Puerta Abierta

The VFS is working at the Caritas location, at the Centro Trinitario , at an institution called Puerta Abierta assisting each client every 15 days. Two therapists work together with each patient.

The most common reasons for seeking assistance are the following:

panic attack,
insecurity arising from workplace or family mistreatment,
child abuse,
early parental abandonment,
family violence,
low self-esteem,
serious psychological repression within familial context,
victimization on the part of foster parents,
the loss of significant others,
HIV and many other physical problems.

Importantly, all the assisted clients helped by this method reported positive changes in both their psycho-emotional and spiritual health with both progress and successes. Therefore, there is a "multiplier effect" in the daily life of each of them, and, as it is known, when there are personal improvements their environment benefits as well.
