Welcome
I am Cristina Montoro
AUTHORIZED PSYCHOLOGIST & PSYCHOTHERAPIST
Originating from Madrid, I found my passion for guiding individuals toward healing and self-discovery. My global experiences—from Spain to Denmark, Ireland, and England—deepened my understanding of resilience. Settling in Copenhagen, I specialize in aiding expatriates facing life changes. My therapeutic approach fosters authenticity, empathy, and growth. Witnessing clients embrace their strengths reaffirms my belief in positive transformation. Committed to continual personal growth, I aim for a balanced approach to support others on their journey toward self-awareness and well-being.

Vision
My vision is to nurture a supportive space for expatriates and individuals, fostering inner resilience and transformation. I aim for a community where authenticity, empathy, and growth unite, empowering everyone to lead purposeful lives. With collaborative guidance and unwavering support, I envision individuals confidently navigating life’s transitions, embodying their true selves with resilience and grace.
Mission
My mission is to serve as a compassionate ally, guiding individuals—especially expatriates—through life’s transitions. Grounded in empathy and authenticity, I aim to create a safe space where each person’s inherent strength is nurtured. I’m committed to empowering others in discovering their resilience, fostering growth, and supporting their journey towards a more fulfilling life. Facilitating transformation
Values
In my practice, empathy guides our connection, fostering openness. Authenticity empowers genuine expression, while respect honors each person’s beliefs and emotions. Encouraging continual growth for both clients and myself, I establish trust through confidential discussions. Embracing diverse backgrounds, I ensure inclusivity and understanding for all. Compassion is our cornerstone, nurturing diverse experiences.
