My Story

I was born in Paraguay, grew up between cultures, and spent years building the kind of life that looks right from the outside. I studied psychology in Barcelona, built a startup from scratch, ran an international real estate company, and eventually became a product manager in London's tech world.

I was successful. And I was suffering.

Burnout brought me to my knees. But it also brought me home. What I discovered in that breaking point was that I hadn't lost myself dramatically — it had happened quietly, over years. The performance, the adapting, the becoming who the world needed me to be. Until I woke up one day and felt the weight of it all.

My own return to myself began in the therapy room, in the forest, and in ceremony with indigenous communities whose knowledge of the human soul runs thousands of years deeper than anything I'd studied in a textbook.

Today I live between London and the Amazon. I work with clients across the world. And I lead retreats — including in the heart of the Brazilian Amazon — where the forest does much of the teaching.

My work is the synthesis of everything I've lived, studied, and witnessed. It is precise, practical, and rooted in genuine depth.

This Isn't Therapy. It Isn't Coaching Either. It’s Orientation.

I trained as an Integrative Psychotherapist and spent years studying with some of the most respected practitioners in the world — including Dr. Gabor Maté's Compassionate Inquiry approach. I've also spent seven years in immersive study with indigenous communities: the Huni Kuin of Brazil, and the Kogi and Wiwa people of Colombia.

What I've learned — in the therapy room and deep in the Amazon — is that most people don't need to talk more about their stuff. They need to identify the patterns and, most importantly, where they come from. What they need is someone to help them see the one thing they've never been able to see about themselves.

Once they see it, they change. Organically. Without force. Without willpower.

My work is practical and direct. Clients often tell me: 'I've been in therapy for years, but this is different. You don't just listen — something actually shifts.'

That shift is what I'm here for.

The Amazon & Indigenous Wisdom

My relationship with indigenous communities is not ceremonial tourism. It is family. I have spent years building genuine relationships of trust, reciprocity, and deep learning with the Huni Kuin people in Brazil, and most recently with the family at Yorenka Tasorentsi — one of the most important centres of forest protection and indigenous culture in the Amazon.

I have also had the profound experience of facilitating encounters between these ancient knowledge systems and the most advanced scientific minds of our time — including people working at the frontier of quantum computing and artificial intelligence. What emerges when those two worlds meet in the forest is something that neither could produce alone.

I believe we are entering a period where the most rigorous thinkers will begin treating indigenous knowledge systems not as folklore to be translated into Western categories — but as refined maps of territory that science is only beginning to understand.

My job is to make sure that relationship becomes genuine reciprocity. And not just another extraction.

Beyond the Work

I am Paraguayan-European. I have navigated multiple cultures, languages, and versions of myself. That navigation — and what I found at the end of it — is the foundation of everything I offer.

The forest teaches me something new every time I return. My clients teach me something new every session.

I believe that joy, freedom, and genuine aliveness are not rewards for getting everything right. They are your natural state — the one you were born into before the world layered over it.

My work is simply helping you find your way back.

If something in this page has resonated — if you recognise yourself in these words — I'd love to have a conversation. No commitment, no pressure. Just an honest exploration of whether this work is right for you.

See clearly. Change naturally. Live fully.
