Overview
I’m a clinical psychologist from Chile, trained in the CFT model and certified trainer of the Compassionate Mind Training (CMT) 8 week program. I’ve been working with CFT since 2019 with different clinical populations, in individual and group settings. It has been a revelation for me to be able to develop a compassionate approach to suffering, integrating the evolutionary understanding of the mind with mindfulness and compassion practices.It has been really useful for working with self critic, anxiety, depression and chronic pain, which are my main areas of expertise. Also I use this model to provide psychedelic integration, teaching emotional regulation skills and a compassionate point of view for those who decide to have a psychedelic experience and need support afterwards.
Currently I’m offering all of my services online: individual psychotherapy, psychedelic integration and also the 8 week CMT program.

Individuals, Groups
I started my training in CFT with Gonzalo Brito (Cultivar la Mente) in 2019, at Santiago de Chile. After finishing it in 2020, I was interested in offering this approach to groups, so I did the Compassion Focused Group Psychotherapy training with Kate Lucre (Compassionate Mind Foundation). At that point I was offering individual psychotherapy and also I started a psychotherapeutic group, which I coordinated for two years, in the public mental health system of Chile. With some colleagues we started a peer supervision group in 2020, which we maintain until now. It has been an important space for reflection, learning and mutual support. In 2022 I've finished my study as a trainer of the 8 week Compassionate Mind Training, with Chris Irons and Charlie Heriot-Maitland (Balanced Minds) and I've been offering it to the general population. I've worked for years in public mental health and now I'm dedicated to my online private practice.
