Clinical Psychologist & Forensic Psychology Expert
With over 30 years of experience in psychological evaluation, diagnosis, and intervention across child, adolescent, and adult populations.
My professional career has spanned the clinical, forensic, organizational, and academic fields, providing specialized care to individuals facing diverse emotional, behavioral, and relational challenges. I have participated in the design and implementation of mental health programs, individual, couples, and family psychotherapeutic processes, as well as comprehensive psychological evaluations for both clinical and legal-forensic purposes.
Currently, I am part of a multidisciplinary team dedicated to comprehensive mental health and personal well-being. In this role, I support patients seeking to overcome substance use issues, mood disorders such as depression and anxiety, adjustment difficulties, dysfunctional personality patterns, and personal growth processes. My work encompasses psychological assessment, therapeutic accompaniment, and clinical follow-up during complementary treatments aimed at emotional well-being and personal transformation.
My approach to practice is grounded in respect for human dignity, empathetic care, and evidence-based practice, empowering each individual to develop internal resources that allow them to improve their quality of life, strengthen their relationships, and achieve greater emotional balance.
In addition to my clinical practice, I serve as a university professor and guest speaker, contributing to the training of mental health professionals and the dissemination of psychological knowledge in various contexts.
