About me

Since the beginning of graduation my interest has been focused on psychoanalytic theory to support my listening and welcome each one who came to me in search of a space to put their questions. Since then I have participated in groups and courses with this look. I have a postgraduate degree in eating disorders, which gave me a vision of how there is no possibility of detaching the subject from the social, but, taking into account that each one has a history that particularizes him/her. Today I am doing another postgraduate in toxicomanies and addictions. In addition, I am member of the Forum of the Lacanian field. I work in the clinic, but I’ve already had a brief experience attending in a hospital with oncological patients, which still makes me think about how each one notice and deal with the nuances of life.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Lacanian PsychoanalysisRecommended for those who want to explore the unconscious mind through the lens of language and desire, focusing on understanding deeper motivations.
PsychoanalysisRecommended for those who want to explore how their unconscious mind and early experiences affect their current behaviors and feelings.
Psychotherapy Recommended for those who want to work through emotional or mental health challenges by talking with a trained psychotherapist.
The psychoanalysis process usually begins with one session per week, but it depends on the case and the conditions of each person. It’s confidential, so it’s an environment for you feel comfortable bringing up your questions. In each session you can bring up whatever you want to talk about and the treatment will begin based on that. My job is to assist in this process, leading the treatment and not the patient. Therefore, the psychoanalysis provides a space for building knowledge that concerns you. I usually propose a first meeting to listen to you and know a little about your story, answer any questions you may have and talk about how I work, arranging a time during the week to be yours.
