Neuropsychological stimulation and rehabilitation for adultsDealing with cognitive challenges? Looking for a friendly expert to guide you? Do not look any further! I specialize in psychological consulting services designed exclusively for you.
Cognitive stimulation and rehabilitation in young adults is essential to enhance and maintain optimal brain performance.
Some key ideas that summarize its importance:
Continuous Development: Cognitive rehabilitation allows for continued development of the brain, strengthening cognitive skills and promoting stronger mental performance.
Adaptation to Challenges: Facing cognitive challenges strengthens the brain's ability to adapt and respond effectively to complex situations in daily life and work.
Prevention of Future Problems: Cognitive stimulation can help prevent future cognitive problems and reduce the risk of cognitive decline associated with aging.
Improved Academic and Work Performance: Strengthening cognition contributes to better academic and work performance, since skills such as memory, concentration and problem solving are optimized.
Emotional Well-being: Cognitive health is linked to emotional well-being. Cognitive rehabilitation can improve stress management, decision making, and emotional regulation.
Promoting Autonomy: Strengthening cognitive skills allows young adults to be more autonomous, making informed decisions and facing challenges independently.
Innovation and Creativity: Cognitive stimulation encourages innovation and creativity by boosting the brain's ability to think flexibly and generate new ideas.
Development of Social Skills: Improving cognition also benefits social skills, facilitating more effective communication and strengthening interpersonal relationships.
As a professor in Psychology, my career includes extensive experience in the design and guidance of neuropsychological evaluation, stimulation and rehabilitation processes focused on adults.
In this course, I offer you a personalized cognitive stimulation and rehabilitation program that will be designed in a custom way.
The program is based on the use of specialized tools for those people who wish to improve their cognitive skills, such as attention, memory, language and executive functions. It is aimed at those who have experienced brain injuries with sequelae (head trauma, stroke or degenerative diseases), those who face temporary dysfunctions that affect their usual cognitive functioning and those adults who prioritize comprehensive development and quality of life.

Science , Chemistry, Biology ,Public Health and Health BasicsOnce upon a time, I found science, math and health courses a bit tricky, just like you might. But guess what? I didn't let that stop me. Instead, I turned the tough parts into stepping stones for success.

Now, imagine this: I'm not just a tutor; I'm someone who conquered the subjects that once seemed really hard. Science, math, and health-related courses became my friends in life, leading me to a place where I want to help you succeed.

Dance & Therapy session | Transcendental EmbodimentAre you seeking for a creative and uplifting way to consciously reconnect with yourself ? Transcendental Embodiment is a dance practice that will guide you to embrace your emotions and help you to reach your true authentic self. Through meditative dances, guided imageries, and energy healing modalities.
I am here to support and guide you in your process of discovering your inner power through:
- chakras alignment, guided meditation, breathing exercises
- self-expression & subjective experience through dance
- expanding your heart space, emotional awareness, and healing in movement and dance
- release of stress, judgment, and trapped emotions
- grounding, self-care, resilience
- and more...
The sessions are tailored to the specific needs and capabilities of each individual.
*Dance can be a practice of introspection, transformation, and transcendence of one’s subjective experiences into a worldwide journey.
*
As a professional dancer, teacher, and performance maker I am introspectively processing each working day in consciousness, listening to my upcoming emotions, triggers, or anxiety when it comes to be physically and mentally performative in a team, or as a freelance artist.
Instead of suppressing these emotions and creating energetical and mental blockages (that can end up into somatic pains or burn-out): we should pay more attention to these inner warning messages and strengthen our emotional intelligence to be able to cope with the infinitesimal external stimulus and daily-stress of our very fast lives.
It can be challenging to sense with clarity what is the origin of some feelings of frustration, unsatisfaction, discomfort, or grief, and it can be intimidating or discouraging to walk alone on that path.
This class helps you to commit to your better-being, presence to oneself countering wellness procrastination.
* What do you need to feel lighter, brighter, or happier in your everyday life? *
* What is your self-achievement potentiality? *
- For who? : For anyone who enjoys movement and dance, and desires a better connection and understanding with their moving bodies. / One-to-one or group sessions.
- Where? : Online via SKYPE or at the student's location.
Values: Integrity, Transparency, Respect, Cooperation
* About TE :
Transcendental Embodiment (TE) is the result of three years of research and development. Merging from a movement philosophy research entitled Behind & Beyond, to its phenomenological understanding. The metaphysical unity of the tangible and intangible bodies expounds on the undeniable relationships between those in the physical realm. The tangible body (the material vehicle), the intangibles bodies (psychological, emotional, energetical, and spiritual). As a dance healing practice, guiding the practitioner to conscious corporeality, and subjective emotional understanding, this methodology can also be a useful tool to improve artistry and technical skills on a deeper level, widening mindful creativity, awareness, empathy, and sensitivity.
(TE) movement and dance methodology combines a meditative approach in stillness and through movement, awakening the mind, spreading the awareness into different body parts; putting a specific emphasis on improvisation skills, and musicality, following energy impulses and intuitive movement and increasing the flow of energy. Inviting the practitioners to practice resilience, non-self definition, non-judgment, self-care and self-love, integrity, and acceptance to overcome technical, physical, and mental limits holding the practitioner from his self-achievement potentiality. This approach builds itself crescendo on subjective movement reflexivity and introspective journey through the following process:

Being | Investigation | Exploration | Dedication
