Javier Vázquez Correa, PhDc, MS, MA

I am a PhD Candidate in Cognitive Neuroscience (Universitat Oberta de Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain), and a certified Clinical Health Psychologist in Spain (22614, COPC) and France (Nº ADELI 339327389) for 10+ years, specializing in the treatment of addiction and treatment-resistant depression. I received my BA in Psychology from Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC, Barcelona, Spain), while getting training and supervision in Gestalt Therapy (Institut Gestalt, Barcelona, Spain). I received my MA in Clinical Psychology from University of Toulouse-Jean Jaurès (France), and my MS in Neurosciences from University of Bordeaux (France). Furthermore, I completed my MS internship at the De Lecea Lab at Stanford University School of Medicine (California, USA), while specializing in Neuropsychological Assessment (University of California, Berkeley) and Cognitive Behavior Therapy (Beck Institute, PA, USA). I maintain a private practice in Barcelona, where I provide treatment to adults. My approach is integrative: I combine transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) with Third Wave Cognitive Behavior Therapy, both empirically supported techniques, to optimize results. In addition to my private practice, I am a researcher at the Cognitive NeuroLab (Universitat Oberta de Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain), and an assistant professor at Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC, Barcelona, Spain) and Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (UNED, Barcelona, Spain).
