Psychologist Elvira Perez Vazquez

My name is Elvira and I am a Health Psychologist. Despite my early interest in the human mind and behavior my first studies and profession were directed towards finance. The first path does not always lead us to the goal we want, in any case it is a vital experience that has helped to become the person I am today. My vocation towards psychology always remained intact and even stronger. My basic training is cognitive behavioral without renouncing the contributions of other currents such as the humanistic or the systemic. My purpose is to help people who suffer or feel mental and even physical discomfort to identify their origin and offer them the appropriate tools to face their difficulties and enjoy a more satisfactory.

Vocation. Listening ability. Empathy. Patience. Interest. Validation and acceptance of the problems raised.

As I have more experience in the practice of this profession, it has become clearer to me that our current problems are rooted in past experiences. Childhood traumas, relationship problems, lack of affection from our caregivers, problems in school lead us to suffer anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, social skills deficit, stress, etc
