About me

I’m a multi-lingual Psychotherapist with more than 20 years of clinical experience in providing 1:1 and group therapy in different hospitals, as well as for other public and private organizations, with the objective of improving the mental health of my patients in Barcelona and London.

My approach

The goal of psychotherapy is to be able to understand and manage suffering and personal difficulties in order to live better. Imagine that mental health is like a house that must have a good foundation, good main walls and a solid roof.

¿How does a psychotherapeutic process with adults work?

It is very important at the beginning of the sessions that we both have the feeling that I have understood everything present and past that is relevant to be able to understand what the current situation is and what has been the personal and emotional journey to get here.

It would therefore be necessary to do some first sessions, often from 2 to 4, to carry out this first stage of assessment with the commitment from my part to give feedback on the things that have been discussed. This feedback is an explanation in which I will formulate my understanding of what has been explained to me in terms of patterns that may be contributing to a particular emotional experience or symptoms.

The assessment process does not have to commit to begin with psychotherapy. It will be necessary to assess by both parties if we feel that it is necessary to carry it out. If so, it would be necessary to see what goals we would like to achieve in order to be able to check every now and then if we are achieving what we wanted.

¿How does a psychotherapeutic process work with children and adolescents?

In the case of children and adolescents, the process begins with a visit to their parents or caregivers so that they can explain everything what seems relevant to them about the history and current situation of their sons or daughters.

Once this first meeting has taken place, the child or adolescent is visited during the first sessions, between 2 and 4, in order to understand what their current situation is and what theirsignificant experiences have been like throughout their vital development. At the point where we feel that I have understood everything that is necessary, I would explain my understanding of what could be done to improve the discomfort that one may be experiencing.

Lastly, parents or caregivers would be notified again to report on the initial assessment process. These initial interviews do not have to commit to beginning with a psychotherapeutic process. In the event that everyone agreed, the process would begin trying to establish from the outset what objectives they would like to achieve and to be able to review whether they are being achieved.

After the initial process, visits are made periodically with the parents or caregivers to report on the evolution of the adolescent child.

Understand, give meaning and face difficulties in order to improve life.
