About Me

Dione is a highly experienced counsellor and psychotherapist, bringing a profound depth of knowledge to each session. With a background in designing university Counseling courses and supervising future practitioners, Dione offers a robust and carefully structured space for clients to explore their concerns. Those seeking a well-grounded and comprehensive approach to their emotional wellbeing will find strong support here.

Approach

A clear, structured rhythm guides how we work: sessions focus on mapping immediate concerns into practical steps while keeping deeper patterns in view. From my base in San Gwann and online, in English, Italian or Maltese, I pace sessions to suit you—sometimes concentrated short-term work, other times slower exploration—with reflective tasks between meetings to test shifts in daily life. Supervision-informed feedback helps untangle dynamics around identity, relationships, addiction or mood, and many clients navigating transitions find this focused, collaborative way steadying.
