About me
You might be here because something isn't sitting right — in your relationships, your emotions, or somewhere inside that's harder to name. Reaching out is rarely a small thing. It usually comes at a moment when some part of you has already started asking for attention. If you've read this far, maybe that part is ready to be heard.
I'm a Clinical Psychologist with a psychodynamic focus and a Systemic Psychotherapist (in training), originally from Spain and living internationally. I work with adults and adolescents — women, men, couples and families — often during transitions: moving countries, shifting relationships, questions of identity, or that particular kind of stuckness where you can't quite explain what's wrong, only that something is.
Together we don't just look at what's happening on the surface. We make room for what's underneath — the patterns, the roles you've learned to play, the old experiences that quietly shape how you relate, decide, and feel today. Not to dig for its own sake, but because symptoms usually make sense once you understand what they've been trying to tell you.
Alongside this, I have a particular focus on hormonal and menstrual mental health, including PMDD. For many of the women I work with, understanding the body has been the doorway to understanding the mind — but that lens belongs to a wider practice about how all of us carry our histories in our bodies and relationships.

Approach
From a systemic and psychodynamic perspective, difficulties are rarely isolated. They tend to make sense once we look at the patterns, roles, and meanings that have built up over time — often long before the current problem appeared.
Together we explore:
– the patterns that repeat in your relationships. – the beliefs quietly shaping your thoughts and emotions. – how past experiences still live in your present. – the connection between your body, your emotions, and how you act.
I also work in depth with hormonal and menstrual mental health. I've been researching Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) in collaboration with a university in Spain, and wrote my master's thesis on the experience of women navigating this diagnosis. After years of this work, one pattern is clear to me: cycles and hormones carry a real psychological weight that often goes unnamed. For people who live with this, understanding the body is frequently the first step toward understanding the mind.
Whatever brings you, the work is the same at its core — making sense of your patterns more clearly, and finding ways forward that take both mind and body into account.
Therapy with me tends to be:
– Warm, and honest where it counts. – Collaborative, and shaped around your goals. – Focused on real insight that translates into real change.
