About me
I am a Medical Doctor (M.D) a Research Scientist (Ph.D), and a Licensed Psychotherapist (PsyD), registered in the Provincial Register of Doctors and Surgeons of Milan, and in the special bar of Psychotherapists of Lombardy (n° 42349). I obtained a degree in Medicine and Surgery and a doctorate in Translational Medicine from the University of Milan. I specialized in psychoanalytic psychotherapy at the school of the Italian Society of Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, based in Milan.
​
Between 2012 and 2018 I carried out research as a Research Fellow and a Principal Investigator for several American research institutes, including the San Francisco Veteran Affairs Medical Center, the University of California San Francisco, and the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH ). Since 2019 I have been a Marie Curie Fellow, an Assistant Professor and an Adjunct Professor at prestigious Italian Universities. I have edited more than fifty scientific publications in indexed scientific journals. Since 2012 I have regularly participated in national and international scientific events as a speaker.
​
Since 2018 I have been carrying out clinical activity, first visits for evaluation and clinical indication for treatment and psychotherapy paths. I have dealt with serious psychiatric pathologies in adults and adolescents, as well as anxiety disorders, depression, relational and emotional difficulties and more generally the conditions of discomfort experienced during life transitions.
My way of being a therapist
Knowing yourself and making yourself known is a complex and unpredictable process. Psychotherapy is a treatment made up of words and subtle gestures, silences and glances. I put myself out there, based on my resources and limits, and I am committed to creating a safe space, free from judgement, in which the person can find themselves, in their authenticity.
​
People with all sorts of problems come to me. My initial approach is to understand how a person interprets the things he feels, thinks and experiences. I usually take two or three meetings to gather this information. I need them to contextualize the problem she is experiencing, to understand what significance it has in her general functioning, and how I can help her.
​
I propose paths that try to adapt to the needs of the people who come to me. The duration and frequency depend on the difficulty and severity of the suffering, as well as the availability of those who seek my help. I am committed to ensuring that the people who rely on me feel listened to, supported in their attempt to recover psychological well-being, and seen in their entirety.
My style and my way of working are always influenced by the needs of the people in front of me and by the situation as it presents itself. I am not someone who believes in telling people what to do, as my experience has taught me that asking the right questions, listening to feedback, and working collaboratively with others to meet or support their needs is the most powerful tool, that leads to real relationships and lasting change.
