My Story

A journey
through the mind.

"I firmly believe that understanding how your brain works is the first step to changing your life."
See My Journey

My fascination with the brain began long before I set foot in a laboratory. Growing up, I watched people around me struggle with anxiety, burnout, and cognitive fatigue — conditions that medicine treated as symptoms rather than signals. I wanted to understand the source.

I pursued my undergraduate studies in Biology at the University of Barcelona, where I first encountered clinical neuroscience.

My PhD research at University College London focused on neuroplasticity-based interventions for chronic stress disorders.

After completing my doctorate, I spent three years as a research associate at the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research.

Today I run a private practice offering what I could never find as a patient: a truly personalized, science-first approach to cognitive wellbeing.

The Team

The people
behind the practice

A small, hands-on team of neuroscience-trained clinicians who guide every step of your journey.

Founder · Lead Clinician
Dr. Elena Marín

Neuropsychologist with 15+ years applying neurofeedback in clinical and high-performance settings. Designs every personalized protocol.

Senior Neurofeedback Clinician
Carlos Vega

BCIA-certified specialist in qEEG analysis. Leads training sessions and protocol fine-tuning across the full programme.

Clinical Psychologist
Lucía Torres

Integrates neurofeedback with evidence-based therapy. Specialist in anxiety, sleep regulation, and child & adolescent care.

My Philosophy

Three principles
that guide everything

01
Evidence over intuition

Every technique, protocol, and recommendation I make is rooted in peer-reviewed research.

02
The brain is not the enemy

Anxiety, poor focus, emotional dysregulation — these are not character flaws. They are adaptive responses that need redirecting.

03
Change is measurable

Real progress leaves a neurological trace. I use quantitative assessments before, during, and after every programme.

My Approach

Personalised,
measurable, lasting.

I don't work with templates. Every client begins with a comprehensive neurological profile — cognitive, emotional, physiological — that becomes the foundation for a programme built around them.

Progress is tracked with the same rigour I apply in research. You'll see the data. You'll understand the change. And the results will outlive our work together — because that's how neuroplasticity works.
