Riccardo Caboni

I am an internationally educated registered clinical counsellor, fully licensed as an Italian Clinical Psychologist. My specializations lie in the strategic integrated brief approach (solutions-focused) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). With nearly 13 years of extensive experience in the clinical field, I have developed a person-centred approach, tailoring psychotherapy plans based on each individual’s unique needs, personality, and motivation.

Throughout my career, every person I have helped has offered me the opportunity to embark on a unique journey into their life and soul. I firmly believe that for counselling to be successful, they must possess four key characteristics: mutual selection between counsellor and client, genuine interactions without judgment or labels, respect for differences and the opportunity to learn from them, and authenticity, allowing both parties to express themselves genuinely at various moments in life.

I share my technical tools and knowledge with clients, as I believe there is no relationship without mutual exchange. In the first session, I typically aim to understand the main problem negatively affecting the client’s life. From there, I provide a clear picture of the situation and what we can do together to start the healing process.

I support the imperfection and compassion inherent in the human experience, recognizing that everyone needs love and the capacity to be compassionate. I aim to create a therapeutic environment where clients feel valued and understood, fostering growth and healing through empathy and respect.
