About Matteo
He draws on 24 years of experience to guide conversations and plan next steps. Sessions focus on what the person needs now, whether that means managing symptoms, coping after a loss, or tackling patterns that keep causing trouble. Matteo uses everyday language and clear goals so sessions feel useful from the start.
Matteo uses several approaches to match the moment and the person. Client-centered work means the person’s goals lead the conversation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors and how to change unhelpful patterns. Motivational Interviewing supports people who feel stuck about change.
He also brings elements of psychodynamic thinking to notice long-standing patterns that affect current life. Solution-focused techniques help set short-term, concrete goals that can be tested between sessions. Together these methods help people manage anxiety, sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, and life transitions.
Sessions are grounded in respect and practical planning. Matteo helps people weigh options, try small changes, and review what works. If you want clear, steady support for difficult problems, he may be a fit.

How Matteo’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s priorities and listens to what they say matters most. Online sessions using this approach focus on what the client wants to change and adapt the pace to the person’s needs.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy identifies specific thoughts and behaviors that contribute to distress and builds practical skills to shift them. In virtual meetings, CBT often uses homework and brief in-session exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting.
Motivational Interviewing helps people find internal reasons to make a change. When done online, it supports people who feel unsure or stuck by exploring ambivalence and strengthening commitment to small steps.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Matteo will collaborate with each person to try methods that match their goals and will adjust the plan as progress or obstacles appear. This process is shared and practical rather than fixed.
Session format details are not specified in the profile, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, shorten check-ins when time is limited, and let people use sessions from different locations without travel time. Licensed professionals can use these benefits to support steady, goal-focused work over time.
