Mercedes, neuropsychologist at Los Arroyos Clinic, emphasizes the importance of addressing sleep as a fundamental axis within clinical intervention. From her experience, practically all patients present some alteration related to rest, whether difficulty falling asleep, frequent awakenings, poor sleep quality or feeling of non-recovery. At the clinic they work mainly from physiotherapy, pelvic floor, clinical psychology and neuropsychology, treating cases of anxiety, depression, phobias, OCD, ADHD, cognitive decline, neurodegenerative diseases, learning difficulties and language alterations.
Mercedes considers that training in sleep applied to psychology can provide great value, since improving rest directly impacts daily performance, emotional regulation, irritability and family and work relationships. In addition, the clinic plans to incorporate a specific sleep unit with NESA technology, motivated by the high demand and the results observed.
Among the most significant cases, she highlights a patient with trigeminal neuralgia who experienced notable improvement in sleep and a progressive reduction in pain. She also emphasizes the quality of the virtual classroom, its clear and downloadable contents, and concludes that her greatest dream is to continue helping her patients improve their quality of life.
