What is Clinical Psychology?

Clinical Psychology is the area dedicated to assessment, diagnosis and treatment of emotional, cognitive, behavioral and relational difficulties.

The clinical psychologist helps children and adolescents understand their emotions, thoughts and behaviors, deal with life's challenges and develop strategies to overcome them.

Whether in difficult phases, with anxiety, persistent sadness and stress, or to promote self-knowledge, Clinical Psychology offers a safe space to grow and find balance.

What are the types of psychotherapy?

There are several approaches within Clinical Psychology, such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Psychoanalysis, Jungian Therapy, Analytical-Behavioral Therapy, among others.

Each one works differently on thoughts, emotions and behaviors.

At NeuroImprove, we mainly use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), for its sound scientific basis and proven efficacy in a variety of conditions.

What is CBT?

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the relationship between thoughts, emotions and behaviors.

It helps the child or adolescent to identify patterns of thinking distorted or negative, which may be at the origin of their emotional suffering.

With the support of the psychologist, strategies are developed to reformulate thoughts, modify dysfunctional behaviors and deal with everyday challenges in a more balanced way.

It is a structured, practical and goal-oriented, indicated for persistent emotional difficulties or more specific issues.

Child Psychology

Childhood is a fundamental phase for emotional and social development.

We help children and adolescents to deal with:

  1. Separation anxiety, phobias or excessive fears
  2. Attention difficulties or hyperactivity
  3. Behavioral problems and emotional management
  4. Mood swings or persistent sadness
  5. School or social difficulties
  6. Adaptation processes (school changes, separation of parents, loss of relatives)

The follow-up of Child Psychology also includes support and guidance to parents, promoting a systemic and collaborative approach.

Online or Face-to-face Psychology

During the initial assessment, we help define the most appropriate option.

The modality face-to-face is the most suitable for children and adolescents, as it favors concentration and direct contact with the psychologist.

It is also the best option when integrated with Neurofeedback, being common to organize both sessions on the same day, to facilitate logistics and optimize treatment.

In case of teenagers, the online consultation can be considered, depending on the situation, especially in cases of difficulty of travel or limited hours.

What other families are saying

My daughter had a lot of anxiety that was even affecting her at school level but thanks to this treatment she improved immensely. This would be very noticeable in school and it does not seem the same. I recommend.

I really liked the accompaniment. What we want to improve is always taken into account and affects us the most. I am a completely different person, much calmer and more focused. Neurofeedback makes all the difference! I strongly advise those who manage to get green for this type of treatment

I liked it from the care to the treatment, my son is 8 years old suffers from anxiety and has attention deficit. With the help of neurofeedback you can already control your anxiety, you are calmer and more confident and your attention has improved a lot.

I found a friend at the NeuroImprove Clinic when I was already desperate because all the doors were closing for my son. Today he is a teenager with friends and a super normal life, and with a very strong self-esteem. This achievement of mine is due to this magnificent clinic that has a team of excellent professionals.
