Dr. Abner Grijalva Ferguson

About the Doctor

I am a Licensed Psychologist from the Universidad de Guadalajara and, for more than 10 years, my purpose has been to accompany people in building a life that is truly worth living. I understand that seeking therapy is a brave, and at times overwhelming, step. That is why I have made an effort to train with the best experts from Mexico, the United States, Canada, and Europe. My goal has always been the same: to bring science into the consultation room. I don't want you to feel like we are "just trying things to see what works"; on the contrary, I use treatments with solid scientific backing such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). What do I specialize in? I like working with people facing depression, anxiety, and intense emotions or complex diagnoses, such as Borderline Personality Disorder. I am internationally certified by Behavioral Tech and DBT Latinoamerica as a DBT Skills Trainer. This means my approach focuses on giving you practical tools to manage stress, regulate your emotions, and improve your relationships. My commitment to you: For me, therapy is a space of respect and honesty. My work has been recognized with a special award from the Universidad de Guadalajara, but my greatest satisfaction is seeing my patients' real progress. In addition, to ensure that you receive the highest quality of care, my practice is constantly supervised by professionals with doctoral degrees. Since 2018 I have been an active member of the Association for Contextual Behavioral Science (ACBS), which allows me to stay at the forefront of the most effective and humane treatments that exist today. Here you will not only find an expert in techniques, but a person committed to your well-being, willing to work as a team with you so that you can regain the balance you are looking for.
