About
Training that unites science, clinical practice and human development.
I am a psychologist with solid, multidisciplinary training and a practice focused on human and organisational development. My path is defined by the integration of science, clinical practice and people-management strategies, centred on well-being, interpersonal relationships and both individual and collective performance.
I believe in a contemporary understanding of mental health: there is no sustainable innovation, consistent creativity or effective leadership without care for emotional well-being and the relationships that sustain us. From that perspective, I build with each person a path of listening, meaning and change.
My approach
I work from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), one of the most strongly evidence based approaches in psychology. The core idea is simple: the way we interpret what happens to us directly shapes what we feel and do. Together we identify the thoughts and patterns that sustain the distress, understand where they come from and build more flexible, realistic ways of responding. It is a practical, collaborative process guided by clear goals, where you leave each session with concrete tools to use in daily life, at your own pace and always in a warm, confidential space.
