Groups provide a space for sharing, reflection and personal development, where different people can work on difficulties, experiences or common goals with psychological support.
Groups can be developed for adolescents, young people, adults, parents and families, with themes and objectives adapted to the participants' needs.

Choose the language you feel most comfortable with.
What if I don't know where to start?
You don't need to prepare a speech or know how to explain everything in the first session. We start by talking and understanding what brought you here, what you are feeling and what you need most at this moment. From this first assessment, we define priorities and support goals together.
What you share in consultation is treated with confidentiality, respect and in accordance with the ethical principles of Psychology.
What we can work on together
Mental health and emotional balance
Anxiety, stress, sadness, emotional overload, self-esteem, emotion management and moments when you feel something in your life is no longer right.
Relationships, couples and family
Conflicts, communication, separation, emotional dependence, parenting, boundaries and relationship rebuilding.
Violence, victimisation and reconstruction
Psychological support in situations of violence, abuse, abusive relationships and other experiences of victimisation, respecting each person's pace, dignity and safety.
Adolescents, young people and future
Identity, self-esteem, bullying, school difficulties, family relationships, emotions, choices, motivation and building a life project.
Migration, identity and belonging
Living between cultures also affects us. Adaptation, loneliness, belonging, identity, family, language and emotional challenges associated with the migration experience.
Mental health and professional life
Stress, burnout, professional pressure, conflicts, workplace bullying and balance between work, family and personal life.
Grief, changes and new beginnings
Losses, separations, motherhood, migration, family or professional changes and other moments when it is necessary to reorganise life.
Self-knowledge, roots and identity
Understanding your own history, recognising patterns, beliefs, values and personal strengths, realising what we want to preserve and what we need to transform.
Prevention and mental health care
You don't need to wait until you reach your limit to seek support. Psychology also helps to recognise signs, understand what is happening, prevent the worsening of suffering and learn to take care of mental health.
You don't need to be at your limit to seek help
Often we learn to keep going, to work, to take care of family and to solve other people's problems, even when emotionally we are not well. Seeking psychological support can be the first step towards understanding what you are going through, taking care of yourself and giving priority back to your mental health and your life.
Psychology from the root
N'sta li pa obiu, ka pa julgau.
I am here to listen, not to judge.
