About Me – Licensed Psychologist with International Experience
My name is Carmen Baquedano Bellot, and I am a licensed psychologist based in Alicante, with over ten years of experience supporting individuals in their personal growth, emotional healing, and psychological well-being. Throughout my career, I have accompanied people through moments of difficulty, inner conflict, life transitions, and the search for meaning—always from a human, respectful, and integrative perspective.
I believe in therapy as a space where people can reconnect with themselves, their emotional needs, and their own resources. My work is grounded in presence, active listening, and the deep conviction that change and healing are possible when we feel seen, heard, and accepted.
An International Journey: 3 Years Studying in Barcelona and 10 years Working in London
A significant part of my personal and professional path unfolded in the UK, where I lived for seven years. During my time in London, I combined different areas of experience that deeply enriched my therapeutic approach. I was exposed to a wide variety of cultures, identities, and life stories, which shaped my understanding of human complexity and strengthened my ability to work with diverse populations.
Living abroad helped me develop an even more inclusive and compassionate view of psychological care. I worked with individuals from different countries, languages, and belief systems, often navigating the challenges of adaptation, identity, and emotional regulation in multicultural environments. This international experience allowed me to further develop my ability to offer a safe and respectful space, particularly for clients going through processes of migration, integration, or personal reinvention.
I also deepened my clinical training during those years, expanding my theoretical and practical foundations and exploring new therapeutic resources. I had the opportunity to integrate various psychotherapeutic approaches, which I now combine in my day-to-day work with clients.
My Approach: Integrative, Humanistic, and Tailored to Each Person
In my practice, I combine tools from different psychological schools, always adapting them to the needs and rhythms of each individual. My foundation is integrative, rooted in humanistic, relational, and experiential models.
Some of the approaches I draw from include:
- Gestalt Therapy, which emphasizes awareness, presence, and responsibility.
- Attachment Theory and Trauma-Informed Models, to understand how early relational patterns shape emotional regulation and adult relationships.
- Emotion-Focused Work, helping clients identify, express, and transform their emotional experiences.
My work is oriented toward creating a therapeutic alliance based on trust, authenticity, and respect. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all formulas, but in co-creating with each person the space and rhythm they need. I accompany both individuals and couples in processes of:
- Anxiety, depression, and emotional distress
- Self-esteem and personal development
- Relationship and intimacy difficulties
- Identity and existential crises
- Grief and life transitions
- Childhood trauma and attachment wounds
- Cross-cultural adaptation and experiences of migration
Therapy with Me: A Space to Feel, Understand, and Transform
I see therapy as a shared journey. One in which you can reconnect with yourself, explore your emotional world, understand what is happening inside you, and begin to make choices that are more aligned with your values and your well-being.
My role is not to «diagnose and fix» you, but to accompany you with presence and depth, supporting you in your own process of awareness, healing, and empowerment. I am committed to providing a space that is safe, warm, and non-judgmental—where all parts of you are welcome.
I offer sessions in English and Spanish, both in person in Alicante and online. My international background allows me to work comfortably with people who are living abroad, facing cultural transitions, or navigating multiple identities.
If you’re looking for a therapist who will walk beside you, who sees you in your complexity and humanity, and who offers a calm and grounded presence, I’d be honored to accompany you.
Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you’d like to know more or schedule a first session.
