I offer a safe place to work with the perspective that psychoanalytic therapy can help us leave up to life. This means being able to look and analyze certain aspects of life that no longer make sense to keep.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
PsychoanalysisRecommended for those who want to explore how their unconscious mind and early experiences affect their current behaviors and feelings.
Psychodynamic therapyRecommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.
Psychotherapy Recommended for those who want to work through emotional or mental health challenges by talking with a trained psychotherapist.
My approach is mainly based on Psychodynamic therapy, where you essentially begins to speak, and through free association, the work unfolds. I believe that through empathy and attentive listening, you start to feel safe and free to talk about your feelings, traumas, suffering, and anxieties. Through these contents that are accessed, it becomes possible for you to position yourself in relation to them. This allows you to take on the role of an agent in your own life, able to choose what do you want for yourself. As Freud once said, 'If we cannot see clearly, at least let us see the darkness better'.
