About me

My path to becoming a psychologist has been forged through a diversity of work experiences that have enriched my understanding of psychology and strengthened my clinical practice.

I began my journey at the Instituto de Neurociencias in Guayaquil, where, as an intern, I immersed myself in the analysis and evaluation of psychiatric patients. Interviewing and charting not only allowed me to understand the complexity of mental conditions, but also the uniqueness of each individual in their healing process.

My passion for psychology was further solidified during my time at Posada San Francisco in Cuenca, where I served as a psycho-pedagogical classroom tutor. Here, I not only provided psychoeducation to parents, but also led psychodrama sessions and workshops with children from various institutions. Each interaction was an opportunity to apply different techniques to reach an integrative therapy, recognizing the importance of addressing emotional and cognitive needs from different perspectives.

At CECAPAUSTRO, I continued my work as a instructor in the human development module, where I provided tools in emotional intelligence and effective communication to security guards. My focus was not only on professional development, but also on the personal growth of each individual, respecting the diversity of experiences and perspectives.

Later, at EcuadorVisas, I assumed the role of legal-administrative assistant, where my work in translations and interpretations allowed me to apply my linguistic skills to the service of the Spanish and English-speaking community. Through this experience, I reaffirmed my commitment to supporting others, time management and the importance of organization. 

It goes without saying that I am deeply grateful to my mentors and bosses, who have been important guides in my professional development, for giving me the opportunity to grow and learn in such enriching environments. Their support and guidance have been invaluable in my path to excellence in clinical psychology.

I also wish to acknowledge and thank all the people I have had the privilege of working with throughout my career. Each interaction has been an invaluable lesson, and each has contributed uniquely to my professional and personal growth. I sincerely appreciate their collaboration, support, and confidence in me.

Finally, my journey in psychology led me to explore new horizons as an independent psychologist, offering online individual and couples psychotherapy services for Spanish and English speaking people. In this digital space, my goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where each individual can explore and heal without fear of judgment or exclusion.

My therapeutic approach is based on an integrative perspective, which incorporates various techniques and approaches according to the specific needs of each person. It is my mission to offer for my clients a deep accompaniment, full of empathy and warmth, in the journey towards self-knowledge, emotional healing and personal transformation.

Each experience I have shared has been a pillar in my professional and personal development, reaffirming my commitment to integrative psychology and inclusion. My practice is rooted in respect, empathy and unconditional acceptance, guiding each individual towards their own path of healing and growth.

If you would like to take the first step and begin your journey to emotional wellness, I invite you to contact me. Together, we can seek a better tomorrow.
