Mrs Verónica Espinosa Sánchez

CBT Psychotherapist

“Warm, evidence-based therapy in Spanish, English and French. I help teens, adults & couples heal anxiety, trauma, self-esteem & relationship issues. Also: neuropsychology & leadership mentoring. Online worldwide & in-person in Ecuador”

About Me

I offer a space where we can deeply explore the challenges you face, drawing on both psychological insights and an understanding of brain function. My aim is to help you navigate complex feelings and thought patterns. We can work together to develop tailored strategies, empowering you to make meaningful changes. This approach is ideal for those seeking a comprehensive understanding of their well-being.

Approach

Sessions blend focused skill practice with gentle exploration of memories and thinking habits, shifting between practical exercises and reflective moments so you can apply insights to daily life. I work in Spanish, English and French, meeting online or in Quito so the pace and setting fit your routine. Therapy is structured yet flexible: we try short experiments, track thinking and emotional patterns, and use concise between-session tasks informed by neuropsychological knowledge so changes feel measurable. This approach suits people seeking clear, brain-aware steps toward less anxiety and stronger relationships.
