Impostor Syndrome: Treatment with IFS Therapy to Overcome Toxic Self-Demand

You have a good CV, you’ve been promoted or you’ve passed difficult civil service exams. Everyone around you congratulates you and sees you as an intelligent and capable person. However, inside, you feel a knot in your stomach and a voice whispering: “It was luck. You don’t really know what you’re doing. Sooner or later they will realize you’re a fraud.” If you live with the constant fear of being “found out,” you are experiencing Read more

Emotional Responsibility and Healthy Relationships: LGTBIQ+ Affirmative Psychology in Málaga

Getting to know someone today can feel like walking through a minefield.

At PsicoDiversa, we understand that building healthy relationships Read more

Somatization and Trauma: How EMDR Helps Heal Physical and Emotional Pain

You have been to your primary care doctor, you’ve been referred to specialists, you’ve had blood tests, X-rays, and MRIs. And after weeks of uncertainty, the doctor looks at you and says: “Physically you are perfectly fine. This is all due to stress.” You go home with a prescription for muscle relaxants and a deep sense of being misunderstood. Because your head is pounding, your stomach is burning, and your chest feels tight — and Read more

What is Gaslighting in a Relationship: Therapy to Recover Your Self-Esteem After Manipulation

‘Maybe I made it up?’, ‘Maybe I’m the one exaggerating everything?’, ‘I feel like I’m going crazy.’ If these phrases constantly run through your mind after arguing with your partner, and you find yourself apologizing for things you’re not even sure you did, it is very likely that you are experiencing one of the most subtle and destructive forms of manipulation that exist: gaslighting.

Anxious and Avoidant Attachment: How to Break Free from the Trap with Individual Therapy

It’s like an exhausting choreography where no one wins. You try to get closer, ask for attention, or talk about the problems in the relationship, and your partner becomes overwhelmed, puts up an icy wall, or simply runs away. Seeing that distance, your anxiety spikes, you pursue them more, and their wall becomes even higher. Finally, when you give up and pull away out of sheer exhaustion, suddenly the other person starts seeking you out Read more

Emotional Hunger and Anxiety: Online and In-Person Psychological Treatment to Stop Binge Eating

You’ve had an exhausting day at work, you’ve argued with your partner, or you simply feel a knot in your stomach that you can’t quite explain. Suddenly, you find yourself in front of the fridge or the pantry, looking for something specific — usually something sweet or ultra-processed. You eat quickly, almost without tasting it, seeking relief that lasts only a few minutes. And then… the guilt arrives. If this pattern repeats in your life, Read more

However, at PsicoDiversa Málaga, we use creative expression for a very different purpose: we are not trying to create a museum-worthy artwork, but to build a safe bridge to your Read more

Work Addiction (Workaholism): When Being “Hyper-Productive” Hides an Emotional Void

You are the first to arrive at the office and the last to leave. You check your email while having dinner, during weekends, and even on holidays. People around you praise your dedication, your bosses value you, and society labels you as a “successful” and “focused” person. But when you finally turn off your computer and are left alone in silence, what do you feel? If the answer is overwhelming anxiety, a sense of emptiness, Read more

Childhood Wounds: How Trauma Shapes the Way You Love in Adulthood

Do you tend to fall in love with people who are emotionally unavailable? Are you terrified that your partner will abandon you at the slightest disagreement?
