Psychotherapy for Individuals & Couples+
BEYOND TALK THERAPY.
Depth-Oriented, Experiential, Expansive.
I currently offer sessions in my Oakland office on Tuesdays, in- person Ecotherapy for clients in the East Bay and via telehealth throughout CA and TX.
Welcome!
I'm Giulia — a licensed psychotherapist (LMFT) and the founder of Wildly Connected Therapy.
This practice was born from both a personal and professional longing: to create a space grounded in inclusivity and justice, where complexity is welcome, and belonging is never conditional on shrinking who you are.
My work is grounded in psychodynamic therapy and enriched by specialized training in EMDR, Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), Ecotherapy, and parts work (IFS-informed)—approaches that help us move beyond insight into felt, embodied change.
Together, we may explore not only symptom relief, but deeper questions of meaning, identity, authenticity, aliveness, and belonging.

AN INEGRATIVE & DEPTH-ORIENTED APPROACH
Grounded in psychodynamic therapy, with specialized trainings an certificaions in:
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
- Ketamine-Assisted EMDR (KA-EMDR)
- Ketamine- Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)
- Ecotherapy (also known as Nature-Based Therapy)
- Emotionally Focused Couple's Therapy (EFT)
- Parts work (IFS-informed)
and other evidence-based modalities
I believe many of the patterns that cause us pain — anxiety, self-criticism, perfectionism, people-pleasing, disconnection — are ways our systems have learned to survive and adapt to difficult experiences.
Rather than pathologizing what feels hard, I stay curious about what happened to you — and what helped you adapt and survive it.
As an ecotherapist, I often bring the therapeutic process outdoors, inviting nature and the more-than-human world into our sessions. My own lived experience continues to shape how I show up in the room, guided by values of inclusivity, community care, and collective liberation.
I believe healing isn't about becoming someone new. It's about reclaiming the lost, hidden, or disconnected parts of ourselves, and learning to live in greater alignment with who we already are.
