In the Consulting of Psychology and Health Montse Valls Giner, we also do therapies using mindfulness techniques. This technique is based on focusing the mind on the "here and now".

Many psychological disorders are caused by unsurpassed issues from the past or by irrational fears of what will happen in the future or simply by being, while doing something, thinking about something else, since this generates stress.

With mindfulness the patient is taught not to worry about things from the past, that they cannot change, nor about things from the future, that they do not really know if they are going to happen. This is achieved by teaching how to use thought to be fully aware of what is being done. For example, when you are eating you must be aware of the flavors, smells, textures, colors, etc. food and that will prevent you from thinking about conflicting things.

Focusing the thought on what is being done, little by little, will avoid deviating towards issues that worry or produce stress.

The use of this technique has been proven effective after scientific studies, to treat disorders of thought content and affectivity.

It may be useful to treat any of the following disorders:

1. Affective disorders such as:

panic disorder, anxiety neurosis, sadness, euphoria, etc.

2. Disorders of thought content such as:

obsessive neurosis,

phobic neurosis,

hysterical neurosis,

depression,

obsessive  disorder,

obsessive personality,

inhibition,

dysthymia,

OCD,

personality disorders,

hysteria of conversion,

hysteria of dissociation, etc.

2. Counseling therapies in psychiatric treatment
