About me

Marilza Santana Psychoanalyst

I am Marilza Santana, a psychoanalyst, sex therapist, and human development specialist, focusing on the emotional health of people living outside their country of origin. I am Brazilian and have lived in Spain for over 20 years. In my therapeutic work, I identify how external or internal demands exceed the resources you perceive you have to cope with them. In the case of immigrants, this state is often intensified by cultural adaptation, work pressure, and family distance. I explore how your unconscious mind repeats patterns of tension and how past experiences influence your reactions to current difficulties. My commitment is to provide you with a safe, confidential, and trustworthy space where you can progress at your own pace.

Therapeutic support for your emotional well-being

The effectiveness of my work in this process lies in helping you transform overload into self-awareness, develop healthier internal strategies, and strengthen your sense of self. My goal is for you not only to reduce discomfort but also to build lasting emotional tools for a better life. A safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space, wherever you are.

I help transform emotional pain into personal growth, especially in cases of immigration, crisis, and loss of identity.

Do you feel lonely living in another country?

With my guidance in the analysis, new ways of managing anxiety are developed without resorting to isolation. The process allows for a reinterpretation of personal history and strengthens self-esteem, so that solitude ceases to be a refuge and becomes an opportunity for growth and freedom.

Professionalism and tailored to immigrants, already adapted to your intercultural experience in another country.

Support in immigration processes

Immigrant grief involves saying goodbye to one's homeland, language, and family ties. Immigrants suffer an intangible loss that is often not acknowledged by society. One of my areas of expertise is helping them process their emotional losses and inner emptiness.

In-depth and personalized work

My approach goes beyond the symptoms, seeking the emotional root of what you're experiencing. Each process is unique and tailored to your needs.
