About me

This might be a time when you’re going through life’s ups and downs or personal challenges. You could be feeling that something is stuck or missing, or that things could be better. Or maybe you want to explore and reflect on experiences or aspects of your life. I understand those experiences deeply, and I can relate to the feelings of being stuck or in search of something more fulfilling. Therapy provides that unique space, focusing entirely on you, your growth, your well-being, and your journey.

  • Relationship issues (individuals and couples)

COUPLE'S THERAPY

Couples therapy is designed to help partners identify and untangle ineffective patterns and dynamics that may be impacting their relationship. Together, we’ll explore what is working, what isn’t, and focus on your shared goals to foster a healthier, more fulfilling connection.

I also support couples navigating neurodiverse relationships, helping partners better understand one another and build stronger communication and connection.

HOW I WORK

The therapeutic approach I practice is rooted in Humanistic psychology, which, in a nutshell, means that I value and respect your unique circumstances and that I am ready to be real and connect with you, human to human. I offer a holistic approach that considers the connection between mind and body, and I will encourage you to learn about yourself and make your own decisions.

Further information

My cultural background is Spanish. I worked internationally as a software engineer for more than a decade before I found the courage to embark on my own self-development journey, becoming a coach and then a psychotherapist. I have studied, worked, and lived in the Nordics before settling in the UK.

I understand the corporate world and the pressures that are part of it. I know how it is to move countries and adapt to different ways of working and cultures.

I welcome all cultural backgrounds into my therapeutic space. Acknowledging our differences and similarities, and those of the mainstream culture that we are part of, might prove helpful during our work together.
