    I accompany young people, adults and the elderly to reconnect with their mental health, their human potential, and a healthier lifestyle. The opinions of some of my patients confirm my attentive listening attitude, making them feel confident, the conservation of professional secrecy, and the importance of evaluating the emotional, family, work, spiritual, cognitive, and even educational spheres. As a clinical NeuroPsychologist graduated from UNAM, I combine my knowledge of Psychology (UDLA) with experience in pre-hospital medicine, which has led me to help people in crisis, traumatic events, loss of mental abilities, grief, stress, and anxiety. I see patients in other countries in consultation, who speak English, Spanish, or Italian. I also conduct psychological evaluations for various purposes and reports to authorities. You have the freedom to decide your treatment and its length, from the first sessions. I am here to accompany you and provide you with tools that will serve you in daily life, not just in the psychologist's office. I offer play therapy for children and adolescents to reduce tension and express what cannot be said in words through actions.

    Luz has brought light to my life. She has been working with me for about 6 months and I’ve seen amazing changes in all aspects of my life. She is very detailed. Her EMDR sessions are very effective and I look forward to our sessions every week. We do our therapy in English as it is much easier to express myself. I would highly recommend therapy with her if you are considering it.

    Very good first session. She was very empathetic, made me feel confident and took the time to understand my case in detail. She left me with clear tasks to work on between sessions. Good start to the process.

    I believe the intention to provide a service did exist, however, the tools provided to me seemed deficient (I do not consider recommending a social media account to be coherent, since my intention to invest money in a professional service is quality help and not simple internet posts), in addition to limiting the consultation to a point of interest different from my main reason for consultation, which I made clear from the beginning. Finally, I felt a certain degree of unprofessionalism and that did not leave me very comfortable to develop my concerns. Overall, the space felt improvised, and I obtained no benefit from the therapy.

    I explained my situation and told her that I suffered from anxiety and depression, in addition to telling her about some of the problems I had around me. Her response was: "well, girls like you, who wear makeup and dress well, maybe that's the problem". Then she started telling me that it could be due to my diet and that I should get brain studies done. She also mentioned that she would send me an application to relax, but she never did. I did not feel empathy or genuine interest on her part; rather I had the impression that she only wanted to get paid and that she judged my problems based on my appearance. After the session I felt worse, so I decided not to schedule more appointments with this psychologist.

    It is the first time I have worked with a psychologist, I know that the journey is just beginning, but I know that with Luz's guidance I will work on my weaknesses and strengthen my strengths. Her active listening, and the freedom with which I can communicate, the assertive advice, generate trust and in turn generate an impact that in the long run will translate (as I mentioned before) into improvements not only in my personal life, but also in my professional life.

    The facilities leave much, much to be desired, you don't feel comfortable. They only seat you in a very uncomfortable chair in front of a desk. In the same room there are things in bags and boxes and honestly you don't feel comfortable at all. Regarding the attention from the licensed professional, I felt that she listened to me, paid attention to me and understood me. She gave me many pieces of advice and accurate opinions and some somewhat bold ones for my first session. But at the end of the session, no objectives were set, nothing was defined, we didn't even schedule another appointment, I only felt heard but not with a plan focused on my feelings. Still, I'm very grateful that she listened to me and I wish her the best success in the world.

    About Medical Conditions & Treatments

    How many ketamine treatments for depression?

    Ketamine treatment for depression typically involves an initial series of 6-8 infusions over 2-4 weeks, administered by qualified psychiatrists in Mexico. The exact number varies based on individual response and severity of symptoms. Our English-speaking psychiatrists provide ketamine therapy following international protocols, with each session lasting 40-60 minutes under medical supervision. Most patients experience improvement after 2-3 treatments, with optimal results after completing the initial series. Maintenance treatments may be scheduled every 2-6 weeks depending on your response. All ketamine treatments in Mexico are conducted in accredited medical facilities with proper monitoring equipment and emergency protocols.

    Is anxiety a disability?

    Anxiety can qualify as a disability when it substantially limits major life activities such as working, socializing, or performing daily tasks. In Mexico, anxiety disorders may qualify for disability benefits through IMSS or private insurance when properly documented by qualified psychiatrists. Our English-speaking mental health specialists provide comprehensive evaluations to determine disability status, including functional capacity assessments and detailed documentation of how anxiety impacts work performance and daily functioning. We help expatriates and travelers navigate both Mexican and international disability systems, ensuring proper medical documentation meets all requirements for successful disability claims and workplace accommodations.
