David Livio
There are wounds that seem forgotten, but resurface at the most sensitive times.
A move, a sudden change, estrangement from loved ones: even common events can reopen deep experiences.
If you have experienced grief, trauma, or carry unnamed sadness inside,
David may be the right person.
- Work on the deeper meaning of experiences;
- Listen to what the body and mind retain;
- Useful for those who feel emptiness, bewilderment, or struggle to move on;
- Offers empathic listening to help you regain connection with yourself
For those who feel stuck, even when everything seems to be going well.
Valeria Fiocco
Do you feel trapped in the same thoughts all the time?
Do you have reactions that you don't control, but that seem to take over?
Do you feel lost, stuck, too tired to figure out where to start?
Even the most difficult behaviors make sense.
They are ancient responses, born to protect you.
Together we can:
- Recognize the patterns that cause you pain;
- Understand where they are coming from and what they are trying to tell you;
- Train new ways of responding to life;
- Regain calm, direction, presence.
Therapy is a safe space.
Not to become "perfect," but to finally feel seen.
And free to choose who to be.
Andrea Carta
In the course of life, it can happen to feel imprisoned in one's roles:
of child, partner, parent or other.
Or going through major changes-such as a relocation or a new professional start-that challenge ties and relationships.
Andrea is a guide for those facing difficulties related to:
- Family, work or group dynamics;
- Complex relationships;
- Critical life transitions.
Also useful for teenagers and couples
Goal: To find harmony again, to recognize one's place in the context of life, with lightness and deep respect for each story
