Bio
Joan BHC Harris
Giovanni is a pleasure to work with. He is professional , creative, and at the same time very personal and warm to both patients and staff. He was an asset to Westchester Medical Center, and would be at any other setting.
Meredith BHC Alpert
While working with Giovanni, I had the opportunity to watch him connect with and teach patients on the unit in a unique and powerful style. Giovanni has the ability to make each of his patients feel validated, while still providing new coping skills. His empathy was felt by all of the people he treated and his presence and work has been greatly missed on the unit.

My most recent position until I was laid off with hundreds of others. I provided group therapy in all wellness domains to psychiatric inpatient teens and adults. I documented their recreational assessments and progress notes. I collaborated with my unit's treatment team and my department's staff to deliver effective programs. My job satisfaction was exceeded only by my disappointment at being laid off. My most recent position until I was laid off with hundreds of others.
