TESTIMONIALS

What my patients say

These are some of the experiences of people who have found a safe space in my services to grow and heal.

It is hard to describe in a few words what working with Cristina has meant to me: personal acceptance, compassion for oneself and others, new perspectives, and a deeper understanding of the dynamics that move us. It has been a journey toward discovering my own truth, beyond what I always believed was important based on the expectations and beliefs of others. If you're reading this, just know one thing: there is a before and after having met Cristina.

Cristina is a great professional and an even better person. I have been working with her for three years, and from day one, I have been able to express myself comfortably and with confidence. Always attentive to my needs, she has helped me self-discover and understand myself. Since I started personal therapy with her, I can clearly see how much I have grown personally, and since I started with the personal development group, I have found a family where I feel heard and supported, as well as benefiting from having different perspectives. It is a great experience meeting other people in an environment where, even without prior contact, trust, respect, and understanding are the priority.

At 35 years old and never having been in therapy before, meeting Cristina and having her as my therapist and guide through this process has been the greatest stroke of luck I could have ever had. Cristina’s sensitivity, professionalism, and skill have been essential in helping me break through the deep barriers I had built within myself. The warmth, care, and boundless humanity I’ve felt in both individual sessions and group settings have made me feel seen for the first time in many years, and have opened the door for both myself and others to do the same. Today, my whole life has taken a direction that I feel aligned and at peace with, and although there is still a long way to go, I feel capable and equipped with the tools to keep moving forward.

Working with Cristina and the groups she has created is a life-changing experience. You will never feel alone, and you will find the perfect environment to grow both individually and alongside others. If you're ready to go deeper inside yourself and have the energy to grow in community, this is the right safe space for you. Here you will feel like you belong, you will be valued with respect, and you will feel loved.

FAQS: WORKSHOP FOR EXPATS

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this workshop only for recent expatriates?

No, the workshop is for anyone who feels they don’t fully fit into their environment, whether because they’ve recently moved to a new country or because, after a while, they still feel disconnected.

Do I have to share personal experiences with the group?

It is not mandatory. Participation is optional, and we respect each person’s pace. You can share what makes you feel comfortable or simply listen and reflect.

Can I attend if I have been in the country for a long time and I am thinking about emigrating to another country or back to my country of origin?

Of course. The feeling of not belonging doesn’t always relate to the place you’re from. Belonging is worked on at many levels, starting with yourself and you take this with you wherever you go. Learning to belong before moving back, can help us re-adapt to a new place. And learning to properly close an experience with a place can help us integrate into another one more fully and smoothly.
