Hi! My name is Camilo Sáenz-Moncaleano, PhD.
Welcome to the website that I have designed to show you the academic and professional experience that I have built in several countries over the past years. In this page, you will find contact info and social media links so you can get in touch with me! It would be a pleasure to have the opportunity to know you and share with you the path of knowledge and personal growth.
More about me…
I am a High Performance Psychologist with over twelve years of academic formation and over nine years of professional experience. My professional experience and fluency in several languages have allowed me to work with amateur, collegiate, professional and elite performers from more than 15 countries, in several fields like sports, performing arts, gaming, and business.
By using evidence-based techniques, my purpose is to work with people to help them achieve a higher level of physical and mental well-being, that will ultimately lead to higher level of performance in their field. I have achieved this through collaborative processes of self-awareness, compassion, and commitment to creating a better version of oneself.
