Methodology

Many women have learned to turn up the volume of other people’s needs, problems, and emotions—what they need, how they feel, what might affect them, and how we can help. But when everything outside becomes so loud, it becomes increasingly difficult to hear what is happening within. Our own voice fades into the background, and our needs, emotions, and boundaries become quieter almost without us noticing. Over time, this way of relating to the world can manifest as anxiety, burnout, guilt, inner conflict, or even physical symptoms.

In my psychotherapy practice in Barcelona and through online sessions, I primarily work with people who have learned to over-adapt, prioritize others, and avoid conflict. Over time, this often leads to a disconnection from their own needs, difficulty setting boundaries, and the feeling of living a life that may look successful from the outside but doesn’t truly feel like their own.

Where It Comes From

These relational patterns often have their roots in past experiences or trauma—personal, family, social, and even transgenerational. They are strategies that, at one point, helped us survive, protect ourselves, or preserve our connection with the people who mattered most. Over time, many of these experiences remain stored not only in our memories but also in our bodies, our nervous systems, and the relational patterns through which we continue to relate to ourselves and others.

What It Means to Reconnect

Reconnecting with yourself means learning to listen again to all the parts of you—including those you learned to hide because they were too sensitive, too intense, or different from what was expected of you. It means becoming more faithful to what feels true within, and from that place, creating a life that feels more authentic and aligned.

This work is not about becoming less caring or less sensitive, nor about disconnecting from others. It is about staying connected to yourself while remaining in relationship with others: discovering who you are, what you need, and what you truly want, and learning that you can honor all of that without abandoning yourself in order to preserve connection.

How It Transforms Relationships

When we stop managing other people’s emotional experience and allow each person to hold their own feelings and responsibilities, we also give them the opportunity to develop their own inner resources. We stop carrying what doesn’t belong to us, creating space for relationships with greater shared responsibility, more freedom, and less emotional exhaustion.

How We Work in Therapy

Together, we integrate your personal history and the emotional experiences that could not be fully processed at the time, including those that continue to be held in the body. We also explore the relational dynamics and projections that shape how you perceive and interpret others.

A central focus of the work is strengthening your connection with your own inner voice—that capacity to sense yourself, understand yourself, and make decisions from a place that is genuinely your own. As this connection deepens, it becomes more natural to recognize your boundaries and communicate them without being overwhelmed by guilt.

The goal is not to create dependence or tell you how you should live. It is to support you in developing the ability to listen to yourself, hold your own emotional experience, and build a life that more faithfully reflects who you truly are.

My approach

I work from an integrative approach that combines Internal Family Systems (IFS), a holistic and transpersonal perspective, and body and breathwork tools. This isn’t just about talking through what’s happening, it’s about feeling it and processing it at the level of the body too.
