Her background includes many years supporting adults through divorce, caregiver stress, bereavement, and transitions tied to aging or health concerns. People who choose her work with her on issues like blended family dynamics, family of origin patterns, control or anger problems, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
She also assists those facing hospice and end-of-life decisions and the complex feelings that come with caregiving. Dr. Visaggi offers sessions in English and is available to international clients.

Practical approaches for online parenting and life work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's view. It helps people feel heard and shapes goals around what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and introduces simple exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Mindfulness Therapy teaches short attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That can mean trying one approach for a few sessions and then adjusting based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers practical options for busy parents and adults. Video calls permit face-to-face conversation when visual cues are helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quiet check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter touchpoints, coaching-style check-ins, and ongoing support between scheduled sessions. Together these formats make it easier to keep momentum and fit therapy into a changing schedule.
