Hello, I’m Filomena

I am a person-centred counsellor offering a warm, non-judgmental space where you can explore whatever is on your mind.

I trained as a counsellor because I believe deeply in every person’s capacity for growth and self-understanding. My own experience of therapy showed me how transformative it can be to have a space that is entirely yours — free from the expectations and dynamics of everyday relationships.

I work in the person-centred tradition, which means I follow your lead. I don’t offer advice or tell you what to do. Instead, I offer my full attention, genuine curiosity, and unconditional positive regard, trusting that you are the expert on your own life.

I offer sessions in both English and Italian, which means you can work in whichever language feels most natural and expressive for you. Sessions take place online or by phone, so you can access support from wherever you feel most comfortable.

Outside of my practice I continue to develop professionally through supervision and ongoing training, and I am committed to working ethically and safely with everyone I see.

My approach

Person-centred counselling is built on the belief that each of us has an innate drive towards growth and wellbeing. When life circumstances, difficult experiences, or unhelpful patterns get in the way of that, therapy can help clear a path. I don’t follow a rigid structure or set agenda — our sessions are shaped entirely by what matters to you.
