Therapeutic approaches
Types of therapy: how I work in session
Four approaches I integrate to support you through the body, emotions, and the story you carry.
I don't work from a single model because people aren't one-dimensional. Depending on what you bring and how the process unfolds, I integrate these four approaches — always following the rhythm of your experience, not a fixed technique.
Somatic Experiencing (SE)
Watch video
A trauma-informed therapeutic model. It pays attention to the nervous system's responses to help you regulate what your body holds, respecting the pace your physical experience sets for us.
The nervous system has its own intelligence — SE works with that intelligence rather than trying to bypass it. Often the body knows what the mind can't yet put into words.
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Watch video
Works with the different "parts" that coexist within you. It helps integrate conflicting inner voices without silencing any of them.
We all have a part that wants to move forward and another that holds back. A part that knows what it needs and another that's afraid to ask for it. IFS creates a space where each one can be heard — from the calmest core within you.
Tapping (EFT)
Watch video
Combines gentle stimulation on specific body points with spoken words. Useful for unblocking "stuck" emotions. It integrates acupuncture with exposure therapy and neurolinguistic programming.
Sometimes there are things we already understand with the mind but the body keeps carrying. EFT works directly with that gap — touching points on the face, chest, and hands while naming what you feel.
Core Energetics
Watch video
Views the person as an integration of body, emotions, thoughts, and intentions. Works with movement and breath to access deeper levels. It offers an evolutionary and transpersonal perspective.
I'm part of the faculty at Instituto Corpore because this approach allowed me to understand that sensation, emotion, thought, intention, and action are different facets of the same experience — the wholeness of being human.
