Expert in Pediatric psychology, Prenatal and Perinatal Development
My research project intends to verify one specific supportive care treatment for parental competence in pregnancy at risk.
These are conditions once considered atypical, but they are increasingly growing today, in which the construction of parental competence can be compromised by stress conditions, hyper-arousal and the alteration of self-concept, experienced by mothers and fathers who live this risk condition. This longitudinal study, through some narrative interviews and counseling meetings, aims to support the couples from prenatal to postnatal.
My scientific interests are:
- Psycho-evolutionary outcomes in Medically Assisted Reproduction
- Parental competence in pregnancy at risk.
- Tipical and Atypical Development
