I would like to offer my expertise in the field of counseling/pychotherapy/wellbeing/mental health;
I would like to connect with people globally, drawing on the wonderful connections I've made through living in Dubai, Italy and Australia; My consultations can take place face to face at Vivacious Living at the corner of Riseley Street/Canning Highway, Perth, W.A, through Skype or in Dubai in the months of December and January. My work so far has been influenced by the following approaches: Person-centered approach, Relational Transactional Analysis, and Gestalt, Narrative Therapy and Positive Psychology.
I have been counseling since 2003. I have had extensive experience with adolescents, parents of adolescents, and adults of all ages and cultural background, having lived in Perth, Dubai as well as Italy. Being fluent in Italian, French, and having basic understanding of Arabic allows me to relate to individuals from these cultures more easily.
I bring a deep understanding of the challenges that individuals face when transported in a culture that is not their own. I. I also have a keen interest in issues related to grief, identity, life changing events, spirituality, challenges associated with development and age.
Besides counseling, I’ve been a high school teacher and workshop facilitator in Perth and in Dubai. I’m a wife and mother of two children
