WORKSHOPS 2025

SELF KNOWLEDGE

✨IN ENGLISH✨

Most of my patients/clients are expatriates and report a lack of sense of belonging and feelings of sadness, loneliness and misunderstood within a Scandinavian culture where individuality is at the root of their functioning. Therefore, as an international psychologist (originally from Spain), I decided to create a space, a community of support, where a group of expatriates, interested in personal growth, self-knowledge and other related topics could support each other and create interpersonal relationships that could help their own self-knowledge process.

The program is based on my experience of working as a clinical and intercultural psychologist for the past 14 years. I have made a summary of what seems to work well among international people living abroad in terms of expanding self-awareness, dealing with conflicts, developing healthier relationships and promoting personal growth. In short, the goal of each meeting will be to grow individually and in relation to others. We will explore through consciousness: mind, emotions, body and behavior to learn resources that can help us achieve what we desire.

The methodology will use different psychotherapeutic approaches in each workshop. The main approach this group is based on is: Integrative Psychotherapy, a combination of elements of Transactional Analysis, Gestalt Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Integrative Somatic Experiencing Art Therapy…

In each workshop there will be theory (toolkit of taught resources), personal sharing, and practical/experiential exercises. A journal will be provided on the first day.

The subjects (theoretical concepts) taught to the group will be carefully chosen taking into account the specific needs of the group and the current context. As each individual is different, so is each group, and the theory will be adjusted to the group’s potential in order to boost everyone’s personal growth as much as possible.
