Founder of Mentara
–
The Dual Specialization in Integrative Somato-Sensory Psychotherapy stems from a solid international partnership between Mentara (Portugal) and the Besai Center (Barcelona), built upon a profound affinity of vision, clinical practice, and human values.
This excellent training program integrates contemporary integrative psychotherapy with a deep somatic approach, centered on the body, experience, the therapeutic relationship, and conscious presence.
More than just training, it's a shared path for those who wish to care for, transform, and deepen their knowledge—personally and professionally—through a solid, ethical, and humanized clinical journey, with joint certification and an international faculty.
Approach
This specialization is more than a course: it's a profound formative experience.
Holistic
Body, mind, emotion, connection, soul, and consciousness integrated into a single vision of the human being.
Experiential
Body practices, experiential processes, clinical supervision and close monitoring.
Clinic
Based on science, therapeutic relationship, and lived experience in the body.
Transformative
An invitation to deep listening, grounding, authenticity, and the therapist's conscious presence.
With the exception of attending the specialization course in Biointegrative Somatic Psychotherapy or the Double Specialization in Somatosensory Integrative Psychotherapy, the remaining courses do not require an interview.
Most courses have different formats (in-person, online and hybrid) and students can select the format, as long as it is available.
Mentara is a training center certified by DGERT and duly accredited by EAP (an international organization), and all students will receive a certificate of attendance upon completion of the course.
Yes, in most courses it is possible to suspend attendance, and to do so you must request the Mentara course regulations.
