Francesca has been my therapist for over a year now, and I am incredibly grateful for her support. I went through some difficult times during the pandemic and for other personal reasons, and being an expat in Milan didn't make things any easier. But Francesca's ability to listen carefully and to see my life from different perspectives has been invaluable. I can honestly say that I am in a much better mental space now, and my overall well-being has improved significantly. Thank you, Francesca!

I am one of her patients who only understands English or German. Francesca speaks English very well and explains everything very well during the therapy session. Even if she sometimes doesn't know a specific word, I can still understand what word she is looking for from her explanation. She is kind and caring and has the motivation to help people. She is one of the many therapists I have had who is not weird or makes you work too hard. She understands your limits and maybe pushes them a little bit more to help you with your problems, but if you tell her it's too far from the limit she will understand and try to help you in another way. All in all, I really recommend her and I trust her.
Mara B.
I will try to give a professional review of Francesca. I think her strong point is making people feel comfortable in a way that only close people know how to do: the ones who really care about how you are. She is available for hours and location and is present if you are in difficult times but do not have a way to go to the studio. She respects the patient's time, proceeds slowly and carefully to get to the heart of the matter.. to the heart of the problem.. and help to solve it. I came across Francesca a bit by chance, but I believe that getting help from her was the best decision I could make in recent years!​
Allison D.
Francesca is a fantastic therapist. She is very empathetic and warm, she makes you feel comfortable from the start. Her advice was incredibly valuable and in a few sessions she completely changed my perspective and gave me very sound advice. Our sessions were in English and we were able to communicate perfectly. I highly recommend Francesca to anyone!​
