Background and approach

Her work often focuses on understanding how past attachments and experiences shape present feelings. She addresses problems such as abandonment worries, guilt, shame and isolation. She also supports people dealing with panic, mood difficulties and the emotional impact of pregnancy and childbirth.

Barbara can work in English or Italian, and she is available to people outside the UK as well. Therapy sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, offering different ways to connect depending on what fits your life. Initial steps are straightforward: choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to availability.

Fees vary with location and the subscription model used can be cancelled at any time.

Approaches that help online and in conversation

Barbara uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on understanding patterns and building coping skills. One common approach she uses helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and test them with small real-life experiments to reduce anxiety and panic. This method is practical and goal-oriented, helping with symptoms such as panic attacks and persistent worry.

She also works from a relational perspective that looks at attachment and past experiences. This helps people see how early relationships affect current trust, boundaries and communication. It can be useful for issues such as abandonment concerns, guilt and difficulty forming close relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences and what feels manageable, and then suggest ways to proceed. That choice is reviewed as you go so the plan can change based on what helps most.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions suit those who prefer not to be on camera, and live chat or text-based messaging can make shorter check-ins easier. These options help people fit therapy around work, childcare or travel without losing continuity of care.
