About me

I'm a psychologist and psychotherapist living in Berlin. After several years of working and studying in Santiago de Chile, I've come to Europe to work with people who come from different parts of the world and are seeking therapeutic help. I work in English and/or Spanish. I believe the quality of our lives has to do with the quality of our relationships or interpersonal interactions. I specialize in helping others cultivate better relationships in all areas of life, approaching the relational pattern in your life that might keep you in a frustrating or hurtful dynamic. At times, the root cause of our day to day problems or issues are very much connected with the quality of our relationships; I specialize in helping you identify and assessing the connection between your current situation and your relational style. ESPAÑOL: Soy psicóloga y terapeuta psicodinámica viviendo en Berlin. Después de varios años de estudio y trabajo en Santiago de Chile, vine a Europa a trabajar con personas de todas partes del mundo. Me especializo en ayudar a otros a cultivar mejores relaciones interpersonales, en todas areas de la vida. El trabajo terapéutico tendría que ver con abordar el patron relacional que se repite en tu historia para lograr un mayor entendimiento de ti mismo y así mejorar tu bienestar general. La calidad de nuestras relaciones interpersonales tiene una gran influencia en la calidad de nuestras vidas y en nuestro día a día. Por eso, el identificar y asesorar nuestra forma de relacionarnos, nos permitirá llevar una vida mejor. Hablo y trabajo en Inglés o Español.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Psychodynamic therapyRecommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.
ENGLISH: Therapy takes place in a compassionate space where a person can feel safe to express themselves freely. I work from a psychodynamic approach, where personal goals and the possibilities of reaching them can be analyzed. Therapy would focus on identifying and reinforcing your personal abilities, but also on identifying possible obstacles or ineffective behavioral patterns that may be preventing you from achieving personal wants and needs. 50 min sessions ESPAÑOL: La terapia ocurre en un espacio seguro y contenedor, permitiendo que la persona se pueda expresar libremente. Trabajo desde un enfoque psicodinámico, donde se explora en la vida de la persona y se analizan objetivos personales y las posibilidades de alcanzarlos. La terapia se centraría en identificar y reforzar habilidades personales, pero también en identificar posibles obstáculos o patrones de comportamiento ineficaces que pueden estar impidiendo alcanzar objetivos. 50 min sessions
