Sports psychology
I've been an athlete all my life, that's why I specialized in sports...
As a child I competed in tennis, as an adult I have completed ironmans, cross-country races, ultratrails... I like to put my mental techniques into practice.
Sleep disorders and insomnia
I offer you an effective treatment for insomnia without medication, based on scientific and easy-to-apply techniques.
Recovering peaceful nights and waking up with energy is absolutely possible.
Psychological therapy
If you are experiencing anxiety, phobias, trauma or low mood, I can help you regain stability and well-being. We will work on emotional management and the patterns that limit you in your daily life. The treatment is personalized and focused on clear and realistic goals.
