About Us
Hey there,
My name is Laura Alonso, I’m the founder of MenteMira. Like many, I have faced personal mental health challenges. Those moments of disconnect, from myself and those around me, were daunting. While therapy laid the foundation for my healing, the real shift happened when I complemented it with knowledge about the mind and emotions. Suddenly, my journey became clearer and felt more within my control.
Over the years, as a psychotherapist, I have seen countless individuals benefit profoundly from therapy. But I also noticed that those who paired their therapeutic journey with self-education experienced a deepened understanding and empowerment.
I began to think: Could we elevate the therapeutic experience by integrating it with psychoeducation? This blend of therapy with self-knowledge was the spark that ignited MenteMira.
So here we are, ready to share our holistic approach with you. By choosing MenteMira, you’re not only embracing therapy but also setting out on a journey towards greater self-awareness. As we grow more in tune with ourselves, we naturally foster deeper connections with others, enhancing both the quality of our lives and theirs.
We are honoured to be part of your path and are here to guide and support you every step of the way.
Thank you for letting us be a part of your story.
