About me
I am Maribel Alfonso, a Clinical Psychologist and Psychotherapist. I was born in Mexico City and lived in Berlin for 10 years. I currently live in New Delhi, India, where I provide online therapy to clients around the world.
My own experience of living in different countries and cultures has deeply shaped the way I understand psychotherapy. Throughout my professional career, I have worked across Latin America, Europe, Africa, and Asia, supporting migrants, women experiencing violence, and people affected by conflict and crisis. These experiences have shaped my intercultural and gender-sensitive approach, with an emphasis on understanding each person within the context of their individual history and circumstances.
I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Universidad Iberoamericana in Mexico City and later completed a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy at Medical School Berlin, Germany. In recent years, I have specialized in supporting people experiencing problematic alcohol, drug, or medication use, as well as their families. I also work with anxiety, stress and burnout, self-care, migration-related challenges, family and workplace difficulties, emotional education, and crisis intervention.
In addition to my clinical training, I am a 200-hour Yoga Teacher certified by Yoga Alliance and a Mindfulness Teacher, with both trainings completed at Adwait Yoga School in New Delhi, India. I integrate these practices into my work when they can support well-being, emotional regulation, and a deeper connection between mind and body.
My aim is to offer a safe, warm, and non-judgmental space where you can talk openly about what you are experiencing, gain a deeper understanding of your emotions, and develop resources to navigate life’s challenges. I believe in an individualized approach to therapy that respects each person’s history, needs, and unique circumstances.
If you feel that I could support you on this journey, I invite you to get in touch so we can connect and explore whether working together feels right for you.
