His work has been fundamental in making visible the relationship between mind, body, and social determinants in modern medicine and psychology, and has promoted a more humane and holistic approach to psychiatry, where psychotherapy plays a crucial role in addressing the deep causes of psychological and bodily suffering.
Formación y experiencia.

Experiencias reales.
Caught in this beautiful vision of psychotherapy.
I have completed two courses: Expert in Psychosomatic Medicine and Health Psychology and Expert in Eating Disorders. These courses have provided me with a stable, firm, and flexible foundation. They have given me energy and enthusiasm, providing knowledge that represents pieces of a puzzle.
However, the more pieces I acquire, the more I feel I am missing!
Nothing I have learned from them contradicts what I was already applying in my work, but it has transformed my perspective and functioning in psychotherapy. Every day that I absorb something new from them, I enter a professional crisis from which I ultimately grow.
