[Where to start](https://www.ceciliaaltieri.com/#paths) · [Contact](https://www.ceciliaaltieri.com/contact/) ![Cecilia Altieri sitting on a stone balustrade at dusk, a country house and clipped hedges behind her](https://www.ceciliaaltieri.com/images/home-cecilia-bridge.webp) [Who we work with ](https://www.ceciliaaltieri.com/#recognition) · [How we work ](https://www.ceciliaaltieri.com/#how-we-work) · [Services ](https://www.ceciliaaltieri.com/#paths) · [Our team ](https://www.ceciliaaltieri.com/#people) · [Notes](https://www.ceciliaaltieri.com/#resources) Who we work with ## _No two_ people arrive with the same thing ### You, on your own Something in your body won’t settle, and nothing quite explains it. A low feeling that has outlasted any reason for it. A loss you can’t set down, or a decision you’re standing in front of. ### You and your partner The same argument from every angle, and it never resolves. A distance neither of you chose. A rupture you want to come back from. ### Your family Something in the family nobody talks about. A parent or a sibling you can’t reach. A weight that seems older than you are. ### Your child Ordinary things are too much for them. Big feelings that arrive faster than words for them. A change at home that landed hardest on them. Something you can see and can’t name. If we knew how to act differently, we would. We read each of these as part of a living system, a family, a history, and look for where the strain actually sits. How we work ## Beyond the _Individual_ ### The whole picture What feels like your problem alone is usually held in place by something wider, your family, your history, the people you belong to. Every kind of work here starts by looking at the system, not only at you inside it. ### Body and mind together Not all of the work happens through words. In therapy, conversation is often where we begin. In [listening therapy](https://www.ceciliaaltieri.com/ssp/), we work through sound and how your nervous system responds to it. In [a constellation](https://www.ceciliaaltieri.com/family-constellations/), we make the system visible and work with what happens as you see and experience it. What you notice in your body is part of the information we work with. Sometimes seeing and experiencing something differently is where change begins. Four ways to welcome you ## We start _where you are_ A session, a workshop, listening therapy, or the training. We can help you find the right approach.
