PROYECTO DE ZERO

"Muchas gracias Valeria, me has ayudado mucho a abrir mi mente y a reflexionar más para no cerrarme tanto en todas mis emociones y mi manera de ver la vida ha cambiado, claramente nuestras sesiones juntas han contribuido mucho! Tu manera tan increíble y humana de trabajar, con tu guía y tu apoyo has logrado transformar corazones. EL padre de mi hijo se encuentra muy agradecido con las sesiones que hicimos Londres-Ecuador online. Por tu ayuda, dice que ha podido darse cuenta también que en ocasiones las cosas no son como parecen y el amor tan bonito que tuvimos del cual vino nuestro hijo no ha desaparecido y Dios mediante y gracias a las sesiones de Terapia de Pareja que tuvimos, puede ser que en breve podamos volver a  estar juntos nuevamente. Te agradezco por todo, Vale".

J., Londres, UK

Nuesta hija estuvo internada en un Psiquiátrico por intentar suicidarse.

"Valeria desde el comienzo rescató todo su potencial. Comenzamos a advertir un gran cambio en nuestra hija, comenzó a  comprobar que podía y ese fue el motor que Vale encendió nuevamente en ella. Así  retomó sus estudios y su secundario después de un año y medio sin ir, ya no de pocas horas como hacía a veces sino jornada completa. De la mano de Valeria, junto al espíritu de superación que tuvo ante cada dificultad pudo ir superando. Vale le decía que era como una Super Heroína, que la derrotaban en una batalla pero que al otro día se levantaba para presentar pelea.

De esta manera empezó a interactuar con sus pares, finalizar la cursada y dar las materias adeudas en Diciembre. Se fue de vacaciones una semana con amigas cuando antes no podía sostener un par de horas con sus pares.

Al día de hoy, está sin medicación hace  más de medio año, bajó 15 kilos, se ha llenado de proyectos que Valeria, con su terapia ayuda a encausar. Volvió a estar viva y llena de energía. Está reencontrándose con la adolescente que es hoy, recuperando su vida de la mano de Vale, que nos va marcando el camino. Encontrar a Valeria fue para nosotros esa luz del otro lado del túnel cuando todo nuestro panorama era oscuro y le estamos eternamente agradecidos."

"Mi hija ha pasado por varias Psicólogas sin buenos resultados, hasta que llegó Valeria, una PROFESIONAL como pocas, donde pone en primer lugar a la persona a tratar, hoy G. después de varios meses desaparecieron síntomas graves que tenía y pasó de ser una persona introvertida a expresar lo que siente, lo que necesita y lo que quiere. También a recapacitar y darse cuenta cuando está equivocada, cosa que le costaba bastante. También me ha ayudado a mí como padre, ya que es muy difícil a veces saber como manejar bien las cosas. Valeria no sólo trabaja en la mente de las personas que llegan a ella, sino también en su corazón. Lo difícil lo hace fácil y lo imposible, posible".

It was a very positive experience doing Therapy with Valerie. I really was very rudderless when I arrived, but she has been able to help me formulate my thoughts patterns in a more positive way. Hence I have made considerable progress on this journey. I have received counselling before but this has been by far the most influential. I will miss these sessions!"

Me hiciste más fuerte, me hiciste mejor. Infinitas gracias".

D. Buenos Aires, Argentina

I was very happy to meet Valerie, someone who was able to sit sown and listen my story of my only child Krystal that went on holiday and did not return back to me. She helped me to grief and heal. She makes me realize that I have to keep on living, she gave me hope. Some days I was  feeling so down but after seeing Valerie I was able to feel joy and to feel better and deal with all this pain. Thank God for the hope and strength that Valerie gave me to write a book about Krystal´s death...she never returned back to her mum. Thank you Valerie for your encouragement and support.

Veníamos perdidos entre años de ver otros terapeutas y psiquiatras para nuestro hijo adolescente. La forma de trabajar y pensar de Valeria es revolucionaria e única. Tiene una formación y una experiencia increíble. Nuestro hijo es otra persona, nuestra familia también. No hay palabras que alcancen para recomendar a Valeria y para agradecerle todo lo que nos ha ayudado".

​

Familia M., Córdoba, Argentina

Valerie, thank you so much for everything you have done for my son. You have really changed his life and brought back the old loud and confident T. I really can´t thank you enough. He is so happy with his life now and doing amazing. Honestly I am so glad you became his therapist. You are amazing! Again, Thank you!

​

Lisa, London UK

​

I write to thank the service for your support for my daughter, R., through her illness. 

It is fair to say that our initial months of contact with the service were problematic in some ways. However, Dr N., the nutritionists assigned to R. and, most importantly, her last therapist Valerie were all hugely supportive and professional. We are especially grateful for Valerie's painstaking care and compassion, her good level of organisation (always showing up to appointments and setting then in advance at times that worked well for R.) and her deep understanding of the process of overcoming Anorexia and how parents like us could help were all so welcome".  

Thank you again.

I've heard and saw the charity that you have to give to others, the travelling that you have done to work with people in different countries, and that you have been in service when you have done that. And that takes a selflessness that has been apparent to me, absolutely beautiful, to have that selflessness, because that, it means that I'm talking to somebody who's clean, who is getting up and taking real action.

If you were to run a workshop, that's the workshop that I would encourage you to run: "How to listen to your gut and use your faith", whatever that faith is, to be the anchor to your purpose and then to follow it. Where shall I go? What can I do? How can I give?

​

Because that's, you have been living, your action is your living, your living is your action. You're walking your talk.

I love that. So in many ways, when I met you, I thought, Oh my God!, I wish I could be like this woman who is walking her talk, she's following her passion. She's showing me that she have traveled the world healing and helping people.

You've been fearless. When you talk, I'm wide-eyed in listening to you. You said to me you were a tiny ant doing your work in this world. So, ant, please do not ever describe yourself as an ant, because you are not, well, actually, maybe you are an ant, but a Queen  ant, because you are the epitome of what it is to feel connected and to understand that you cannot live in this world as an individual and glean from the world without actually having the love and the faith of understanding that I cannot enjoy this plate of food if somebody else is going without.

​

You are very much an example of that. So when I met you, I thought, right, I remember I flirted with the idea years and years and years ago, I'm talking good 20 years ago, of being a Psychologist. And then when I met you, I thought, “That's exactly the psychologist that I would want to be”. I've seen psychiatrists and psychologists, all of them. They're the most driest, dry, cracker dry, dry people who operate in this very linear way. “Hello, I am Professor So-and-so, or Dr. So-and-so, and I'm going to present myself”, putting a wall in front of the patient, instead of engaging.

So you for me was a beautiful example of colour, of passion, of joy, of kindness, of selflessness, all of those things that woke me up to, well, okay, maybe I can carve out a version of myself. So, you are a queen ant. Remember. This is your power. 

I didn't even know what I was going to do with my life until I started talking to you. So that's the beauty of you. You know, today I thought to myself, what am I going to talk to Valerie about in our session and look at what we're talking. That's the beauty of our connection. Thank you Val, for sharing your light with me, it is deep within me. Thank you for being my lighthouse, steering me off the rocks into calmer waters. You are a beautiful soul".

I'm sorry to have missed the opportunity to say goodbye and thank you at the end of the last session too. Since then, I have been ridiculously busy at work and wanted to think about the words below a little too. 

I wanted to say a very heartfelt thanks for all you have done working with L. and ourselves. We were completely unprepared for L.'s illness. She opened up so well in therapy with you after some bad experiences with other therapists and I am certain it was mainly down to your professionalism and compassion. These qualities are hard for all professionals to sustain throughout the decades of their careers, but from the start it was clear that they drive everything you do in your work. 

Therapy is not easy - remote therapy even less so. But I never doubted I could trust my daughter's care to you. And slowly, tiny step by tiny step, she regained her health and love of food. 

My wife and I are so very grateful for what you have empowered L. to do. 

John H., London UK

Valerie has given me insight into myself and life, also some coping strategies to deal with painful events such as grief and death.

Since my sessions started, she has been very good in helping me see why/how 

I´m stuck in negative beliefs, as of now I'm searching into doing/ changing my life from a blank canvas into having structure, purpose  and will. Valerie is absolutely amazing, non judgemental, professional and empathetic.

​

J., London, UK

My daughter aged 15 years old had been referred to Valerie, she was very professional and completely gained trust from my daughter very quickly .

She found that after a few fortnightly sessions she felt very comfortable to confide in Valerie with her body issues .

She has recently been  diagnosed with Tourette’s syndrome & FND functional neurological disorder whilst seeing Valerie and she then started CBT therapy with her. Valerie is a very talented professional counsellor and she has definitely got a talent with my teenage daughter.

We are immensely grateful! We wish you all the very best with new patient, they will be very lucky to be referred to you!

K., London, UK

My sessions with Valerie are very useful to me. I´m being heard for the first time in my life. I look forward to these sessions as they help me unload and help me understand trauma and certain events of my life clearly. I was diagnosed with BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder). 

​

A., London, UK

I felt after just one session, a huge gain of support,  awareness and understanding. You immediately feel that she really cares. She is helping me enormously.

Ch., London, UK

Soy argentina y personal de salud, y comencé terapia intrapandemia.
Llegue a través de una amiga que me la recomendó.
Acudí a ella no por el colapso del sistema de salud, sino porque fue la primera vez que pude dedicar tiempo para mi.
Vale supo adaptarse a mis tiempos, comprender mis necesidades, escucharme y acompañarme.
Así fue (como una llama de buena energía que no se apaga), que diferentes colegas me pidieron recomendación para iniciar terapia, e hice lo mismo que mi amiga hizo conmigo.
Hoy sigo con Vale, y mis colegas también.
Todos estamos muy contentos de esta gran decisión!
Ojalá todos tengamos una Vale en nuestras vidas!

L., Buenos Aires, Argentina 

Vale!, La verdad es que estoy mejor que nunca. Utilizo muchas técnicas que aprendí con vos en mi día a día la más importante y la que creo que salvó mi vida: LA MEDITACIÓN. Infinitamente agradecido!

​

T.B., Oslo, Noruega

Llegamos a Valeria recomendados por dos lugares diferentes. Nuestro matrimonio ya estaba casi acabado y fuimos en busca de consejos para como separarnos sin hacer sufrir a nuestros hijos. Nada de eso pasó. Fue ponernos en sus manos y dejarnos guiar. Trabajó en nosotros como pareja, y nos ayudó a reconstruir las bases de un sano amor, y  en cada uno de nosotros, en nuestras heridas e historias personales para que no las sigamos llevando a la relación, como lo estabamos haciendo. Valeria es una terapeuta excelente, y una persona que con su inmensa experiencia y su humanidad logra transformar vidas.
 

A., Mendoza, Argentina

Soy argentino y vivo en París. Necesitaba un terapeuta que hable español y me recomendaron a Valerie. Tuve problemas con las drogas desde mis 14 años y cada vez mi adicción se volvió más inmanejable. Mi vida era un desastre hasta que con mucha resistencia empecé terapia. Un camino doloroso pero que doy gracias a Dios por haber emprendido. Valerie es un crack. Me dió vuelta mi cabeza y mi vida por completo. Yo sigo con el Sólo por Hoy y ya llevo 3 años fuera del mundo de las drogas y teniendo sesiones con Valerie una vez al mes para no perder el foco nunca. El dinero mejor invertido de mi vida.

​

P., París, Francia

For the longest time I was looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate therapist that would actually be present, listen to me and that shared my same moral values. Valerie has shown me more than that. Valerie not only truly pays attention and remembers my feelings and needs to perfection, she has taught me and continues to teach me how to embrace life while dealing with life and its continuing changes. I have seen a clear change and upgrade and refinement in my life. Thanks to her therapy and guidance I feel empowered and supported. I wholeheartedly recommend Valerie's practice to everyone we know.

​

G.R., Los Angeles, California

My name is H. I´m 58 years old and I was referred to Valerie last December. I was not in a good place at all and thinking life was not worth living. I have two sons who are both married and I am trying to build up my relationship with them in a more positive, caring and respectful way. I am divorced so that is really hard me being on my own and not thinking of myself as wanted or important.

I have been attending sessions with Valerie since December and they have been very helpful. Valerie has made me see things and deal with situations differently and in a more positive approach to life and situations. Each time I see her I walk away feeling positive about things and her therapeutic approach is great and appropriate for me. Thank you , Valerie!

​

H., London, UK

We met Valery when my daughter was in her early 20s. She has been struggling with an eating disorder and self-harm behaviour since her early teens. We tried three other therapists previously who didn't seem to know what to do in our case. Valery is a fantastic therapist. She targeted the problem of our family and got to the root of it right away. All I can say is that we are a better family since we started Family Therapy with her and my daughter changed her life completely. We are forever thankful.

​

C., London, UK

About two years ago I started therapy with Valeria.I can really say that I am a completely new person. When I met Valeria and started therapy, I was a completely broken soul. I didn't know how to manage or recognise emotions. I felt empty, lost and that I was living without any meaning. I didn't know myself, I didn't know what I liked or simply what I was worth. It has been a long process of personal work, and she has been an incredible companion and guide. She helped me to open up and recognise all the things that had made me the way I was. She helped me to know myself, to understand my value and to love myself as I am. The change has been so incredible, it's amazing how mental health can limit you in your growth in life. When I started with Valeria I was totally lost, I had a terrible job and a bad relationship with food. Now, after all this process and personal work, I am my own boss and I am doing great professionally. I have managed to have a healthy relationship with food and find happiness in my body and in who I am. It's amazing how personal work and mental health can change the course of your life and achieve your dreams. Valeria's work has been incredible, she is a magnificent professional. She has always made me feel comfortable to open my deepest thoughts, she has made me feel understood and supported.
I will always have only words of gratitude for her and how she has changed my life.

B., London, UK

Since starting my sessions with Valerie , there is for sure a change in my mood and I have been able to work through some issues with her to feel more in control of my problems. I would like to thank Valerie for her time and devotions and understanding over the past months. She has helped me hugely! Thank you Valeria!

P., London, UK

Valeria, vos me llevas hacia la paz! Gracias infinitas!

G.C. Buenos Aires, Argentina

Vale para nuestra familia es un eslabón muy importante... Super agradecidos con ella, porque no sólo nos orientó profesionalmente con pautas claras sino que a través de ella aprendimos lo importante que es el amor propio y al prójimo, la comunicación y el respeto. Una profesional llena de luz.

V., Buenos Aires, Argentina

Valeria me hizo dejar la medicación que me daban hacía 5 años por ataques de pánico crónicos y depresión y no me hacían mejorar en absoluto. Me enseñó que sanar pasa por tantos otros lugares. Pude conocerme, tener herramientas concretas y comprender porque me pasaban las cosas que me pasaban. Valeria no sólo sabe mucho, sino que también es un ser con una empatía como nadie he conocido antes.

​

L., Barcelona, España

Valeria me brindó confianza, fortaleza y un amor propio jamás experimentado, y doy fe que lo que me dijo en cada sesión sucedió. Aprendí a valorarme y a cuidarme, me dio esas herramientas y sentí mi vida más liviana y agradable.
Y más allá de ser una excelente profesional es una mujer maravillosa a quién aprecio muchísimo. Con ella fue un antes y un después, sin dudas.

​

C., Buenos Aires, Argentina

My sessions to date have been incredibly useful. I have often contemplated why I have reacted to situations in the manner I have, and now realise that there probably are underlying reasons. The sessions with Valerie have enabled me to see that I do need to gather tools to counteract my immediate negative thoughts which in turn cause my anxiety.

Valerie is extremely good and explains what I am going through and the support is greatly appreciated. I know I need to continue for a while in this journey. Thank you Valerie!

​

S., London, UK

My boy was diagnosed with autism. I´m from Brazil, but I live in London. Valery helped me to care in a better way and be a much better mother with my little boy. I had terrible difficulties in controlling my temper. I am very happy!! Thank you Valerie so, so much. I am a better mother thanks to you.

​

S., London, UK

Valeria, solo te puedo decir gracias, gracias. Excelente persona, profesional, como docente y terapeuta.

nos ayudaste y acompañaste con todo tu don, capacidades y herramientas, tanto a mi como a mi hijo a salir de las zonas oscuras donde nos encontrábamos, para alcanzar nuestro potencial y sentido a la vida. Pasamos por muchos traumas, violencia, muerte, depresión, y admiro que en poco tiempo nuestras vidas fueron transformadas. 

La recomiendo, su trabajo es efectivo, transformador, dándote alas para descubrir lo maravillosa que es la vida. 

​

Con inmenso amor, Viviana

Vale fue la persona que me cambió mi forma de ver la vida! ¡Me ayudó en mis momentos más críticos a tomar decisiones  y en mis momentos de felicidad a saber valorarlos!
Admiro su forma de ver la vida y de cómo es como persona y profesional.
Gracias por siempre
Te quiero mucho.

​

S., Buenos Aires, Argentina

Consultar a Valeria me ayudó a superar un momento de angustia que no estaba sabiendo manejar y en simultáneo logramos crear un ambiente de confianza donde trabajar otros tantos temas que surgen inconscientemente.

​

G., Río de Janeiro, Brasil

I started therapy due to my depression, my anxiety, my marital problems, my sleep problems, my feeling of  life is pointless. I knew I had touched rock bottom and needed help. Valerie is so gifted at what she does! She is a compassionate, wise, experienced and such an empathic therapist. I created a new me, a new identity, a massive change in my life. I highly recommend her! You changed my life, Val!. Thank you!!

R., Ireland

La verdad tuve una óptima experiencia con Proyecto De Zero, pudimos mi familia y yo (con mi marido y mis dos hijas) reconstruirnos... sería maravilloso que todos pudieran conocer el programa de PDZ, ya que te da las herramientas necesarias para poder criar a nuestros hijos, poniendo límites sanamente y desde el amor... puras palabras de agradecimiento"...

A., Buenos Aires, Argentina

"Comencé mis encuentros con Valeria al atravesar mi divorcio. Me he sentido acompañada en los momentos de grandes decisiones. Respetando mis tiempos, ha sido siempre una importante guía en el camino a encontrarme conmigo mismo y mi valía".
 

J., Bahía Blanca, Argentina

I came to therapy struggling with recovery from Anorexia Nervosa, and I feel I have learnt new techniques of how to approach the fight against the eating disorder. It feels nice to feel able to tell someone the kind of thoughts that come to me without fear of getting judged. I look forward to seeing Valerie every week. I am gaining this battle week after week thanks to her.

​

N., London, UK

Val, me sacaste de la oscuridad cuando apenas si yo podía conmigo...remaste por mí, más de una vez. Me resguarde bajo tu ala de amor para enfrentar al mundo...ante mi nada que yo sentía mientras se construía a mi misma desde un lugar más sano, me dejé guiar y me apoyé en vos... Me guiaste por un camino de luz y alegría que yo no tenía. Dios está en vos, Dios está en tu corazón... Yo he resucitado gracias a Jesús... que me ha llegado desde vos!! Si hoy yo puedo devolverte en espejo la luz que vos construiste en mi... Soy toda agradecimiento y admiración hacia vos.

​

N., Buenos Aires, Argentina

Since speaking to Valerie about my issues, grieving, self-esteem, recovered addict from a 20 years use of heroin and cocaine that stopped 8 years ago, I started to learn new ways to deal with life stuff. My eyes have opened and I am taking on the suggestions to change the way I think and feel about myself and other stuff going on.

She has helped me  immensely to see my assets, to love and accept myself  and to try at new things, rather than sitting in my comfort zone. 

Valerie is an extraordinary therapist. She listens with her whole being.She is very helpful and I always leave our sessions feeling uplifted and with hope.

​

C., London, UK

Excelente profesional! Consultamos a Valeria por problemas de pareja y sobre todo un gran problema en nuestra sexualidad que acarreamos por años. Como terapeuta nos supo guiar y nos ayudó a sanar. Pasamos de pensar en separarnos a hoy estar más unidos que nunca. Infinitamente agradecidos con ella por siempre. Ya la hemos recomendado a todos nuestras parejas amigas. 

​

J., Madrid, España

"A friend from London recommended me to start therapy with Val. I was skeptical because I had already tried therapy but I never saw results. The sessions with Val have helped me significantly. Her holistic approach is so different to other therapies that I have been doing....She provides always the right insight and made me feel comfortable to open up and share things like all the years I have been victim of sexual abuse when I was a child. Val has helped me heal my soul and my trauma which left tremendous consequences in my life. I was able to regain my sense of control, to rebuild my self-worth and my depression and my flashbacks are completely gone.

I would definitely recommend her. Valerie is fantastic, everything she does is magic!"

​

D., Edinburgh, Scotland

Valeria fue mi terapeuta durante varios años y fue  una experiencia excelente y positiva, no sólo por su buen desempeño como profesional, si no que también me ayudó mucho en darme herramientas para poder afrontar diferentes dificultades que la vida te  va poniendo en el camino! Gracias.

​

A., Buenos Aires Argentina

Llegamos a Valeria a través de alguien de aquí que había tomado el curso de Proyecto De Zero. No hay palabras para explicar todas las maravillosas y concretas herramientas  que nos ha aportado y todo lo que hemos aprendido para ser mejores padres y tener una mejor pareja. 100% recomendado para todas las familias del mundo!
