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 that 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.
A first session with me 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 anti-racist, gender-informed, trauma-informed, and affirmative for people who are diverse in terms of their gender, sexuality or relationship style.
Hi, I'm Carlos. I offer online therapy in English and Spanish. My core approach is Gestalt Therapy and I use tools and techniques from my training and experience 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 - some traditional, some scientific and some more alternative and experimental – in Madrid and in London where I moved in 2003.
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 at other times.
While training as a therapist, I worked helping children, families, and adults and as an artist. These experiences allow me to understand better my clients’ circumstances and their potential for creative development.
We 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.
Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.
