Dr. Ana Luisa R. Pimentel

With a deep understanding of the complexity of the human experience, my practice focuses on addressing the biological, psychological, and social dimensions that influence mental health. My goal is to provide a warm and supportive space where you can explore your emotions, thoughts, and behaviours, and find solutions that promote greater well-being in your life. I work under the supervision of Dr. Lara Kalaf and Dr. Ann Gamsa.

I work with adults dealing with depression, anxiety, stress, adaptive processes, and grief. I'm here to help you face the challenges you may be experiencing. I use an integrative approach that combines humanistic and cognitive-behavioural techniques tailored to your individual needs and preferences.

I have trained healthcare professionals and teachers on mental health topics and have conducted workshops and conferences for parents on mental health. I am also the author of scientific articles and book chapters on psychological autopsy and depression.

Understanding the importance of being able to communicate in the language in which you feel most comfortable, I offer my services in both English and Spanish. I firmly believe in the importance of inclusivity and accessibility in psychological care. No matter what challenges you're facing, you don't have to face them alone.
