Method

My work is grounded in a trauma-informed, psychodynamic, and body-oriented approach. Sessions can be entirely verbal, depending on the needs and preferences of each person. When necessary or requested, then I also integrate movement, creative, and expressive methods to support emotional exploration, self-awareness, and personal growth.

I believe that both words and bodily experience can offer valuable pathways to understanding ourselves. Through a collaborative process, I support clients in developing a deeper awareness of their emotions, needs, relational patterns, and inner resources. The integration of verbal reflection and embodied experience can help strengthen emotional regulation, resilience, and a sense of connection with oneself and others.

My aim is to create a safe, respectful, and inclusive space in which meaningful change can emerge at a sustainable pace.

Counseling Sessions

Types of sessions

Individual Sessions

In the individual setting we can move together, talk, think and focus on your needs and what it is you would like to achieve; developing together a personal path that will better suit you. Each process usually begins with an initial introductory session, during which we decide together the most suitable frequency of sessions, ranging from one to two sessions per week to one to two sessions per month.

Group Sessions

The group setting offers us a chance to share our needs as well as contemplate the needs of others. A group session can be a wonderful echo chamber in which to work on ourselves, as well as to better understand how we function with others.

Workshops

I also regularly offer expressive movement workshops, where, within a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment, it is possible to engage creatively through movement and other creative practices.

There's no age limit. I offer sessions to children starting from 5 years old to elderly.

Absolutely not; it's open to people who have never had any experience with dance and movement as well as to professional dancers or performers. Movement will be the tool of our sessions in the same way words are used in a psychotherapy session; there's no right or wrong, there's you and your own personal way of moving through space.

Unfortunately not but I always try to meet the needs of every single client, depending on their economical situation.

Absolutely. Dance Movement Therapy can be an excellent complement to psychotherapy, offering additional tools for working on oneself and one's internal processes. 

It can also play a supporting role of, as well as give guidance to, one's own processing of knowledge and personal awareness.

I offer individual and group sessions in Italian, English and German languages.
