Dr. Enzo Daniele Finore has a doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology from William James College (formerly  Massachusetts School of Professional Psychology). His primary areas of expertise are health psychology and behavioral medicine, with particular interest in psycho-dermatology, pain management and migraines, among others. He utilizes an integrative psychotherapy approach, influenced primarily by psychodynamic principles, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), motivational interviewing (MI), mind-body interactions, and cross-cultural perspectives. 


He is particularly interested in the role of thought processes, feelings, and behaviors on a variety of anxiety and depressive conditions, particularly in the context of relationship dynamics. He often uses clinical hypnosis and biofeedback in his work to address specific maladaptive behaviors, in particular those associated with medical problems. Dr. Finore received his first doctoral degree in Clinical and Community Psychology from Universita' di Roma “La Sapienza,” and worked for five years at the Istituto Dermopatico dell’Immacolata, a hospital in Italy that specializes in the treatment of skin disorders. At this facility, he was involved in innovative research focusing on the role of psychological factors on skin conditions.

Doctor Finore is currently a Supervisor for Doctoral students in the clinical training at Boston Behavioral Medicine, as well as a Mentor in Biofeedback at the Bedford Veterans Administration Medical Center.
