General Info

About me

Exercising the profession of Clinical Psychology has allowed me to offer this space of attentive listening, of the causes of human pain, so that the path is more bearable. The experience with adolescents has been enriching to recognize and validate their needs. Similarly work with people with chronic diseases such as gynecological cancer has made me grow and value every day what really matters in life, give the right sense to our here and now.
