My name is Irene, founder of Numina Clinic and psychotherapist now practicing at Integrative Psychology. I have extensive training in the integrative approach to psychotherapy and more than a decade of expertise in the practice and teaching of yoga and bodywork. I work with awareness of both body and mind to support you in achieving your desired outcomes. We offer therapy in different languages and are passionate about supporting individuals and couples in their personal journeys.
​
I believe that psychotherapy is "gentle activism"; it creates better interpersonal connections, fostering a more harmonious world. For me, psychotherapy is the most rewarding profession. Seeing people flourish in their experience of life and become who they want to be gives us a deep sense of integrity.
We offer therapy in English, Italian, French and Spanish.
How do we work?
Individualised treatment in the container of a therapeutic relationship
UNIQUENESS
At Numina, we uphold the notion that every person is truly unique in who they are, and my practice moves away from the one-size-fits-all approach to therapy.
Instead, I see people for their uniqueness, bearing in mind the close ties between the body and mind.
I draw on theories from a vast array of models to account for variables that can be missed in many clinical approaches to therapy.
INCLUSIVITY
At Numina, many of us have lived in different countries over the course of our life, We have experienced first-hand the impact that culture and socio-economic background can have on our sense of belonging, and our understanding of ourselves and others.
In our practice we adopt a gender-sensitive and multicultural approach, welcoming clients from all walks of life.
SAFETY
We take a gentle person-centred stance and I approach each client with curiosity and presence, to better understand the nature of your particular concerns.
Together, we work collaboratively to create a treatment plan that ensures each of your needs is met and we move at a pace that works for you.
We hope to facilitate a safe environment that evokes your natural capacities for healing and growth.
