Thank you very much for your support in my case to start my treatment. It is not so easy to find English speaking help, but you were very nice right away and you did help a lot to find the next steps in my journey.

I've had a great experience with Therapy in Barcelona, and I highly recommend Clara. From the very beginning, she created a space where I felt comfortable, heard, and understood. She's incredibly empathetic, thoughtful, and has a way of helping me see things from a different perspective without ever making me feel judged. Working with Clara has given me more clarity and helped me navigate difficult situations with greater confidence. I'm genuinely grateful for her support and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and professional therapist.

I can’t recommend Clara enough. She’s helped me through some incredibly traumatic life events with warmth, compassion, and practical guidance. She’s also given me invaluable tools to manage the daily overwhelm of motherhood and better navigate life with ADHD. Even though our sessions are online, she makes them feel incredibly personal. She’s so easy to talk to, and I always feel heard, supported, and understood. My husband has also had a wonderful experience with his therapist through Therapy in Barcelona, seeing them in person in Madrid. We’ve both been so grateful to find such thoughtful, caring professionals through this practice.

I've done therapy at Therapy in Barcelona for a couple of years now and I thoroughly recommend it, and the therapists that work there. Everybody is very helpful and professional, including the administration and onboarding staff I was in contact with at the beginning. In particular, my therapist Hanna was a perfect fit for me. She helped me enormously through some painful moments. She's a gentle soul but also intuitive and not afraid to say what needs to be said. She's organized and gave plenty of information about where we were and where we could go, which I found invaluable. I'm extremely satisfied with the work we have done together and where my journey has taken me.

When I got in touch with Therapy in Barcelona, I quickly received answers on my emails. I already picked a therapist I would like to work with from the various and detailed profiles on the website. I was advised on how well I would fit with this therapist and within a couple of days I had my first appointment... it was even possible to have them online. I really appreciated this option!
I can highly recommend Therapy In Barcelona for anyone who is looking for welcoming, respectful, professional, and highly qualified therapists. The environment is very comfortable and relaxed, and the process of being 'matched' with a therapist is very simple and easy.
Therapy in Barcelona has been invaluable to me since I began my mental health journey. My therapist was a constant source of support and guidance who listened and gave me advice which I was able to implement into my daily life. I would definitely recommend getting in contact with them to work through any mental health issues you wish to address.
After only a couple of sessions I feel much better and happier. I want to become more self-confident and stable in my life. Already now, I see a lot of progress and a clear aim that both me and my therapist work towards to. Overall, I'm very happy and cannot say that I would like to change anything. I look forward to have more sessions just like the ones I had before. Thank you, guys!
Deciding to take therapy is a really personal, difficult decision and it's also a very good and welcoming first step towards becoming a better version of yourself. Therapy in Barcelona is highly recommended as they make sure you match with a therapist most suitable to work with you. The intake process is also really smooth :)
I think the recommended therapist is very on point for me. I can feel that we can relate in certain aspects and it does make it easier for me to share my feelings. It's my first time going to a therapy so I was a bit nervous but I felt good after the first session. The appointment process is smooth.

Not sure if therapy is right for you?

Do you feel like therapy won’t help or that your problems aren’t “big enough” to seek support? Maybe you feel ashamed to ask for help or unsure if an English-speaking therapist in Barcelona is what you need.
