Background and Experience

Through my practise as a psychotherapist, I help the person make necessary changes in their inner life, as well as with their lives in relation to others, so they are able to face life using their own vital potential. I believe that although happiness might be an ideal, living ones life involves conflict – whether that be conscious or unconscious, as an individual or with relation to other people; whether in a relationship or a social context. It also involves self- recognition, an acknowledgement of ones capabilities and limits for problem solving. I would say that I try to work with my clients so that their tigers become paper tigers.

When I accept a person for psychotherapy, I take responsibility, together with them, for their life as a whole.

I am an advocate for children and young people, believing that each of us as human beings can develop our own way of thinking, in accordance with ones beliefs. Through my therapeutic work, I support the creative potential of my clients so that they can resolve their own conflicts. I am inspired in this by the work of D.W.Winnicott, F.Dolto and S.Freud.

I am a psychologist, specialising in clinical psychology. I graduated in psychology in Argentina and completed my Masters in Canada, on the subject of immigration. I graduated from each course with a Diploma of Honour. As a psychologist, my approach is psychoanalytical. I have worked in this field for 25 years.

I work with children, adolescents, adults, guiding parents, and the elderly. I also do case management and crisis intervention for families and institutions.
