ACT/CBS Background and Training: I completed a diploma program at CEFTEC (Centro de Estudios en Psicoterapia Contextual), where I received comprehensive training in contextual behavioral science, with an emphasis on third-wave approaches. This training covered both theoretical foundations and practical tools grounded in CBS principles.
I am also currently enrolled in a second diploma program focused on behavior analysis and behavior modification, which is set to begin soon. This will further expand my understanding of core behavioral principles and their application from a contextual perspective.
In addition to formal education, I have pursued self-directed learning through reading books, attending conferences, and studying key authors in the field of contextual behavioral science. This ongoing independent study has helped me deepen my knowledge and stay updated on recent developments in the area.

ACT/CBS Experience: I completed a clinical internship during my undergraduate studies. I currently work as a clinical psychologist in private practice.
Additional Information: I am deeply interested in continuing to deepen my knowledge of contextual behavioral science, particularly in behavior analysis and third-wave therapeutic approaches. I am also drawn to clinical research and teaching, as I see both as meaningful ways to contribute to the development and dissemination of evidence-based practices.
