Abstract
This paper aims to investigate the functions of the Counseling Center “M. Cesaro” at the University of Salerno (Italy). We begin with the valuable contribution of Professor Pina Boggi Cavallo, focusing on her involvement in its establishment and her function as a mother sufficiently good (Winnicott, Through Paediatrics to psycho-analysis. Tavistock Publications, London [trad. it. Dalla pediatria alla psicoanalisi, Martinelli, Firenze, 1975], 1958; Play and reality.
