Meet Montse

Hola, and welcome

I'm Montse — a human first, person-centred Somatic Counsellor.

B.A. Psychology · MSc Neuroscience · Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP)

I'm deeply introspective, a dancer at heart, and courageously devoted to growth.

In my practice, I weave embodied awareness, attuned intuition, and insights from neuroscience to help renegotiate trauma and return to a more empowered way of living.

With roots in Mexico and Spain, I carry both cultures with me, and I move between Catalan, Spanish, English and French.

Areas of interest

Listening to what
the body remembers.

01

Trauma & the nervous system

Trained in Somatic Experiencing®, I'm drawn to how the nervous system holds what we live through, and how, in small and gentle steps, it can rediscover its natural capacity to settle.

02

Food, body & self-image

From my MSc research on eating disorders and mindfulness to my training with the Embodied Recovery Institute, I care deeply about how we relate to food and to the bodies we live in.

03

Self-compassion & transitions

Inspired by Kristin Neff's Mindful Self-Compassion work, I believe in cultivating a kinder inner voice, one that meets us with the same warmth we offer others.
