Psychiatry / Counselling
Psychiatry and counseling with professionals who have special knowledge and experience of the challenges facing expat families, cleft lip and palate issues and non traditional family structures.
Family Life Counselling
Family therapy provides a forum for all family members to have a voice in discussing and improving family dynamics. Addressing the family unit as the object of therapy rather than identifying one individual as “the patient” improves family cohesion, the ability to actively listen, and teaches skills for all other relationships.
Nutrition
Nutrition during a child’s first 1000 days set him up for life. It can determine how tall he’ll grow, how intelligent he will be, how strong his bones are and lower his risk for future illnesses like diabetes and obesity. This important time starts in pregnancy, and continues until they are 2 years of age, way after first foods are introduced. This is why it is so important that mum eats well during pregnancy and breastfeeding. And that we offer our little ones a healthy, balanced diet once they start to eat. We are here to help guide you through these times and help you choose the best foods for you and your child. Even on those days when only chocolate can provide the answer.
Coaching
Coaching is for people who are looking for training and guidance from trained professionals for professional or personal development. There are different coaching methods which can apply to supporting clients in any human endeavor, ranging from their concerns in health, personal, professional, sport, social, family, political, spiritual dimensions, et.c
Addiction counselling
Substance abuse disorders such as alcoholism or drug addiction, and behavioral disorders, including gambling and internet addictions, only get worse if left untreated or addressed by an addiction specialist. Unfortunately, expats and expat youths are especially vulnerable due to the lack of social support, travel demands and stressors in work place or school. Lack of knowledge of resources and where to get help further compound the difficulties when dealing with addictions. Specialists in the field addictions and behavioral disorders help English-speaking and expat individuals and families with the expert resources, treatment options and residential and outpatient treatment services throughout Italy and Europe.
Cleft Lip and Palate Counselor
A trained professional who can help with post-diagnosis/prenatal counselling for babies with cleft lip and palate issues. The consultant can put together a care plan, help parents learn how to dialogue with your health team, talk about fears and realities.
