Miriam Benhamu del Cura

In my beginnings as a psychologist and psychotherapist, I was working at the Fundación Manantiales for the treatment of addictions and support for the families of those affected, and the Asïs Foundation in the Accompaniment Service Therapeutic. Over several years I have been completing my training as a psychotherapist within a mainly dynamic orientation, but from an integrative perspective, incorporating concepts and techniques from other psychological theories that are also valuable. All models can bring benefits and advantages depending on the situations and the people to which they are applied. Each individual is a unique being and what can be useful and beneficial for one may not be so for another. I consider that both permanent training and being open to new techniques and theories are two important characteristics to practice this profession. I work with children, adolescents, adults and groups. Both in working with children and adolescents, the participation of parents is important, so part of the psychotherapeutic work is family.
