Selected work
From the whole, from the part
The Dialogical Recursive Approach: a qualitative method in which the overall perspective and the analysis of individual passages put one another to the test.
How the world became
A phenomenological and systemic reading of trauma: how the world becomes different and how possibilities for choosing a future can open up again.
Di amore, presenza e rivoluzione
On therapeutic presence as a way of taking part: staying when there is no ready answer and taking responsibility for what arises in the relationship.
Tre corpi, tre forze, tre sedie
In chair work, feeling can acquire a voice and enter into dialogue with what the person thinks they ought to do. Different directions become present and can speak to one another.

Book · original edition 2018
Semplicità e complessità
Philosophy, science and Gestalt psychotherapy
Philosophy, science and psychotherapy speak different languages. In this book, I follow them as they approach the same question: how to inhabit the complexity of existence and, in the present, choose a direction towards the future.
The text reproduces the complete 2018 print edition in Italian.
