Nicole Civale

Licensed Clinical Psychologists

Committed and compassionate therapist for couples groups and individuals expert in personality, identity, addiction and affective disorders

About Me

As a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, this compassionate therapist offers dedicated support to individuals, couples, and groups. They skilfully address complex feelings around personality, identity, addiction, and affective disorders. Clients find a space to explore underlying patterns, helping them navigate difficult emotions and many build healthier connections. This approach is ideal for those seeking a committed expert to guide them towards clarity and well-being.

Approach

Committed to supporting couples, groups and individuals, my sessions blend careful listening with structured exploration of the patterns that shape personality, identity, addiction and mood. I practise from Rome and work in English, French and Italian, offering secure online appointments when needed. Therapy moves between diagnostic clarification, focused emotional processing, dream exploration and practical coping experiments, paced to your readiness and often reinforced with short between-session reflections. People seeking steady, compassionate support to untangle relationship, trauma or addictive patterns often find this approach helpful.
