Biographie de Hellene Paredes

This work is dedicated to everyone who seeks to improve the quality of their affective relationships, whether in new partnerships, maintenance or reconstruction of existing relationships. I am Hellene Paredes, specialized in couples therapy, and I share valuable knowledge, not only academically, but, mainly, of practical achievements, extracted from day to day, and added along a trajectory full of challenges and learning.
I started my journey in 1976, getting married at the age of 28. After the first few years, I found myself with marital conflicts that led to separations (actually two separations). After earning a degree in psychology and earning a doctorate in relationship therapy, my third marriage brought wisdom and stability; This marital stability was achieved by learning from previous mistakes, in addition to what I had learned in college and, in a very decisive way, with what I learned from the daily work of the profession of marital therapist.
This way I achieved a deep understanding of relationship dynamics. I learned that self-awareness is crucial for healthy relationships, allowing you to understand your own emotions and reactions. With this base, we develop emotional self-control, face challenges constructively and cultivate virtues for a harmonious coexistence. I also learned the mechanics behind healthy relationships: Communication, empathy, respect and goodwill between marital peers.
Throughout my career, I have operated globally (North America, Europe, Asia and South America), realizing that human needs are universal. The pursuit of happiness and lasting relationships transcends cultural boundaries. I learned, in practice, that most breakups can be avoided, and I want to share this very important knowledge. Information is a powerful resource for preventing heartbreak. Learning that adequate preparation can avoid problems and disappointments.
My mission is to provide guidance, allowing people to build strong relationships, motivated by self-awareness, mutual knowledge, effective communication, respect between the parties and the firm decision to make it work.
