Dr Giovanni La Veglia

Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist

“Experienced psychotherapist in treating stress, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, mood disorders, addictions.”

About Me

Feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, or recurring patterns like depression can be isolating. As an experienced psychoanalytic psychotherapist, I help you gently uncover the deeper roots of these challenges. Together, we explore past experiences and present feelings, making sense of what feels stuck without judgment. This approach helps individuals find lasting relief and a clearer path forward, especially for those ready to understand themselves profoundly.

Approach

From our starting point of understanding recurring patterns, I work in a paced, reflective way that names emotions, links present struggles to earlier experiences, and tests small shifts between sessions. Meetings are conversational yet focused: we use careful listening, gentle interpretation, and practical observations so impulses, cravings or mood swings become clearer and more manageable. I often suggest brief focused tasks between sessions to track changes and build awareness. This way of working suits adolescents and adults ready for thoughtful, steady exploration of difficult patterns.
