About me

I am a licensed psychologist with more than 15 years of clinical experience. I hold a Master’s degree in Gestalt Psychotherapy from Universidad Central de Chile and Centro Gestalt Santiago. I also completed postgraduate training in Constructivist and Systemic Therapy with a Gender Perspective at the University of Barcelona and in Group Psychotherapy at Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. In addition, I earned a university diploma in Psychodrama from Universidad de Chile and have trained in meditation practices in India and Nepal. Throughout my professional journey, I’ve worked with individuals and groups in diverse clinical and cultural contexts. I'm originally from Uruguay, but I have lived and studied in countries such as Chile and India. My multicultural background has enriched my practice, allowing me to connect with people from different contexts and cultures in a respectful and attuned way. I’m committed to creating a therapeutic space that values emotional expression, personal meaning, and authentic connection.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Gestalt therapyRecommended for those who want to focus on the present and take responsibility for their feelings and actions to promote personal growth.
Somatic experiencingRecommended for those who want to use the mind-body connection to address the effects of trauma and restore natural regulation of the nervous system.
Systemic therapyRecommended for those who want to understand how their relationships and environments influence their behavior and emotions, particularly within family or organizational systems.

My therapeutic orientation is rooted in the humanistic field, specifically in the Gestalt therapy model. Broadly speaking, this means that therapy is not only aimed at addressing the specific issue that the client brings, but also at supporting a fuller development of their abilities and potential. Gestalt therapy focuses on the present moment and seeks to expand the person’s awareness of themselves and their environment, helping them recognize aspects that may be limiting or hindering their personal growth.

In this process, I give special importance to the body, which plays a central role in recognizing, regulating, and anchoring emotional experience. I use experiential tools and techniques, including body awareness, guided imagery, dramatization, dream work, relaxation techniques, and expressive methods that allow the person to connect more deeply with their inner experience.

Additionally, I integrate the Holistic Approach to Health and Illness (EHSE) developed by Dr. Adriana Schnake to better understand and address physical symptoms that may be present during the therapeutic process. I also consider it an ethical commitment to incorporate a gender perspective into my work. This means being attentive to experiences of discomfort or suffering that may be related to gender-based violence or societal expectations, making such dynamics visible and open to exploration in a safe environment.

Throughout the therapeutic journey, I integrate various resources and adapt them to the unique needs, rhythm, and moment of each person. I believe psychotherapy is a space of genuine encounter between two people—a unique connection that can become a healing relationship. It is a non-linear path of personal growth, self-discovery, and deepening awareness. A path that can lead the person to recognize their potential and find their own way to authenticity.

If you feel called to walk this path, I invite you to explore it together. And if you have any questions, feel free to write to me—I’d be happy to tell you more.
