Katia is an experienced bilingual psychodynamic psychotherapist, specialising in both individual and couples therapy. She supports clients with a wide range of emotional and relational challenges, drawing on her years of clinical practice in private settings and at Tavistock Relationships in London, an internationally recognised centre for couple therapy training and research.

Alongside her private practice, Katia is an associate at The Practice in East Molesey and offers both face-to-face and online therapy. Fluent in English and Italian, she works with people from diverse backgrounds and cultures. Katia is also a regular guest speaker in the Department of Psychology at St Mary’s University, Twickenham.

Katia holds a Master’s degree in Individual and Couple Psychodynamic Psychotherapy and trained at Tavistock Relationships, where she specialised in Mentalisation-Based Treatment for Couples Therapy (MBT-CT). This approach is especially helpful for couples experiencing high emotional tension, conflict, or breakdowns in communication. She is also trained in working with couples considering separation or divorce, helping them reflect on the deeper causes of their difficulties and navigate this stage with clarity and compassion.

Katia’s areas of expertise include:

• Relationship difficulties & communication problems
• Breakdowns in trust & loss of intimacy
• Infidelity & jealousy
• Parenting struggles & family dynamics
• Stress, illness & ageing
• Anxiety, low mood & self-esteem

Her approach combines deep clinical insight with warmth and sensitivity, offering a safe and confidential environment where clients can feel supported. As a psychodynamic therapist, Katia works with both the conscious and unconscious aspects of relationships, helping clients explore how early relational experiences shape current patterns. Through this process, clients gain greater self-awareness, resilience, and the ability to build healthier, more authentic connections.

Katia is committed to providing an inclusive, non-judgemental space for clients of all backgrounds, cultures and sexual orientations.

Katia is a registered member of the Tavistock Relationships Association of Psychotherapists and Counsellors (TRAPC) and the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
