Carla Nomen

Licensed Psychologist

I specialize in integrative therapy, combining mind and body practices like Leibtherapy (psycho-body therapy), centering techniques, Zen, and mindfulness. My approach is designed to help you reduce anxiety, rediscover your core self, connect with serenity, feel deeply aligned within, and achieve lasting inner balance.

About Me

As a Licensed Psychologist, I specialise in integrative therapy, guiding you to connect mind and body. We use practices like Leibtherapy and mindfulness to gently explore what causes anxiety. My approach helps you rediscover your core self and cultivate serenity. This holistic path is ideal for those seeking lasting inner balance and a profound sense of alignment.

Approach

You’ll find the work alternates between gentle attention to bodily signals and short, grounding practices that help you clarify what’s driving anxiety and exhaustion. Sessions in Barcelona or online, in Catalan, Spanish or English, move at a steady, collaborative pace — sometimes somatic centering, sometimes focused reflection — with simple exercises to practise between meetings. I guide pacing and coping strategies for chronic illness, burnout, mood shifts and relationship strain, helping you notice small shifts that add up. This way suits adults and couples looking for grounded, sustainable change.
