Lourdes Alcalá

Lourdes Alcalá is a mental health nurse who has worked in a Mental Health Unit since 1985. Over the years, her interest in studying the human being in a holistic dimension has led her to pursue training in disciplines including Psychodrama, Mindfulness, bibliotherapy, and mind-body therapies, incorporating them into her professional practice.

Expertise in mind-body therapies

Lourdes is a specialized practitioner in mind-body therapies, trained in various disciplines in both individual and group contexts. She leads an Integrative Health Therapy Center in Mallorca, where she runs retreats with programs aimed at mental serenity, emotional health, and consciousness elevation.

Personalized therapies

Her programs are also oriented toward improving dietary habits and detoxifying the body. Through a personalized approach, specific therapies are designed and tailored to each person’s individual needs, following a rigorous evaluation and therapeutic design process. In 2021, Lourdes achieved accreditation from the Japanese Federation of Ito Thermie as an instructor for the introductory course in this therapeutic discipline.

Reflections on her professional journey

It hasn’t been an easy journey, but it has been enriching and full of learning experiences. Lourdes is genuinely interested in people, with all their strengths and weaknesses, and considers herself fortunate to have had mentors who taught her a great deal without intending to. Awards, presentations, posters, conferences, and workshops came and went, but the emotions shared by so many people over the years are what she holds closest to her heart. For Lourdes, the most important thing as a professional and as a person is to care from the heart for those around her; empathy and understanding are the core of life.
