English version below; I am currently studying for a master's degree in Clinical Psychosexology at the La Sapienza University of Rome, which combines psychological and medical disciplines such as psychosexology, clinical psychology, evolutionary psychopathology and medical sexology. I completed my undergraduate education in the 'Psychological Science' program of the University of Padova. During my education, I worked as a Research Assistant in the field of parenting psychobiology within the Department of Developmental Psychology and Socialization. This experience gave me a strong foundation in understanding the complex dynamics of parent-child relationships and their impact on psychological development. I also completed my thesis in the same department, focusing on the psychological aspects of being a third culture individual. Specifically, I explored the consequences of multicultural identity in terms of mental health and interpersonal relationships. Having grown up in multiple countries myself, I deeply empathize with the challenges faced by immigrants and individuals navigating multicultural situations every day. My approach to counseling is based on the biopsychosocial-cultural model, which recognizes the complex interplay between biological, psychological, and social factors in shaping an individual's well-being. I believe in integrating a variety of therapeutic modalities and have the foundations of cognitive-behavioral and systemic approaches. My goal as a psychologist is to provide a safe and supportive space where you can explore your concerns, develop self-awareness, and work towards positive change. I'm here to support you on your personal development journey, helping you build resilience, improve your well-being, and develop fulfilling relationships. ———— I am currently pursuing a master's degree in Clinical Psychosexology at the Sapienza University of Rome, which integrates psychological and medical disciplines such as psycho-sexology, clinical psychology, evolutionary psychopathology and medical sexology.
