From Wounded Souls to Smiles with Purpose

It has been a great honor to lead this incredible team at APSIVIDA Integrated Psychology, the clinic I founded together with my wife, Michele, with the purpose of transforming lives.

If today we have reached a level of excellence and maturity in humanized care, it is not only the result of strategic direction, but because each member of this team has given their talent and love to a cause I have always believed in and invested in.

On Google, we have received 329 reviews — true declarations of love. For me, this goes far beyond numbers: these are living stories of transformation and new beginnings for each person who was once part of our clinic. Today, Michele and I have friends who started as patients and have blossomed through psychotherapy sessions. Thousands of people have been touched and healed through this space, and I am grateful to God for allowing us to participate in a greater purpose: love.

At the same time, we have trained leaders who were once our psychologists, neuropsychologists, psychiatrists, and nutritionists, and who now apply this knowledge in hospitals, in other clinics, and some have even founded their own practices — because, in the end, life is about leaving a legacy.

Since 2018, I have been privileged by every professional who believed in our dream and, over time, made it their own. My years of study, work, graduation, and postgraduate education in healthcare would have no meaning if I had not understood that a patient is not just a patient: they are someone’s loved one. And, as such, it is our mission to care for them as they deserve.

I am grateful to God, to my wife, to my family, and to my team — without you, none of this would be possible. My previous experience directing strategies for clinics and franchises taught me something often overlooked: excellent care should not see a person as a financial package, but as a human soul. And that’s exactly what it’s about: caring for each patient as if they were a member of my own family.

Now, approaching 50 years old, I feel it is time to expand this chapter of my life, caring not only for wounded souls, but also for the smiles of these people — their soul and their face.

Yes, by the mercy of God and the breath He grants me every morning, I am also walking the path of dentistry, an old passion I have carried since my single years. For me, combining new and old passions is the result of living my calling intensely. I did this when I lived in France, then Japan, and now in the United States — and I continue this way, because life is far too short not to be lived with purpose.
