With a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology, specializing in Art Therapy, Patricia has a profound understanding of the therapeutic potential of creative expression. Her academic journey, which began in her hometown of Turin, Italy, laid the foundation for a career dedicated to the intersection of psychology, art, and healing. 

Upon completing her degree, Patricia moved to London, where she initially pursued a career as a primary school teacher. Her time in the classroom further fueled her passion for art therapy as she witnessed firsthand the transformative power of artistic activities in nurturing emotional well-being and fostering self-expression among her students.

By shedding light on the invisible battles of MS through her art, she hopes to foster a deeper connection between individuals, promote empathy, and ultimately, inspire positive change.
