About me

I’m a clinical psychologist with over 18 years of experience working with adults navigating emotional complexity, relational struggles, and significant life transitions. Many people reach out after years of trying to understand or solve things intellectually, while still feeling emotionally stuck, disconnected, or unable to move forward in certain areas of life. Many are used to functioning through responsibility, performance, or logic, while feeling emotionally disconnected underneath. Living abroad can intensify these experiences. It can impact your relationships, your sense of identity, and your emotional balance — even when, on the surface, everything seems to be working. By having lived in three countries (Argentina, Spain, and the UK), I bring a broad cultural perspective to my practice and work comfortably with clients from diverse nationalities and backgrounds.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
DBT: Dialectical Behavior Therapy Recommended for those who want to learn skills to manage intense emotions and improve their relationships, especially if they feel easily overwhelmed.
Integrative therapy Recommended for those who prefer a flexible approach that combines different therapies to meet their unique needs.
Psychodynamic therapyRecommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.
My approach is warm, reflective and grounded in depth-oriented psychotherapy. I offer a space where we can take time to understand what is happening beneath the surface, rather than focusing only on immediate solutions. Together, we explore emotional patterns, relational dynamics, and personal history to make sense of your current experience. This process allows for deeper, more lasting change — not just symptom relief. I work best with people who are open to reflecting on themselves and willing to engage in a consistent therapeutic process. Along the way you’ll find clarity, grounding, and a space where your emotional world makes sense.
