(MSc)

I’m a psychotherapist based in London, dedicated to supporting individuals and couples as they navigate life’s challenges, build resilience, and work toward emotional well-being. My work is grounded in compassion, empathy, and the conviction that everyone has the potential for growth and change when provided with the right support.

 

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with clients from diverse cultural and personal backgrounds. Whether someone is struggling with anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, or wants to understand themselves better, my goal is to offer a safe and non-judgmental space where they can explore their experiences freely and at their own pace.

 

My professional journey began in Buenos Aires, where I completed my degree in psychology. Since then, life and work have taken me across continents—to Madrid and eventually to London—shaping both my perspective and my practice. Along the way, I’ve collaborated with various organisations, supported individuals facing a wide range of challenges, and established a private practice where I now work with clients one-on-one and in couples therapy.

 

I employ an integrative, humanistic approach that also draws on various therapeutic modalities, tailoring them to each client’s specific needs. Some of the methods I use include cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), narrative therapy, and mindfulness-based techniques. I view therapy as a collaborative process: my role is not to provide answers, but to help clients make sense of their experiences, discover inner resources, and find new ways to move forward.

 

A typical first session with me is about getting to know each other, understanding what brings you to therapy, and discussing how we can work together. From there, therapy can be short-term or long-term depending on your goals. For some clients, just a few sessions provide clarity and relief; for others, a more comprehensive process allows for deeper exploration and lasting change. Whatever the length, we work together to ensure the process feels safe, respectful, and empowering.

 

As someone who has lived and worked in different countries, I’m particularly sensitive to issues of identity, belonging, and cultural diversity. I offer therapy in both English and Spanish, ensuring clients can express themselves in the language they feel most comfortable with.

 

Above all, I aim to help people feel truly heard and supported. I believe therapy offers a unique space where you can step back from daily life, reflect on your experiences, and explore new ways of understanding yourself and your relationships. It’s a space where change becomes possible, not through pressure or judgment, but through genuine connection, curiosity, and care.

If you are considering psychotherapy but do not know where to start, a free initial consultation is the perfect first step. It will allow you to explore your options, ask questions, and feel more confident about taking the first step towards your well-being.

It is a 30-minute, completely free meeting with a Mental Health specialist that does not obligate you to anything.

Potential benefits of a free initial consultation

During this first session: potential clients have the chance to learn more about you and your approach before agreeing to work together.

Offering a free consultation will help you build trust with the client. It shows them that you want to give them a chance to make sure you are the right person to help them before they move forward. Additionally, you should also be confident that you can support your clients and that the client has problems that you can help them cope with. Also, you can avoid any ethical difficult situations about charging a client for a session in which you choose not to proceed based on fit.

We've found that people are more likely to proceed with therapy after a free consultation, as it lowers the barrier to starting the process. Many people starting therapy are apprehensive about the unknown, even if they've had sessions before. Our culture associates a "risk-free" mindset with free offers, helping people feel more comfortable during the initial conversation with a specialist.

Another key advantage for Specialist

Specialists offering free initial consultations will be featured prominently in our upcoming advertising campaign, giving you greater visibility.

It's important to note that the initial consultation differs from a typical therapy session:
