Accredited CBT Therapist
EMDR Practitioner
About Me
I am a Psychologist, registered with BPS (British Psychological Society ) since 1995. I did my Bachelors Degree in Psychology at the University of Oviedo, Spain, specializing in Clinical Psychology. I then completed a 2 year MSc in Clinical Psychology and Behavioural Modification at Cetco, Oviedo (Spain).
After moving to the UK, I completed a Postgraduate Course in Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapy (CBT) at UCL Medical school (University College of London).
I have been Accredited CBT Therapist with BABCP (British Association of Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies) since 1999. Since then, as well as expanding my knowledge of CBT, I have also trained in Schema Therapy and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing ). These three approaches can be used as part of the same treatment plan and often complement each other.
I have worked in the public and private sector. Working for the Priory Hospital since 1996, I gained extensive experience as a therapist both in groups and on individual basis. I developed training programmes for resident doctors and for nursing staff. I have also provided clinical supervision to fellow CBT Therapists.
Since 1999, I run my own Private practice from Ten Harley Street in Central London and I also have a consulting room at The Priory Hospital Roehampton.
As well as doing my clinical work , I am a Visiting Lecturer at University of Roehampton (London) where I develop and teach the CBT module of their PsychD in Counselling Psychology
I continue providing supervision to other therapists.
I have a special interest in the treatment of PTSD and I have successfully treated members of the army, journalists, members of the emergency services, abuse survivors, victims of disasters and accidents and victims of crime
I am bilingual in English and Spanish, and fluent in Italian
