""I love NVC because it supports in finding a deep connection with oneself from which to be in a reciprocal relationship with others and in groups."

I began my journey of growth and awareness on the topic of relationships and conflict at the age of 25 through a body-based approach called “Normodnamica.” I discovered CNV in 2006 with Vilma Costetti while searching for a supportive practical approach to aligning thought, speech and action. How wonderful was that discovery! I discovered CNV in 2006 with Vilma Costetti while searching for a supportive practical approach to aligning thought, speech and action.

I love to offer counseling and facilitation to support the harmonious development of individuals, groups and organizations to cross conflict and support dialogue. I certified with CNVC in 2018 and since that date I have been collaborating with different organizations to spread Nonviolent Communication in Italy.

“My work is based on the understanding that the personal, relational and systemic planes are interconnected and that communication and empathy play an important role in crossing conflicts. 
In my experience, I have also seen that to facilitate the connection of needs, it is very helpful to be aware of the signals our bodies send. Without this understanding, there is a risk that needs are only contacted on an intellectual level, and this does not accompany in that space of connection that allows shared strategies to emerge. If we really want to activate peace processes and traverse conflicts together, we need deep contact with the vulnerability and needs of all those involved.”

I am co-founder of the ARPA project to spread NVC together with colleagues Anna Bassi, Rossana Monica and Petra Quast. 
I collaborate with the online platform artedeldialogue and the Centro Esserci in Reggio Emilia. 
I am president of the Solaris Association, which focuses on developing awareness in relationships by making the Normodinamica and Nonviolent Communication approaches interact.

I serve as a facilitator and lead training experiences embedded in NVC in a variety of settings: educational and social-health with teachers and educators, corporate staff, clinicians, psychologists, social workers, counselors and volunteers. 
I provide training, counseling, and individual and group facilitation:

  • Projects in schools of all levels for teachers, students, and all school personnel
  • Educational and social-health contexts
  • Businesses
  • Nonprofit world
  • Organizations in general
  • Couples and families
  • Pregnant women
  • Parents
“My intention is to support people from all walks of life through activities, trainings and meetings both individually and in groups. I also offer one-on-one sessions to help self-connection in situations of challenge, pain, or concern in order to use empathy in the direction of coherent actions in the direction of serving life and needs.”
