About Me:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”5px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n My name is Ana and I live in Barcelona. I consider myself an empathetic and sensitive person, able to adapt to changes.\u00a0 I love animals, nature and dance, and I have recently become a mother.<\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][\/qode_elements_holder_item][qode_elements_holder_item vertical_alignment=”top” advanced_animations=”no” item_padding=”8%” background_color=”#eaebef”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n Therapy Style and Experience:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”5px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n In my work I use psycho-therapeutic models with a relational focus (family-systemic therapy and attachment theory), to understand the causes of suffering and to activate the resources of each person to facilitate change.<\/p>\r\n I would describe myself as an active, direct and emotional therapist.<\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][\/qode_elements_holder_item][qode_elements_holder_item vertical_alignment=”top” advanced_animations=”no” item_padding=”8%” background_color=”#d9dadd”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n My Experience with the PhD world:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”5px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n I received my Bachelor degree in Psychology from the University of Barcelona. I further pursued a Masters in Neurosciences thanks to which I entered the world of academic research. For three years I worked in the Center for Brain and Cognition at the University Pompeu Fabra as research assistant and later as coordinator of the Babylab.<\/p>\r\n In 2013 I left the lab to start my career as clinical therapist. Since then I have had several PhD students as patients\/clients and therefore empathize greatly with those suffering in the process.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][\/qode_elements_holder_item][\/qode_elements_holder][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css=”.vc_custom_1614939396599{padding-top: 20px !important;}” z_index=””][vc_column][qode_elements_holder number_of_columns=”four_columns”][qode_elements_holder_item cover=”yes” vertical_alignment=”bottom” advanced_animations=”no” item_padding=”5%” background_image=”1546″ custom_class=”col_foto” item_padding_768_1024=”50% 5% 10% 5%” item_padding_600_768=”50% 5% 10% 5%” item_padding_480_600=”50% 5% 10% 5%” item_padding_480=”50% 5% 10% 5%”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”5px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n Therapy in English<\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][\/qode_elements_holder_item][qode_elements_holder_item vertical_alignment=”top” advanced_animations=”no” item_padding=”8%” background_color=”#f4f5f9″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n About Me:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”5px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n My name’s Chris and I’ve lived in Barcelona for many\u00a0years although\u00a0I’m originally from the UK.\u00a0 I have an interest in Mindfulness and meditation and believe strongly in continuous\u00a0personal development, we are always a work\u00a0in progress. I try to live according to my values with compassion for others and myself, and I believe my work as a therapist reflects these things.<\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][\/qode_elements_holder_item][qode_elements_holder_item vertical_alignment=”top” advanced_animations=”no” item_padding=”8%” background_color=”#eaebef”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n Therapy Style and Experience:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”5px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n I’m a psychotherapist specialised in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy.\u00a0 I graduated with an honours degree in psychology in the UK and worked for many years there in the mental health field, helping people with a wide range of psychological issues. I completed my Masters in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy in Barcelona and as a therapist I offer clients a safe, confidential and welcoming environment in which to explore and navigate through difficult times in their lives. The therapy is an active, collaborative process and encourages clients to learn techniques which they can use during the period of therapy and take with them as tools to help in the future, promoting independence and longer term benefits.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][\/qode_elements_holder_item][qode_elements_holder_item vertical_alignment=”top” advanced_animations=”no” item_padding=”8%” background_color=”#d9dadd”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n My Experience with the PhD world:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”5px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n As well as my own experience during my degree and Masters I have worked with a number of clients studying in tertiary education including PhD students. CBT is a practical, evidence-based therapy which helps people identify patterns of thoughts and behaviour that give them difficulties and to build more helpful ones. It is backed up by many studies demonstrating its efficacy with a range of psychological\u00a0issues and this scientific approach can be well-suited to people working on their doctorates.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][\/qode_elements_holder_item][\/qode_elements_holder][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css=”.vc_custom_1606761202414{padding-top: 20px !important;}” z_index=””][vc_column][qode_elements_holder number_of_columns=”four_columns”][qode_elements_holder_item cover=”yes” vertical_alignment=”bottom” advanced_animations=”no” item_padding=”5%” background_image=”1308″ custom_class=”col_foto” item_padding_768_1024=”50% 5% 10% 5%” item_padding_600_768=”50% 5% 10% 5%” item_padding_480_600=”50% 5% 10% 5%” item_padding_480=”50% 5% 10% 5%”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”5px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n Therapy in English, Spanish, Catalan<\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][\/qode_elements_holder_item][qode_elements_holder_item vertical_alignment=”top” advanced_animations=”no” item_padding=”8%” background_color=”#f4f5f9″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n About Me:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”5px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n My name is Anna and I come from a multicultural home, with an English father and a Catalan mother. I\u2019m interested in how culture and language shape our identity and self-image: both the cultures we are born into, the legacies from our families of origin, and the contexts we live our lives in (personal, professional and social).<\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][\/qode_elements_holder_item][qode_elements_holder_item vertical_alignment=”top” advanced_animations=”no” item_padding=”8%” background_color=”#eaebef”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n Therapy Style and Experience:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”5px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n I have eight years of experience working cross-culturally with people who embark on the adventure of moving to a new country and culture, motivated by better work opportunities, love, a desire for something new, or to live life according to one\u2019s own personal values.

My aim is to serve as a catalyst for the person\u2019s resources, by providing a tailor-made approach to therapy to work towards the desired changes, support in resolving dilemmas or issues in communication in significant work relationships (with colleagues, supervisors or PIs) and to foster a healthy sense of self-worth and self-confidence to maneuver the challenges ahead.<\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][\/qode_elements_holder_item][\/qode_elements_holder][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css=”.vc_custom_1606761193910{margin-top: 20px !important;}” z_index=””][vc_column][qode_elements_holder number_of_columns=”four_columns”][qode_elements_holder_item cover=”yes” vertical_alignment=”bottom” advanced_animations=”no” item_padding=”5%” background_image=”1306″ custom_class=”col_foto” item_padding_768_1024=”50% 5% 10% 5%” item_padding_600_768=”50% 5% 10% 5%” item_padding_480_600=”50% 5% 10% 5%” item_padding_480=”50% 5% 10% 5%”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”5px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n Therapy in Italian and Spanish<\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][\/qode_elements_holder_item][qode_elements_holder_item vertical_alignment=”top” advanced_animations=”no” item_padding=”8%” background_color=”#f4f5f9″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n About Me:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”5px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n My name is Ornella, I’m Italian but since 2013 I have been living in Barcelona.
