A space that
cares for your
emotional well-being
Welcome,
Welcome,
My name is Isaac and I am a qualified psychologist, with a degree in Psychology (Universitat de Barcelona) and a Masters in Clinical Psychology (Institut Mensalus). I am also trained in various areas of Mindfulness, including Stress-Reduction, Cognitive Therapy and Self-Compassion, which I completed doing a Post-graduate course (Asociación Española de Mindfulness).
I offer one-to-one and group therapies providing support for adults struggling with emotional difficulties. I have experience dealing with gender-based violence, grief and bereavement, emotional instability, stress and anxiety. I have also led group sessions in stress-reduction at the centre AMALGAMA, resulting in a 45% decrease in anxiety as a group.
Exploration isn't about conquering nature, planting flags or leaving your mark. It's about the opposite: opening yourself up and allowing the place to leave its mark on you..."

WHAT I DO
I base my practise in the reduction of anxiety, dealing with the emotional side of an issue and looking for the inner calm. I consider the individual as a whole, taking into account the body and the mind as one, as they both play a role in managing the issues we face.
Each person and each situation are different, this difference helps guide us towards emotional well-being. I base my work from an humanistic-approach, however, rather than follow one strict theory or perspective I extract tools and ideas from various different approaches which help me take care in each individual.
The Attention
Attention is a powerful tool in aiding the reduction of stress and anxiety. Using Mindfulness and Focusing exercises we can reduce tension and open a space of inner-calm which allows us to get closer to the roots of the issues.
Managing Emotions
Through conscious mind and body exercises a person learns not to let themself be controlled by their thoughts and emotions, but to have control over them no matter what changes in their environment might arise.
Solution-based Therapy
Through personal work along with therapy one gains perspective and widens their view enabling them to explore new visions and to change their perspective. We can use these new perspectives to open up new possibilities.
Transactional Analysis
Relating to an individual´s personality, particularly how this has been shaped by relationships and experiences both past and present, we use these to step further into the “inner world”.

Most of the techniques follow guided meditations. Here you can listen to an example.
Con todas las herramientas que me diste me siento capaz de afrontar las cosas de otra manera, me siento más fuerte y segura de mí misma.
Me siento bien, prácticamente no he vuelto a tener ansiedad ni siento los episodios de decaimiento anímico tan seguidos como me ocurría antes.
