Mini bio
How it started.
While studying Clinical and Health Psychology at Tec de Monterrey, Paola created an Instagram space for talking about emotions. By February 2019, the university was covering her Self Love Challenge, which invited followers to do one small activity for themselves each day.
Psychology in everyday language.
Her work connects therapy with public education about anxiety, stress, self-esteem and relationships. She trained in cognitive behavioral and brief systemic therapy, works with adolescents and young adults, and offers talks and online courses. Her website presents psychoeducation as a way to reduce stigma.
Making room for care.
Paola’s work also extends to ELO. A 2024 interview described its community connecting patients with psychologists and supporting professional learning. In 2025 she became an interviewer on its podcast, Sin Etiquetas. By September 2026, ELO had attracted pre-seed backing for tools that reduce the administrative work of running a healthcare practice.
