Psychiatry FAQ
Psychologists and psychotherapists provide talk therapy and behavioral interventions. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can prescribe and adjust medication, and they’re typically involved when symptoms are severe (major depression, bipolar disorder, severe anxiety, OCD, ADHD assessment) or when medication has been tried in the past. Often the best path is therapy with a psychologist, plus psychiatric consultation when medication is part of the picture.
Yes. Therapsy psychiatrists are licensed medical doctors and can prescribe psychiatric medication (antidepressants, anxiolytics, mood stabilizers, ADHD medication) and adjust dosages over time. Prescriptions are valid in Italy and follow EU regulations. For medication started abroad, your psychiatrist will review your history and continue or adjust the regimen as clinically appropriate.
Your psychotherapist and psychiatrist coordinate care directly. After initial sessions, if your therapist believes medication could help, they refer you to a Therapsy psychiatrist. The two clinicians communicate (with your consent) to align treatment, ensuring therapy and medication reinforce each other rather than work in isolation. You don’t have to manage the coordination yourself.
Both. Initial psychiatric evaluations and follow-up consultations can be done online via secure video call or in person at our Italian locations. Online psychiatric care is fully legal under Italian healthcare law and recognized by EU regulations. Prescriptions issued online are valid identical to in-person ones, sent to you electronically.

Latest insights
From our therapists, articles on what expats in Italy actually struggle with, and what helps.
- Dr. Francesca Adriana Boccalari
Therapy built around your life
Adults
Modern life keeps raising the bar - on work, on parenting, on how you should look and feel. Most adults we see are exhausted from chasing a version of "good enough" that keeps moving. Add unresolved stuff from earlier in life and the result is the same: trouble sleeping, relationships that drain instead of fill, a vague sense of being behind on your own life. 
Couples
Most couples don't come to therapy because love is gone. They come because the same fight keeps coming back, communication has turned into walking on eggshells, or one move abroad has shifted the balance of the relationship in ways neither partner expected. We work on what's underneath the recurring fight: the need that isn't getting heard. 
Adolescents & young adults
Becoming an adult has never been more confusing. Add social media, climate anxiety, a job market that won't sit still, and you have a generation under constant low-grade pressure. We give teens and young adults a space that's not home and not school - somewhere to figure out who they are without being judged for the answer. 
Expats & foreign students
The first six months abroad are exciting. Then everyone goes back to their lives and you realize yours hasn't started yet. The friendships are surface-level, the bureaucracy never ends, the family group chat happens while you're asleep. Loneliness, anxiety, and a creeping sense of "what am I doing here" are not weakness - they're the most predictable consequence of moving countries. We're here for that part. 
Adults
Adult life doesn’t arrive with a manual, and the expat version has even fewer pages translated. Our adult patients come to us with the struggles that don’t make for good Instagram captions: a manager who won’t change, a marriage running on autopilot, a parent’s health starting to slip back home, the person you thought you’d be by now.
Therapy with us is a space to slow down and look at all of it without performing. We use evidence-based approaches (CBT, ACT, EMDR, psychodynamic) chosen for what helps you, not what we prefer.
Some people stay 8 sessions, some stay 2 years. Both are fine. What matters is that you leave each session with something you didn’t walk in with.
Couples
A large share of the couples we see are international: one partner moved for the other’s job, or you come from different countries and built your relationship in a third. The dynamics are real. The “trailing spouse” cliché exists because it captures something true: the quieter partner often loses career, identity, and social network at once, while the other is busy with the new role and doesn’t fully see it.
Couples therapy with us is not about finding who’s right. It’s about finding the conversation neither of you is having: the resentment that’s gone underground, the appreciation that’s gone unsaid, the assumption one of you brought from your culture and the other never agreed to.
Sessions can be in your shared language, or in two languages if each of you prefers their own. Most couples leave with fewer fights – not because they avoid them, but because what was underneath has finally been named.
Adolescents & young adults
Adolescents often arrive at our door through their parents – sometimes willingly, sometimes resentfully, occasionally as a condition. Either way, the first thing we do is build trust on the teenager’s terms, not the family’s. What gets shared with parents is decided with the teenager, never behind their back. Adolescents who feel monitored shut down; adolescents who feel respected open up.
Many of our young patients are third-culture kids: growing up in a country that isn’t their parents’ country, switching languages between school and dinner, holding identities that don’t fit the categories adults assume. We get this. Our therapists work in the languages your child actually thinks in, not just the one they were tested in at school.
Expats & foreign students
Expat life has phases. The honeymoon (everything is charming), the adjustment (everything is exhausting), the integration (everything is just… life), and for some, the return shock (going “home” and finding it’s not). Each phase comes with its own emotional load, and the load gets heavier when you can’t process it in the language you grew up in.
Therapy in your fourth language doesn’t fail because you can’t speak it well enough. It fails because grief, anger, shame, longing – the things therapy actually works on – live in your first language. Translating them in real time, while a stranger watches, is exhausting and inaccurate.
With a therapist who speaks your first language, you can stop translating yourself and start being yourself.
