I’m Ana Llorens, psychologist by profession and an example of self-improvement and dedication to others. I have always been focused on helping people to achieve their goals, to make their dreams come true and above all to feel better. I graduated as an engineer, but I soon realised that what really moved me was to help others and from then on, my whole life has revolved around psychology. I started learning about the subject and read more than 800 books before deciding to take the leap and graduate as a psychologist.
The joy I feel when I see that a patient has overcome a difficult moment in their life is something indescribable and wonderful!
For me, psychology is the road to success for everyone who comes to me at difficult times for honest, professional help. I help people every day who are going through situations that we all might go through at some point in life: break-ups, especially when they involve children (they really need extra care!), third parties or new partners who join the family. I also help with toxic relationships, problems with anxiety and sleep, etc. Every case is a challenge, because each person finds themselves at a crucial moment, and you have to handle it with care and professionalism.
My main challenge is for people not to need me, because when they come to me, they have a problem they don’t know how to solve. They’re lost and my goal is to help them discover their strengths and provide them with the tools to solve their problem. When they stop needing me and they get through their difficult moment, it’s wonderful. That’s what success is!
From my personal experience, I would like to share my recipe for achieving all the professional goals I have set myself:
focus + organisation + empathy = success.
My favourite anecdote? After a session, a patient ended up laughing and realising that he didn’t really need a psychologist, but a few beers and a good chat with friends. We’re not always necessary.
My most beautiful and exciting project is my online workshop. It’s a new product where I use my own methodology: CPF©, CRECIMIENTO PERSONAL FÁCIL (EASY PERSONAL GROWTH), which has been a resounding success in my face-to-face sessions. In these times, the health crisis has left many people feeling lonely, distressed, isolated and unable to seek therapy. With my workshop I help those people to get through those times. I’ve already developed other online products that have been successful like the “RETO MEDITA 21 DÍAS” (MEDITATE 21-DAY CHALLENGE), the downloadable online courses or my book for EASY PERSONAL GROWTH. I’m also still doing my psychology YouTube channel.
Why did I choose Universidad Europea? For having professionals who know how to convey everything they know with the utmost professionalism and dedication, with the reputation and academic excellence that make the difference. UE is a leading example, and for me: an honour!
My best memory is from my first days of class, where I felt my dream was coming true. Graduating there was something I had always dreamed of, and finally I was on the path to achieving that.
My advice: believe in yourselves and fight for your dreams every day, so that your professional life is only an extension of your education at UE.
