Clinical areas

The areas where I can offer specific support.

A map of the main areas of intervention. Every journey remains unique: the tools of the cognitive-behavioural approach are always adapted to the person, their history and their goals.

Anxiety and worry

Anxiety is a universal experience, but when it becomes pervasive it can limit choices and quality of life. A CBT pathway helps to understand the mechanisms that maintain it and to build effective tools.

Panic attacks and agoraphobia

A panic attack is an intense wave of fear that peaks within minutes. When avoidance of places and situations develops, this is called agoraphobia — a condition that can progressively restrict freedom of movement.

Social anxiety and difficulties in social situations

Fear of others' judgment, discomfort in social situations, difficulty speaking in public or sustaining conversations: when these experiences limit daily life, a CBT pathway can make a significant difference.

Health anxiety and somatisation

The body registers what the mind cannot always process. Recurring physical symptoms without a clear medical explanation, persistent worry about one's health, repeated recourse to check-ups: these experiences deserve careful clinical attention.

Self-esteem and personal growth

Our internal dialogue shapes daily experience more than we realise. Working on self-esteem means recognising its mechanisms and building a fairer relationship with oneself.

Relationship difficulties and personality disorders

Difficulties in affective and interpersonal relationships often reflect learned patterns that, once recognised, can be redefined. Some relational distress is connected to personality traits for which next-generation CBT offers specific tools.

Hospital clinical psychology: cardiology, orthopaedics and support for healthcare workers

Facing illness, cardiac surgery or an orthopaedic rehabilitation pathway is an experience that involves mind, body and relationships. Psychological support is an integral part of it. Healthcare workers too have the right to a space of care.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder

OCD manifests with unwanted intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and behaviours or rituals aimed at reducing distress (compulsions). CBT with Exposure and Response Prevention is among the most studied and recommended interventions.

Intense fears and specific phobias

A specific phobia is an intense, persistent, disproportionate fear of a specific object or situation. Although recognised as irrational, the fear causes real distress and can significantly limit daily life.
