ABOUT ME
Nice to meet you
My interest in psychotherapy began at age 20, when I discovered the world of psychology. Over time, I specialized in applying cognitive-behavioral therapy techniques, convinced that psychotherapy can generate a profound and positive impact in people’s lives. Later, I specialized in EMDR to offer a more precise and effective approach to trauma treatment.
In my practice, I emphasize autonomy and self-awareness. I take on the role of facilitator rather than that of “the one with all the answers”. My work is grounded in current research, and I continuously update my knowledge of advances in the field.
