Álvaro Ruiz De Ocenda Armentia

Dedicated to psychology for more than 20 years, with an interest in researching those areas that can improve people's well-being. I understand therapy as the space in which two people meet and for this, trust, mutual respect and acceptance are essential. At this moment I am applying aspects that come from mindfulness or Mindfulness to therapy, and it is producing results that surprise me on a daily basis. This has influenced that it has encouraged me to carry out research on Mindfulness and chronic pain leading to obtaining a doctorate in Psychology.

At this time he performed therapy (individual, couples and family) and also collaborated with the VITHAS San Hospital. José teaching Mindfulness for Health, Mindfulness for Stress and Mindfulness for Insomnia programs.

I have taught a course at the Official College of Psychologists of Álava on Mindfulness for Health and Stress, I collaborate with various associations teaching programs for the stress management (ADEAR, ASPACE ...) and at this time I am conducting an investigation in patients suffering from chronic pain on the efficacy of a treatment based on Mindfulness.
