Olga-Lucia Gamboa Arana

Dr. Olga-Lucia Gamboa Arana is a Cognitive Neuroscientist, ACT coach, and mindfulness teacher. She has also a specialization in stress management and another one in emotional education. 

She combines her skills to create personalized programs to support people’s well-being. Her coaching is primarily based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), a very practical form of therapy/training that has proven to support the development of psychological flexibility and promote positive behavioral changes, both needed to achieve mental and emotional well-being. Her teachings involve mindfulness and self-compassion practices applied in daily life since these are powerful techniques known to improve subjective well-being, increase psychological health and flexibility and reduce emotional reactivity.

My programs and coaching sessions are tailored to each particular case using tools from positive psychology, acceptance and commitment therapy, emotional intelligence, mindfulness and self-compassion, and healthy lifestyle interventions. 

You will learn practical and easy-to-implement strategies that will allow you to manage your stress, deal with difficult emotions, increase your self-esteem and self-confidence and most importantly, modify those unhelpful behaviors that take you away from living a meaningful and joyful life.

Sessions can be over the phone, online, or in person with a 1-hour duration. 

There are packages of 6 sessions available.

I offer seminars and workshops on “Neuroscience and mental health”,  “Emotional Education”, “Emotional Intelligence”, “Healthy Life-Style Practices” and “Applied Mindfulness and Self-Compassion” to groups, schools, and companies interested in increasing the psychological and general well-being of their members.

They consist of a short but fun “psychoeducation” section and easy-to-learn techniques to develop the necessary skills needed to address the particular topic at hand (i.e. reduce stress levels, regulate difficult emotions and do what matters (values-based actions).

All of them contain useful strategies to promote mental, emotional, and general well-being.
