Psychotherapy and executive wellbeing

Madrid l in Company l online

  • Psychotherapy and well-being is an integration of individual psychotherapy and coaching, when a more in-depth approach is required to problems that interfere with leadership, management, managerial and executive relationships in organisations.
  • Our coaching service is led by Susana Lugo Ruiz, a psychotherapist accredited by the Spanish Federation of Psychotherapist Associations FEAP, and executive coach with a long business career.
  • Certainly, this psychotherapy and wellness service is based on “talking and listening” to the client through psychotherapy, but it is not a mental health or psychology therapy to treat illnesses, but is situated in the facilitation of the development and wellbeing of professionals.

Some clients benefit most from a coaching approach, i.e. having a confidential space where they can share with an executive coach experiencing problems and vent about their difficulties, exchange ideas, analyse solutions, and gain insights.

However, other managers need something more to really optimise the benefits of coaching.

Thus, they need the expertise of an accredited psychotherapist, highly specialised in business settings, to help them deal with deeper underlying issues that interfere with their management, performance and leadership performance.

Often, work-related difficulties are mixed with their own person.

Commonly, many leaders, like most people, are susceptible to getting caught up in conflicts and problems where it is difficult to separate the personal and the professional.

In other words, leaders do not always function in the best way.

And when that is the case, leaders may experience difficulties that are best addressed with a psychotherapeutic approach

Below are some common examples of difficulties:

  • Feelings of stress that can affect your performance and leadership in many ways, and impact on people within the organisation
  • Down feelings that can sap their energy for work or for maintaining a positive attitude, and can also affect team motivation.
  • Hot reactions where you are suddenly driven to act in ways that skew your better judgement, which you can’t seem to control
  • Inhibited responses where you are slowed down or blocked by personal resistances that you cannot unblock or overcome.
  • Unspoken reactions in which you communicate something to others, but you cannot find the right words or the right time to say it.
  • Unwanted reactions where the manager perceives that he/she is somehow provoking undesirable responses from others, but does not know why or what to do differently.
  • Conflictual relationships with bosses, colleagues or the team. Sometimes they often have unconscious dynamics and repetitive patterns embedded in the person of the professional.
  • Aspects of life and biography that interfere with the profession such as emotional relationships, sexuality, family, identity, emotional conflicts, etc.

The process of psychotherapy and wellbeing

In relation to this, it may require a few individual sessions or several months, generally at a weekly or fortnightly frequency, depending on the cases and the client’s person.

The psychotherapy and wellness sessions are confidential, attended by the client and the psychotherapist, lasting between 50 and 60 minutes.

1. Customer request

The individual client or his company contacts the psychotherapist.

2. Initial consultation

A preliminary consultation is arranged to listen to the case, the client’s motivations, and assess the fit with the psychotherapy service.

3. Acceptance and recruitment

Psychotherapist and client formalise their agreement and the associated conditions.

4. Work plan

The psychotherapist proposes a framework that will guide the executive psychotherapy (sessions, frequency, changes and cancellations, etc.).

5. Development of sessions

Individual sessions with the client take place, usually on a weekly or fortnightly basis, lasting between 50 and 60 minutes.

6. Closing the process

Once the therapeutic and wellbeing objectives have been achieved, the process ends.

  • Respect and sensitivity towards any aspect of human diversity is also considered.
  • There is a clear orientation of the psychotherapist towards the benefit and development of the client.
  • Finally, it should be noted that psychotherapists relate to their clients under ethical parameters and strict professionalism.
