Writing Therapy

Paths of awareness through words

Jessica Policarpo

About Me

I work with words as a creative and relational space. Over time, I have discovered how writing can become listening, care, and transformation. Today I accompany people through short yet deep journeys, in which writing becomes a gentle tool to encounter oneself. I offer writing programs and workshops focused on emotional well-being and personal growth. I provide expressive and therapeutic writing courses for people going through periods of change, stress, or emotional vulnerability, with the aim of offering a safe space for listening, awareness, and processing through the written word.

The programs are designed especially for:

Each proposal is tailored to the context and the target audience.

About Me

I’m Jessica Policarpo, a bilingual English–Italian language educator with over 20 years of international experience in teaching and communication.

I hold a Degree in Foreign Languages and Literature (English and Spanish) and have lived and studied in Australia, Taiwan, Africa and now Italy. English and Italian are my native languages, and I also speak Spanish and French.

From 2015 to 2023, I worked as a Foreign Language Teacher (English and Spanish) in primary and early education. I have also taught English to children, teenagers, adults and corporate clients, focusing on conversation, grammar, exam preparation and confidence-building.

I regularly attend Cambridge and Oxford professional development webinars and training programs to stay updated with modern teaching methodologies.

What I Offer:

  • Online English lessons for children, teens and adults
  • Conversation practice and fluency building
  • Exam preparation support
  • Creative writing in English
  • Personalized learning plans
  • Confidence-focused communication training

My teaching approach is interactive, supportive and culturally aware. I create a safe and motivating environment where students feel comfortable expressing themselves and improving naturally.

The programs are offered exclusively in 4-session cycles to ensure continuity and depth.
