Hello & welcome!
I'm Lorea Urquiaga – a passionate psychologist with nine years of professional experience in different settings. I'm looking forward to getting to know you!
I am a trained psychologist (M.Sc.) with a focus on systemic therapy, organizational psychology, mindfulness & performance psychology. Over the past few years, I have worked as a psychologist with adolescents and adults.
In addition to my professional expertise, my most important values, firmly anchored in my philosophy of life, define me: curiosity, courage, joy of life, and an open heart.
In my work, the focus is always on the person – with all their challenges, strengths, and opportunities for growth.
Creating a psychological safe space with a good therapeutical relationship is essential. A place where people feel safe to open up without being judged.
My goal is to support people in finding their own answers, developing new perspectives, and creating lasting change.
I totally enjoy accompanying my clients on this journey.
