with an emphasis in Couples and Family Therapy. He will graduate in May of 2025.
Giancarlo has several years of experience working with young children and families of Brookline
and Boston. He has always wanted to be a counselor, but his years of teaching preschool
showed him his interest in working with families with children of all ages.

Giancarlo joined MEDA in the Fall of 2024 as a graduate clinical intern. He is passionate about
working with underserved populations, such as the LGBT+ community and low-income
individuals and households. He is interested in learning to help individuals recover from various
eating disorders with a multidimensional approach that targets deconstructing biases, fostering
radical acceptance, and utilizing support systems through cognitive-behavioral therapies, family
systems therapy, psychotherapy, and existential therapy.
