Adults and Couples

In the therapeutic space, I like to work from an eclectic approach, incorporating different approaches from various focal points that I have been learning through my trainings. Much of the therapeutic work for me is based on the relationship between the therapist (me) and my clients/patients and the integration of mixed techniques, fostering a safe, open, curious and flexible space for growth.

In the individual therapeutic space I accompany you to work on interpersonal relationships, identity and body image. In couples therapy, I support them in conflict resolution and coexistence.
