About me

Hi, I’m Marc Hampshire. I graduated in Psychology from the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. With the feeling that I hadn’t had enough and very much wanted more, I started a learning process at the Gestalt Institute to become gestalt therapist, since from the beginning I couldn’t separate the decision to be a psychologist from my life path. That led me to an exploration and a discovery that made my desire to accompany other people in their processes and to have the confidence to do so grow.

In that journey I discovered therapy as a human relationship between two people who meet and as an accompaniment on the path of life, not a clinical force aimed at change no matter what the circumstances are. In addition, I was able to intertwine my professional development with many of my passions, such as martial arts, music and meditation. I soon discovered that the integrative vision of psychology, the one that is not guided by dogmas and that follows specific recipes, is the one that has the most success rates.

After working for a few months at the Pasqual Maragall Foundation conducting therapeutic groups for families of people suffering from Alzheimer’s disease, and with the desire to distance myself from the obsession with university degrees, masters degrees and the great crystal towers of academia, I decided to change radically and start working with children and young people at risk of social exclusion in one of the poorest neighborhoods in Barcelona, ​​La Trinitat Vella. There I conducted therapeutic groups and reinforcement groups with many teenagers and to this day I am still connected to the entity, conducting individual therapeutic sessions with boys I have been with for almost 2 years. In addition, just over 8 months ago I started working at IPITIA, an international center specialized in OCD where I conduct online and face-to-face sessions.

It should be noted that I’m native in Catalan, Spanish and English and I can attend to a patient in any of these 3 languages, in fact, I have been doing so during all my practice.
