About me

I began my education in counseling, therapy, and coaching back in 2016. Since then, I have continued to deepen my knowledge through specialized trainings and courses offered by both national and international professional centers and institutes. Over time, my curiosity about psychology, along with a guiding sense of purpose, have naturally led me to see counseling and therapy not simply as a profession, but as my true vocation.

Lived experiences abroad have also played an important role in shaping both my personal and professional path. These experiences have allowed me to develop a deeper understanding of the emotional and practical challenges that expatriates often face.

Finally, being able to work in different languages with international clients is something that has brought a profound meaning to my practice throughtout the years, and has inspired me to grow and expand constantly my professional skills.

Mi Enfoque:
¿Buscas un espacio para pausar y conocerte mejor?
Ofrezco un acompañamiento empático y personalizado, basado en los principios de la logoterapia y el análisis existencial (LTEA), así como en la terapia racional emotiva conductual (TREC) y la terapia de aceptación y compromiso (ACT). Primero comprenderemos tu contexto actual y tus desafíos. Después, trabajaremos en los patrones de pensamiento, emoción y conducta que te limitan, transformando cada problema en una oportunidad de crecimiento.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
ACT: Acceptance and commitment therapyRecommended for those who want to stop fighting negative thoughts and learn how to live with more acceptance and focus on what really matters in life.

LogotherapyRecommended for those who are searching for meaning and purpose in life to guide their healing process.

Needing a space to slow down and get to know yourself better?

My approach to working with clients is individualized, aiming for a profound understanding of each person’s history, experiences and perspectives. I provide empathic guidance that is grounded in the principles of logotherapy and existential analysis (LTEA), RECBT and ACT. Apart from being integrative, in my approach I also care about being authentic and creative.

At the beginning of the process the emphasis is on understaing better your current context, coping mechanisms and challenges. From there, we explore and address the unhelpful patterns in thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, that may have been preventing you from acknowledging and realizing your goals, core values and strengths. Finally, along the process each problem is perceived not merely as an obstacle, but as an invitation to the unique path of personal discovery and growth.

Some of the areas we can explore together include: Anxiety - Burnout and stress - Intrusive thoughts and overthinking - Perfectionism and high standards - Impostor feelings - Procrastination - Navigating emotions - Grief - Relationships and breakups - Cross-cultural relationships - Assertiveness - Self-confidence - Values awareness - Authenticity and self-awareness - Life transitions - Resilience.

On ITC Platform I work with clients in both English and Spanish, and have spent several years now supporting individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds.
