Licensed Abroad
I am an Integrative psychologist, originally from Barcelona, Spain. I find most effective to approach the therapeutic process from multiple layers, mentally, emotionally and sometimes physically. I love to support people to improve their lives, I am specialised in emotional management, self esteem, life transitions, anxiety, stress management, relationships, authenticity and self image. With nearly a decade of experience, I have worked in a wide range of fields from being a researcher in a Neuroscience Lab, to coaching and education in a Business School, to now working privately in my own clinic. I arrived to Israel 7 years ago because of artistic reasons, and I created my life here. I'm based in Ein Hod (Haifa) with a clinic in Tel Aviv as well.
I help people to get more connected with themselves, more in contact with their deepest truth. I support them through a mind-body approach to access more authenticity, calmness, confidence, balance and joy in their lives.
The kind of people that come are usually in the fields of Management, Education, Health, Arts, and Business. You are very welcome to reach out no matter which field you are in. :)
I also have a studio in Ein Hod where I do private sessions in photo and movement therapy. And, I am also avaiable for Movement-based transformational workshops.

Body-Mind PsychotherapyBody-mind psychotherapy is an integrative approach to psychological treatment that draws from both psychotherapeutic and somatic/body-based approaches. It emphasizes the interconnection between physical, emotional, cognitive and spiritual aspects of being. This approach seeks to help individuals explore how physical sensations, emotions, thoughts and beliefs influence their behavior and well-being. Through this exploration, individuals can gain insight into how the body and mind interact to create patterns of behavior, and how those patterns can be changed to promote healing and wellness.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapy that focuses on how one's thoughts, feelings and behaviors are connected and can be changed. It is based on the idea that how we think (cognition) and how we feel (emotion) can influence how we behave. CBT helps people identify and challenge distorted thinking and replace it with more balanced thinking, leading to improved mood and behavior. ‘Homework’, usually containing practical writing exercises, is often completed by the client between sessions to reinforce the therapy. Examples of tools that practitioners often use are journaling, challenging beliefs, and mindfulness.
Dance / Movement Therapy (DMT)Dance Movement Therapy (DMT) is a psychotherapeutic approach that uses movement as a medium for self-expression, exploration, and healing. It is based on the belief that the body and mind are interconnected, and that the body is a source of knowledge and wisdom. Through the practice of DMT, individuals are encouraged to explore movement in order to gain insight into their emotional state and gain insight into the underlying causes of their difficulties. The goal of DMT is to help individuals identify, process, and integrate their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors in order to improve their overall well-being.
Expressive Arts TherapyExpressive Arts Therapy is particularly beneficial for clients who struggle with describing what they are feeling verbally. Through imagination and creation of different art forms, clients are able to interpret and communicate their inner world and catalyze healing. Expressive arts therapy can involve the use of multiple modalities, such as visual arts, music, movement, drama, storytelling, poetry, and play. It is used to help individuals of all ages, including children and adults, to explore their feelings, reconcile emotional conflicts, foster self-awareness, manage behavior and addictions, develop social skills, improve reality orientation, and solve problems.
Holistic PsychotherapyHolistic psychotherapy emphasizes the individual's interconnectedness between the individual's physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects and views them as inseparable components of a single holistic system. Holistic psychotherapy focuses on understanding how these components interact and affect a person’s wellbeing. The goal of holistic psychotherapy is to create a sense of wholeness and harmony within the individual, and to foster self-awareness and self-care. Holistic practitioners use a variety of approaches, including traditional talk therapy, mindfulness practices, and body-based therapies like movement therapy. They also may incorporate nutrition, physical activity, and other lifestyle factors into treatment plans.
