About Me

As a psychiatrist, I collaborate with you to understand your unique mental landscape, drawing on insights from clinical neuropsychology and neuroscience. My approach integrates wellness psychology and psychoanalysis, offering a comprehensive path to well-being. We explore deeper patterns and equip you with practical strategies for daily life. Sessions are designed to help you navigate complex emotions, fostering resilience and balance, often including guided reflections to deepen understanding between meetings. This blend suits those seeking a holistic, medically informed approach to their mental health.

Approach

Neuroscience shapes how I map problems into manageable steps so we can both see progress as it unfolds. In Cagliari, in English or Italian, and by secure online sessions, I blend focused assessment with paced exploration—short structured tasks, reflective checkpoints and tailored experiments between meetings—to track mood, eating patterns and cognitive shifts. Sessions move from careful listening to concrete adjustments, with space for measured inquiry and practical rehearsal. This approach suits people who want thoughtful, evidence-attuned care that connects insight to everyday change.
