My name is Elena Venuti, psychologist and psychotherapist. I was born in Udine in 1976, and I knew that I wanted to be a psychologist since I was a teenager. I was graduated in Padua in 2002 and after finishing my internship I came to Spain, to Granada, to do volunteer work.

When I moved to Barcelona I studied the Master in Conflict Management and Resolution at the University of Barcelona, ​​which has allowed me to improve communication techniques and practice the tools of Systemic Psychology in the field of human relations.

For many years I have worked with children, teenagers and adults, being dedicated above all to education and social projects.

But I always wanted to be a psychotherapist and when I felt that I had grown as a person and had matured a lot of experience, I studied the Master in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy at the University of Girona. In this way, I have been able to delve into psychotherapeutic theory and practice, through the teaching of classical psychoanalysis and the most contemporary currents of psychoanalytic psychotherapy. At the same time, I have started my path of personal analysis with a Didactic Psychotherapist from the Association of Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy of Catalonia, with whom I continue to work, because, as S. Freud said: “Being totally honest with yourself is a good exercise”.

I consider the supervisory work and the process of self-knowledge as an integral part of the therapeutic profession, since I believe that only from authenticity and humility you can find the others and help them discover their truth.

Entering IPITIA has given me the opportunity to meet a team of highly prepared, open and motivated therapists. Every day I find this as a very enriching experience.
