ANXIETY & DEPRESSION:

Anxiety is a common disorder in our society and is characterized by: a sensation of breathlessness, palpitations, chest pressure, cold sweats, dizziness, sensation of being at the point of dying, disorientation, etc. The causes that provoke anxiety are diverse, although stress, lack of motivation, insecurity, low self-esteem and the lack of resources in the resolution of these problems, are the most frequent.

Treatment consists of an analysis of the causes that have triggered the growth of these symptoms with the goal of the psychological treatment directed at reorganizing the cognitive perceptions and ideas of the affected person.

In the case of depression, the lack of motivation in many of the aspects of the life of the patient makes it necessary to work towards animating the psychological incentives that give sense to life and searching for new personal and professional goals.

PERSONALITY:

Force of character and emotional balance. It's not easy for a person to orientate themselves given the enormous amount of information that they receive from their environment. This can produce a state of apathy, provoked by an intellectual lack of focus. In the modern society, we find ourselves immersed in a sea of environmental stimuli that can sap a great part of our interior fortitude. It therefore becomes indispensable to support emotional and rational development, reinforcing the character and self-image of the person, so they can overcome their difficulties and create positive and constructive models for themselves.
