Psychology (Health Center)

Psychotherapeutic practice is not an area that volunteers can attend, and that, for reasons of secrecy and to open intimate matters with strangers, is not appropriate or beneficial for patients (who have a variable time of treatment). 

Bear in mind that in the field of psychology, one of the tools of the treatments is the psychologist-patient relationship with a prior confidentiality of patients. 

Thus, it is very difficult to give the volunteer the opportunity to be part of a session. Instead, they will be asked to participate in a first interview (with a new patient-consultant). However, it depends on the number of claims of consultants and scheduling issues for the professionals to coordinate interviews with the volunteers.

*Prepare lectures open to the community, and the subsequent submission of the same; 
*Prepare workshops open to the community and the subsequent submission of the same; 
*Consultation and discussion of clinical cases 
*Participation in the first interview with patients (after consultation with it)

My experience taught me a lot about myself and my ability to overcome barriers such as language and still be successful in engaging the people in many activities, and helping share a sense of hope with them.
