Barbara Bettetini

Barbara Bettetini is a Clinical Pedagogist® and Functional Psychomotor Therapist.

For over thirty years, she has worked in the fields of learning, emotional development, and personal growth, supporting children, adults, and educators through the delicate transitions of life and education.

She is the creator of the Fiabe per Crescere® (Emotional Growth Tales) series, educational stories designed to support emotional self-regulation, self-confidence, respect, and autonomy. Her stories combine carefully chosen language, guided imagination, and narrative rhythm, offering inner images that can be gradually internalized through relationship, repetition, and shared reading.

Barbara Bettetini is also the founder of the DislessiaKO® and Impara a Imparare® (Learn How to Learn) methods, which propose an educational approach to learning difficulties focused on core skills, cognitive and emotional resources and individual learning styles, prior to labels and formal diagnoses. Her work has contributed to pedagogical hypnosis, a set of imaginative and awareness-based tools that can be used at any age to support well-being, learning, and personal competence.

Alongside her in-person practice, she writes to make these tools accessible to a wider audience, creating texts designed to accompany educational, training, and personal growth pathways.

She hosts a podcast and a blog dedicated to Flexible Pedagogy, and regularly leads group learning experiences both online and in person.
