As a trained clinical psychologist, I offer focused psychodynamic psychotherapy. Using this approach, I explore and address dysfunctional relational patterns, unconscious conflicts, and difficulties regulating impulses and/or emotions or establishing self-esteem, among other issues. This type of psychotherapy not only promotes emotional well-being but also self-awareness.
I have also undertaken continuous training in cognitive behavioural therapy, whose techniques enable me to address automatic beliefs and thoughts that cause emotional distress and trigger problematic behaviour.
But beyond the approaches I have been trained in, there are two things I consider essential in therapy: having clear and transparent goals that make sense not only to me but also to my clients, and building a solid relationship with them in which they feel comfortable, free to open up, and supported. For me psychotherapy is not just a set of techniques; it is above all a human bond that helps to heal and change.
