Available worldwide — What makes my therapy practice great is the balance between depth and accessibility. I integrate contemporary, evidence-based approaches with a reflective, holistic understanding of the person. My work is grounded in compassion, cultural sensitivity, and the belief that real change happens through awareness and emotional connection. I create a space where clients can explore all parts of themselves safely and without judgment — helping them move toward clarity, integration, and a more authentic sense of self.

I’m a dedicated Licensed Clinical Psychologist with a contemporary and holistic approach. I bring a background in behavioural research and UX from the corporate sector to my full-time private practice.
Originally from Argentina and now based in Spain, I am fluent in both Spanish and English, having worked for several years with clients and teams across the US and globally, using English as my primary working language.
My work is grounded in the understanding of the body-mind as a unified system—one that deserves care, exploration, and reverence in all its aspects. I guide clients toward greater self-understanding by helping them integrate all parts of their personality, fostering a more compassionate, less judgmental approach to life.
I work with the expat community, offering culturally sensitive support to those adapting to life away from home.
I help multicultural couples deepen their connection, strengthen their relationship, and build intimacy by creating a safe environment where they can express themselves openly and honestly.
I also support parents throughout the emotional journey of parenthood—from pregnancy and the postpartum period to the everyday challenges of raising a child. I provide a safe, compassionate space for those adjusting to life as parents, coping with postpartum depression or anxiety, or navigating unexpected experiences.
In addition, I offer clinical supervision and mentorship to other psychologists, fostering reflective practice, clinical confidence, and professional development.
