In practice

I work with adults in a caring, reassuring environment that respects each individual's pace. The first sessions enable me to clarify your situation and your needs, so that together we can define clear, appropriate and measurable objectives.

My support is based on concrete, progressive tools designed to bring about lasting changes in daily life: understanding difficulties, regulating emotions, strategies for dealing with anxiety, working on intrusive thoughts, avoidance or certain relational patterns. Work can include practical exercises, role-playing and support in experimenting with new ways of acting.

Group sessions can also be organized in collaboration with Valentina Prontera, psychologist-psychotherapist.

Psychological tests used (psychometric assessments)

These tests identify the presence of symptoms, measure their intensity and guide treatment. They do not establish a diagnosis on their own: in conjunction with the clinical interview and anamnesis, they guide interventions.

• Depressive state: BDI-II (Beck Depression Inventory)
• Anxiety: BAI (Beck Anxiety Inventory), STAI (State/Trait), GAD-7 (generalized anxiety)
• Emotional regulation: CERQ, DERS-F
• Relationships and assertiveness: Rathus (assertiveness), Chalvin (relational behaviors)
• Suicide risk: Rencontre approach, PILOT tool

In addition to these questionnaires, certain structured diagnostic interviews provide a standardized assessment of the presence of a disorder and support clinical judgment:

• Adult ADHD: DIVA-5
• Psychological disorders: MINI (DSM-5 structured interview)
