About the teacher
I am a psychologist and psychotherapist. Throughout my professional career, my work has focused on understanding the complexity of human experience: how we build our identity, how we relate to others, why we repeat certain relationship patterns, and what happens when the way we cope with the world begins to cause suffering.
A fundamental part of my practice is dedicated to working with adolescents and adults, particularly people experiencing complex personality difficulties. I am a certified Transference-Focused Psychotherapy (TFP) psychotherapist and a member of the International Society of Transference-Focused Psychotherapy (ISTFP). My academic background includes two master's degrees, one in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy and another in Neuropsychology, as well as training in Forensic Psychology and Thanatology.
Teaching and the dissemination of psychological knowledge are also an important part of my work. I have taught classes and courses and delivered lectures for mental health professionals in different academic settings, as well as participated in national and international conferences.
I believe that knowledge about mental health should not remain solely within consulting rooms, universities, or specialized settings. Many words currently used to describe human behavior —such as “narcissistic,” “toxic,” “manipulative,” or “difficult”— have become part of everyday language, but they often oversimplify much more complex psychological phenomena.
I am the founder and director of PSINEURO, a center specializing in mental health that integrates clinical care, assessment, and professional education under a principle that deeply reflects the way I understand mental health work: understand before intervening.
Participating in Intellecta Flow gives me the opportunity to bring this knowledge closer to adolescents, parents, educators, and anyone interested in better understanding their own experience and that of those around them, using accessible language without losing the rigor required when discussing mental health.
My legacy as a psychologist and educator
I would like to contribute to a deeper understanding of human behavior.
Before reducing a person to a label, I hope we can ask ourselves what may lie behind the way they feel, think, and relate to others.
I hope adolescents can understand themselves better; that parents and educators have more tools to support them; and that conversations about mental health increasingly involve less judgment and greater understanding.
If through my work I can help someone look beyond what is visible in a behavior and begin to wonder what may be happening internally, we will have taken an important step toward a society with a deeper understanding of human complexity.
