About Olga.
Professional Background and Contributions
Olga Barroso Braojos has significant professional experience in the field of gender violence. For 13 years, she was the coordinator and psychologist of various specialized resources in gender violence from the City Council of Madrid and the Community of Madrid, directly assisting women and minors who are survivors of male violence.
For over 10 years, she has been a trainer for different entities in the fields of Gender Violence, Child Protection, and support for individuals affected by Traumatic Processes in Madrid and various autonomous communities. At the Official College of Psychology of Madrid, she is the coordinator and instructor of the Expert in Psychological Intervention with Victims of Gender Violence (to date, more than 10 editions), the Online Course on Stories and Metaphors for Use in Therapy, and the course on Attachment Theory and Trauma, Techniques and Applications in Psychotherapy.
In addition to her training work, she supervises teams working with victims of gender violence from the Gender Violence Attention Network of the City Council of Madrid and the Community of Madrid, contributing her experience and knowledge to improve intervention with victims.
As an author, she has written several books that have become references in the field. El amor no maltrata (Shackleton Books) is a work that exposes and analyzes the behavior of men who abuse their female partners, the causes, manipulation strategies, and how violent behaviors replace affectionate ones. Illustrated with testimonies from real victims, the book offers keys to identify abuse and escape these situations.
At Editorial Sentir, she has published Cuentos para el desarrollo emocional desde la teoría del apego (2019) and Los pájaros arcoíris, in addition to being a co-author of Educación Emocional y Apego and Ni Rosa ni Azul, the latter focused on equal education and the prevention of gender violence from an early age.
