I’m Lina. I’m a psychologist and psychoanalytic psychotherapist. What that means is that my desire to understand the human mind has taken me into deep and sustained training in the mental field.

I can’t say I always knew this is what I wanted to do professionally. I realized I wanted to be a therapist while studying architecture. I was first drawn to questions of space, structure, and movement, and over time those questions turned inward. I have been a stranger to my own mind and desires, and I found my way through with curiosity, patience, and the help of others. With time, I learned to let myself be surprised by the workings of my unconscious, and to cultivate that same curiosity and patience for the processes of others.

I have also surprised myself by where life has taken me. I always knew I wanted to travel, but I could not have imagined how deeply living across cultures would shape me. I was born and raised in Colombia, lived in France for a while, later moved to study and lived in Spain for ten years, and have been living in Norway since 2024. A life abroad has brought hardships and losses, but also great learning, gifts, and moments of unexpected beauty.

Because I have experienced firsthand how much life can surprise us, I am deeply committed to accompanying others on their paths. I find great meaning in the exchange that happens when people come together in supporting one another.
