About me

My education in psychology includes a degree, two masters (Cognitive neuroscience and Health psychology) and finally a doctorate by the University of Granada (Spain). I complement this with specific courses and activities in those aspects of my job that I find important and useful at every given time, as well as independent education by the study of original texts from a diversity of official psychological schools of thoughts and authors of current relevance.

A part of my education consisted on scientific research of the human mind and brain. If you wish to know more about this, here you can see some of the works in which I have participated:

In my practice I apply not only specific knowledge about therapy, but I can also make use of the accumulated scientific knowledge about the functioning of the mind and brain.

My education has also helped me to train communicative abilities. The doctorate included also training as a university lecturer, which included teaching future psychologists at the Faculty of Psychology of the University of Granada. This together with presentations in scientific conferences, invited speeches, as well as several internships abroad have helped me learn to adapt to the person I have in front of me, express myself in a common language without losing the content that I want to convey, and even if it is not always a fun conversation, learn to value the interaction between human beings with the shared goal of personal growth.

Overall, more than following a particular technique or school, my goal is to understand the human psyche and apply this knowledge to help each person in the way more suitable in each case, using for this purpose knowledge and techniques from different psychological schools with prestige and recognition. Apart from my years of experience as a therapist, my education makes it easier for me to communicate with people, facilitating a good result.

At ClearMind, I address a wide range of emotional and mental health issues, including stress, anxiety, depression, addictions and mood disorders. I use evidence-based therapeutic approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and solution-focused brief therapy, tailoring them to the specific needs of each client.
