General Health Psychologist
Collegiate Nº B-03232
I always say that being a psychologist for me was a matter of luck or fate, whatever you want to call it. I enrolled with the hope of getting a better grade to enter another career, but I stayed because I fell in love with this discipline.
As soon as I had the opportunity, I did not hesitate to specialize in sexology at the University of Seville. I have always had a special bond with this area, not only because I think it is necessary to talk about sensitive issues, but also because, for me, it means providing help to an often forgotten community, the LGBTIQ+.
However, sexology is not my only passion. Shortly after I graduated in sexology I specialized in general health psychology through the International University of Valencia, not only to expand my knowledge, but because I realized that clinical psychology, direct contact with the patient and direct participation in their improvement, was what I really enjoyed.
Thorugh my internships I have been able to work with different collectives such as in Atura’t (underage sex offenders), Amadip (intellectual and/or physical disability) or in private practice.
Since then, it was clear to me that my place was in consultation and I have been doing it for a few years now.
My training is continuous and I like to dedicate to each case the attention and care necessary so people receive individualized and adequate attention.
We all seek the same thing in life, be happy. Helping other on the way to happiness is a part of mine.
