Monza
Psychotherapy in Monza, without going into Milan
I practise at via Tolomeo 10, ten minutes from the station. Anxiety, panic attacks, stress and couple difficulties. The same fee as at the Milan practices.
Why Monza
Getting help where you live
Many of the people I see in Monza spend their day in Milan: forty minutes on the train each way, five days a week.
Adding an appointment in the centre to a day like that means, in practice, not going. A practice near home is not a logistical detail — it is the difference between starting and postponing.
Why Milan
And why some choose the opposite
Some people prefer the reverse, for a specific reason: Monza is a city where circles overlap. Colleagues, neighbours, parents from the same class.
For some that is reason enough to choose Milan, or a video call. It is a reasonable concern and it does not need explaining — you simply pick the location.
Confidentiality
Professional secrecy covers the fact of your being in therapy at all.
It is neither a courtesy nor a policy of the practice: for a psychologist in Italy it is a legal obligation, set out in article 622 of the Criminal Code and articles 11–15 of the professional code of conduct.
It covers what is said in session and that sessions exist. If a family member calls, they receive neither confirmation nor denial. The exceptions are few and defined by law, and the main one is your own written consent.
The via Tolomeo practice has no receptionist and shares no waiting room with other businesses. Appointments are arranged in advance, which also means nobody runs into anybody by chance.
Anxiety and panic attacks
The most frequent reason people write to me. Anxiety that will not switch off in the evening, a first attack somewhere unremarkable, and then the perimeter tightening: first the train, then the ring road, then queues.
For a commuter this is particularly expensive, because the thing being avoided is the same thing needed every day.
Stress and burnout
Brianza is built on family firms and businesses where work and family do not sit in separate rooms. When your business partner is also your brother, or the company is your father's, switching off is not a matter of hours.
The signal that usually orients things is what happens on holiday: if a week away loosens something, the picture resembles burnout.
Couple difficulties
Couples where one commutes daily and the other does not, couples who work together, couples living a few kilometres from both sets of parents and feeling the weight of it.
Couple sessions last sixty minutes and cost €130. Where it helps, they can alternate with individual sessions.
Trauma and its aftermath
What has a date and what does not. You do not need a clear memory to begin, and it does not need to have been something severe: what counts is the effect it had.
In practice
Via Tolomeo 10, ten minutes from the station
The practice is in a quiet area, walkable from Monza station and straightforward to reach by car — street parking without particular difficulty.
I work here on fixed days. Appointments are arranged by WhatsApp or email, usually a few days ahead.
The first step
A first session is there to work out together what is going on
It lasts forty-five minutes and commits you to nothing. I ask the questions — you do not need to arrive prepared, and you do not need to know where to begin.

Fees and payment
Individual €100 for forty-five minutes, couples €130 for sixty. Identical in Monza, at both Milan practices, in Cernusco sul Naviglio and online. Payment at the end of each session, by cash, bank transfer or card; a receipt is always issued.
Before you come
The first session is a full session: forty-five minutes to understand what we are dealing with. You do not need to arrive prepared — I ask the questions — and it carries no obligation to continue.
Arranging it
WhatsApp is quickest, though email is fine too. I reply personally, usually within 24 hours.
