Cultivating one's essence
in silence.
I'm Dr. Sara Faroni. I offer a protected space where vulnerability becomes strength and imperfection a path toward awareness.

Holistic & Trauma-Informed
I don't only look at the symptom but at the person as a whole. I use trauma-informed techniques so every step is safe, respectful and deeply transformative.

Mindful Presence
Through mindfulness we learn to stay with what is, without judgment. It is in this space of radical acceptance that true healing happens.

Philosophy
The art of imperfection.
"Wabi-Sabi is the beauty of things imperfect, impermanent and incomplete."
In my life and work I embrace this philosophy. I believe our scars and moments of fragility are not flaws to hide, but marks of a story lived with courage. In my practice we look for beauty in what is real, not in what is perfect.

50 minutes, in person or online. Typically weekly; sometimes biweekly.

The 20-minute introductory call is free. Subsequent fees are agreed together. In Italy, psychotherapy fees are 19% tax-deductible.

On a secure, encrypted platform. You only need a quiet space and a stable connection.
How long does a path take? expand_more
It depends on your goals. Brief support: 6–10 sessions. Longer journeys: we review direction every 2–3 months.
What's the difference between psychologist, psychotherapist and psychiatrist? expand_more
A psychologist offers assessment and support; a psychotherapist — qualified after specialisation — can treat psychopathological conditions; a psychiatrist is a physician and can prescribe medication. Often the paths integrate.
