My name is Matteo Zumiri.
I started studying psychology out of passion 30 years ago.
It brings me joy to help people gain self-awareness, take control of their emotions, and achieve balance and serenity.
It’s a wonderful journey we can take together.
I enjoy pursuing my passions, which, in addition to psychology, include alpine skiing, spearfishing, and creative writing.

Perhaps you have wondered about the origin and meaning of this name.
I chose it with my mind, my heart, and my soul.
With my mind, because Ardenza is a literary term derived from the Latin "ardens" (ardent, burning); thus, in Italian, it means ardor, intense heat, or—in a figurative sense—the great fervor and vehemence of a feeling.
With my heart because Ardenza is also the name of a neighborhood—for me, the most beautiful one—in the city where I was born and raised: Livorno, in the region of Tuscany.
With my soul because, through my therapy, I would like to help rekindle long-dormant passions, forgotten ardor, and hopes that time has faded. And I would like to bring you back home, whatever that means to you.
