About

Carlo Draghi

Psychotherapist | Coach | Consultant

Carlo Draghi

I am a UKCP-accredited psychotherapist, EMCC-accredited coach, and organisational consultant, working with individuals, leaders, and organisations on resilience, regulation, sustainable performance, and integrative functional health approaches.

My professional background combines clinical training, organisational psychology, and senior-level corporate experience, developed over an 18-year career in the financial sector.

Before training in psychology and consulting, I worked as a Managing Director at Morgan Stanley in London (2001–2019), where I held senior leadership and management responsibilities. This experience continues to inform my understanding of high-pressure environments, decision-making, and organisational dynamics.

Professional Development

I maintain ongoing professional development in areas relevant to psychological, physiological, and organisational regulation, with particular attention to somatic awareness, embodied contact, and the use of the body as signal within relational and coaching work, including:

  • Applied breathing and respiratory regulation methods, including Buteyko-based approaches
  • Meditation practices
  • Stress regulation and resilience frameworks
  • Functional health perspectives on energy, recovery, and performance
  • Research on therapeutic applications of altered states of consciousness

Breathing and physiological work are used to support regulation, recovery, and focus, and are integrated within broader psychological and organisational practice. All professional work is conducted in accordance with relevant ethical frameworks and supervision requirements.
