My Approach

My work is rooted in an absolute respect for my clients' history and their life choices. I have a genuine interest in supporting a careful exploration of what could be the origin of their suffering and what helps them enjoy life. My clients’ wider circumstances, their needs and the surrounding environment are essential to the process.
I have a firm belief we all possess what we need to navigate critical times in our lives. But we often need another person close by to help us discover and develop these resources. Sometimes, we need a professional.
Our first session provides a safe and confidential space for the client to share their understanding of the current situation, and what they would like to get from the therapeutic process ideally. It is a shared opportunity to see if we both feel that we can work together.
My practice is gender-informed, trauma-informed and affirmative for people who are diverse in terms of their gender, sexuality or relationship style.

About Me

Hi, I'm Carlos. I offer online therapy in English and Spanish. My core approach is Gestalt Therapy, using tools and techniques from my training in other approaches. I have a special interest in integrating thought, emotion, physical sensation and dreams during the therapy sessions.
I have trained with a variety of institutions - the traditional, the scientific and the more alternative and experimental - mainly in London and Madrid.
I trained in psychotherapy under a therapist who helped me through a difficult emotional process in my twenties and later became my mentor. 30 years later, I’m helping others to navigate difficult moments and find meaning in their lives. My experience supports my understanding of feeling helpless, disorientated and hopeless, but also enthusiastic and adventurous.
While training as a therapist, I worked helping children, familes and adults and as an artist. These experiences allow me to be understanding of my client's circumstances and potential for creative development.
People are incredibly rich and complex and so are our relationships. Therefore, in my work I try to focus precisely on what is unique in each individual, couple or group. After all these years, I continue to be inspired by our capacity to find motivation, energy, and peace in ourselves.
