Cos'è la Psicoterapia Integrativa?
La psicoterapia integrativa lavora con una vasta gamma di clienti, problemi e contesti, concentrandosi sull'unicità di ogni paziente e sulla relazione terapeutica.
Ero abbastanza giovane quando mi sono interessata per la prima volta alla psicoterapia. Il comportamento degli adulti mi ha lasciata perplessa e sono diventata curiosa rispetto alle mie fonti di dolore. Ho iniziato ad esplorare cosa significa vivere in maniera sana e come le condizioni avverse influiscono sulla propria esperienza di vita. A 24 anni ho sviluppato una malattia che ha cambiato la mia vita, ed è allora che ho capito la connessione intrinseca tra mente e corpo. L'evento mi ha ispirato a vivere una vita con maggiore significato e mi sono tuffata nella pratica e insegnamento dello Yoga. Inoltre, nel 2015, ho fondato Kahuna Temple, un'organizzazione dedicata a sostenere il ripristino del corpo e della mente attraverso il lavoro corporeo e il movimento.
Avendo sperimentato traumi, sia nella mia infanzia che nell'età adulta, ho una consapevolezza diretta di come gli eventi traumatici hanno un impatto drastico sul proprio senso di sé e su come comprendiamo il mondo. Per lungo tempo ho lavorato su questi dolori, ed ho imparato quanta pazienza e coraggio occorrono per superare tali danni. Il lavoro terapeutico mi ha insegnato l'importanza della fiducia e la necessità di avere ancore nella propria vita: avere persone che ti capiranno, ti sosterranno e ti aiuteranno, come amici, familiari e un terapista affidabile e professionale, è la base per ogni guarigione.

La psicoterapia integrativa lavora con una vasta gamma di clienti, problemi e contesti, concentrandosi sull'unicità di ogni paziente e sulla relazione terapeutica.

Group supervision offers not only a more accessible way to engage in supervision but also a space where you can feel safely held within a supportive community.
We cover the same core areas as in individual supervision, while benefiting from the richness of multiple perspectives.
Group supervision is open to counsellors, psychotherapists, social workers, and psychologists.
Irene deeply values the diversity of professional backgrounds within the group, as it allows for a broader understanding of client work and creates opportunities to learn from one another’s approaches, experiences, and ways of thinking.
Groups run online for 90 minutes, for 6 consecutive weeks and with a maximum of 6 participants.
A minimum of 4 participants is required for the group to run.
Fee: $480 ($80 each 90-minute session)
