After graduating, Catalina continued her training in Clinical Psychology, Health Psychology, and Social Psychology, complementing these with other courses and seminars related to other areas (human resources, psychology of aging and old age, grief, etc.), always trying to integrate the knowledge acquired with her professional experience, treating depression, anxiety, relationship problems, disorders, and many more, practicing as a psychologist in private practice and in the community.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is adult psychology?
    Therapy pursues the professional goal of improving your well-being and resolving your psychological problems (depression, anxiety, stress, relationship problems, OCD, etc.). We implement an effective psychotherapy method that addresses the root causes of these problems.
    What kind of therapy do you do?
    We offer you a therapy based on scientific psychology, a corrective emotional experience through each appointment.
    How does a person know they have depression? What treatment do we use for depression?
    In our daily lives, bad things will happen to us that can temporarily sadden us, such as a breakup or a job loss. But this discomfort is only temporary and only causes a mild emotional disturbance and a slight hindrance to our daily happiness.
    How does Adult Psychology intervene in the face of trauma?
    Our lives are a constant stream of unexpected events, situations beyond our control. We usually confront them and incorporate these obstacles into our personal growth, turning them into new tools that serve as future solutions.
    Anxiety management.
    The feeling of shortness of breath, palpitations, or a tingling sensation in the extremities are the most common. In general, anxiety paralyzes us.
    Stress, eating or sleeping disorders, relationship difficulties, and other areas of action.
    Providing you with mechanisms to overcome stress, detecting a dysfunction in your eating habits, addressing your insomnia, or treating an adjustment problem are essential actions for our team. And each and every one of them deserves an in-depth analysis by our most experienced psychologists in Palma de Mallorca.

    Aterricé en la consulta de Cata muy confundida, no quería remover cosas de mi pasado, pero entendí que si no lo hacía no podía avanzar, en muy pocas sesiones mi vida dio un giro muy heavy, hacía mucho tiempo que no sentía tanta paz mental, siento que ahora lo estoy haciendo bien, que estoy en el camino correcto, Cata me ha dado las pautas a seguir, me ha dado ese empujón que necesitaba.
Es una gran profesional y se preocupa tanto dentro como fuera de consulta.
Recomiendo a Cata con los ojos cerrados.
Vive su profesión y te lo transmite en cada consulta.
Gracias 🍀❤️

    Hace un año atrás, buscaba una psicòloga, y una corazonada o una coincidencia encontre a Cata. Una mujer auténtica, humilde y cercana con sus pacientes, para transmitir las enseñanzas de los conocimientos que posé con cada sección. Sin dejar de sonreír.
Muchas gracias Cata.

    Desde mi primera sesión conecté de inmediato con Cata, encontré simplemente a la persona correcta. Me gusta como escucha mis preocupaciones, experiencias y como me dice las cosas claras. Doy gracias de haberla encontrado porque sin ella no hubiera salido de donde estaba. La recomiendo 100%. Es fantástica y mientras pueda, no quiero dejarla!
