About me

I'm Maria Mercedes Gettar (she/her). I am based between Berlin and Buenos Aires and currently work exclusively online, as I regularly travel between both cities.
I am a psychologist who is dedicated to providing thoughtful and affirming support to members of the LGBTQ+ community, those practicing non-monogamy, and anyone exploring diverse ways of relating and connecting.
I strive to make my practice a safe space, designed so that each person can express themselves and explore their experiences without fear of judgment, in an environment of respect, care and freedom.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Clinical psychologyRecommended for those who need help with diagnosing and treating more complex mental health issues, often involving assessments and evidence-based treatments.
Couples therapySupport for couples working through problems and who want to gain insight into the relational dynamics that contribute to the problem.
PsychoanalysisRecommended for those who want to explore how their unconscious mind and early experiences affect their current behaviors and feelings.
Sex therapyRecommended for individuals or couples who want help improving their sex life, intimacy, or overcoming sexual issues in a supportive environment.

My practice is based on psychoanalysis, a discipline that deeply values the uniqueness of each person. Instead of applying pre-established solutions, psychoanalysis proposes an attentive, respectful and non-judgmental listening that allows each person to discover their own answers through words. I accompany people who identify as queer, BDSM/kink practitioners, non-monogamous, polyamorous, sex workers, trauma survivors, or those who wish to explore these issues in a respectful and non-judgmental space. I don't believe that labels define people; I am open to you whether you fall into these categories or not. Using an intersectional feminist approach and active listening based on dialogue, my goal is to help you identify patterns that may be limiting your relationship with yourself and/or your attachments, and to guide you in reconnecting with your authentic needs and desires. In each session I am committed to listening without imposing interpretations, respecting your time, your rhythm and your needs. I do not work from a single model of "healing" but trust that the therapeutic process is unique to each story and can open pathways to a freer, more conscious and authentic life.
