Expert TherapistEnglish 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.

This experience gave me a strong foundation in understanding the complex dynamics of parent-child relationships and their impact on psychological development.

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.

92% of those who start their online therapy journey are very satisfied with Terappin
Take the first step in your therapy journey towards a more peaceful life with Terappin's licensed therapists.
Access to a therapist was not easy for me due to my location. This application was a great convenience for me. Also, the ability to receive therapy at the environment I want, eliminates the possibility of breaking the therapy process in the middle, because it is already difficult for me to gather myself and go to therapy at times. Terappin was a good choice for me in this regard. Many thanks to Terappin.
