Cognitive Behavioral Therapy: It is the therapy with the most evidence-based recognition. There is a link between what we think, how we feel and how we act. So if we change the first point, our cognition, we can feel better and act in a better or healthier way.

Depression is currently fourth among the top 10 causes of the global burden.

One of the biggest influence in our life is the family, and the way the relationships in the family are. We work from a systemic perspective, because any change in the family, will cause a change in the whole family system, direct or indirectly.

Training empathy, altruism, resilience and compassion from a neuroscientific perspective based on brain neuroplasticity, with the aim of training the calm mind to produce well-being in any type of situation.

We address the emotional, behavioural, cognitive, affective and social problems of minors, understanding the evolutionary period in which they are located and how their family, educational and social environment is developing. Early care is the most effective way to prevent emotional disorders in adulthood. We also intervene with parents, teachers and other adults who influence the child’s behavior.

Between the ages of 14 and 18 young people deal with a particularly difficult period, there is a certain detachment towards parents, more approach to their peers and the values passed on from family and school are questioned, looking for other options and seeking their own identity. Very rapid biological changes occur, as well as psychological and social changes causing the so-called “emotional storms”.

Adults take counsel for both traditional clinical pictures and other types of difficulties. Adulthood is accompanied by increased responsibilities, conflicts and intense experiences. Adults are also responsible for other people (sick or elderly parents, children), live more bereavements (death, breakups, job loss…), deal with a chronic illness, have less time for themselves, overflow and sometimes are unable to find a way out.  After several unresolved attempts at self-management is when the adult asks the professional for help.

Each stage of life has specific needs. With seniors, it is important to assess people’s cognitive status, lifestyle, self-care, adaptation skills, coping strategies and social support. The most common reasons for consultation are retirement anxiety, depression, griefs due to loss and lifestyle changes, a cognitive decline from dementia and memory loss.

Couples go through different phases, and each change can become a small or big crisis: Moving together, getting married, having children, and then teenagers, when their own parents become elderly people and start having health problems and different needs… There are also other personal factors that can affect the couple, like job situation, a change in one’s own needs, or values or interests. We all develop ourselves along our live, and sometimes a couple needs to adapt each other, more than once in their life.

The family is one of the systems that have more influence on our development as a person. We find it very important, in some cases, to work with the family, when there is a relational problem or there are certain aspects that are not working well.

With minors, we always work with the family, because some times if we change things in the family, the problem that the minor has, can be solved more easily.
