Counseling and psychological support

Persons who intend to undergo the genetic test are accompanied by us in a path, through several meetings and interviews with specialized professionals. The purpose of the preliminary sessions is to ensure that the potential implications of one’s genetic state are fully understood, that the choice is made in full awareness and that persons are prepared to receive a positive result of the test.  In addition to pre-test counseling, we also provide a specific psychological support over time to patients and caregivers.
