A Psychologist and Business Leader with over 15 years of experience, I bring a unique combination of clinical expertise and organizational insight. My background spans mental health care, digital transformation, and business administration across international organizations, corporate environments, and academia.
I offer a flexible and comprehensive evidence-based framework, addressing concerns while considering individual/organizational needs, as well as cultural and social contexts. My approach fosters collaboration and shared decision-making. I work with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy to support individuals and groups in building healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and acting.
I specialize in resilience, psychological safety, and cultural inclusivity, self-development. I have supported diverse communities and major international organizations to promote well-being, strengthen relationships, and build digital literacy.
My passion lies in helping individuals and teams navigate complexity, enhancing emotional health, preventing burnout, and integrating technology in human-centered ways. As a practitioner, I combine scientific rigor with practical tools to empower growth, creativity, and sustainable performance.
