I am a bilingual Clinical Psychologist, with more than 13 years’ experience providing effective therapy in English and Spanish, for adults, children, and adolescents. I use different therapeutic approaches, such as Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and Psychodynamic therapy, in different backgrounds and settings, including the NHS. I am an Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapist and, I am ending my training in Cognitive Analytical Therapy (CAT).
During my career I have gained experience working with people to overcome depression, anxiety, and panic attacks. I also have helped people who have experienced trauma, family problems, domestic violence, bereavement, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), behavioural problems, and attachment disorder.
