About me
If you are here it might be that there is something happening inside you right now.
I'm Giovanni, Psychologist and Psychotherapist. We can try to look at that together.
I firmly believe that the therapeutic relationship is the main vessel of real change. Therapy is a journey to be embarked safely.
We will work together towards your objectives, it doesn't matter how far they seem now.
I am open and every time happy to discuss the way we work together, and I will invite you to share your thought about our work.
I provide psychotherapy for individuals and couples of any age and background.
I have a particular interest in Attachment Theory and Relational Transactional Analysis.
I work especially with:
- Feeling hopeless and stuck
- Anxiety and Generalised Anxiety Disorder
- Panic Disorders
- Relationship issues
- Family Issues and Divorce
- Betrayal
- Anger issues
- Stress
- Depression
- Abuse and Trauma
- Sexuality
- Gender identity
- Eating disorders
- Making sense of what happens or has happened
I subscribe to the Code of Ethics of the HCPC and UKCP, and I am fully covered by Professional Liability Insurance.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am an Italian integrative Chartered Counselling Psychologist and Psychotherapist (HCPC and BPS accredited, UKCP Accredited). I am currently completing additional training in order to become a Transactional Analyst Psychotherapist UKCP accredited.
I have worked with organisations and privately for 10 years, providing specialised and general therapy.
I have worked for years with Autism and Personality Disorders as a Psychologist first, and as a Psychotherapist thereafter. These difficult experiences have given me hard lessons, which I can all boil down to "there no pain that cannot be attended to".
