At the Women's Unit, we believe that taking care of your mental health is as essential as taking care of your body. For this reason, our Clinical Psychology Unit is here to support you, with a personalized and personal approach, when you need it most.
Psychologist Elena Iracheta Ruiz offers specialized support to help you overcome emotional challenges and find balance at every stage of your life.


Women face unique challenges throughout their lives: hormonal, emotional, and life changes that impact both their physical and mental well-being. A psychologist specializing in women's issues understands the unique characteristics of each stage, from puberty to pregnancy, motherhood, and menopause.
At the Women's Unit, we offer a comprehensive and personalized approach aimed at addressing the emotional and psychological challenges that may arise during these transitions. Having a specialist in women's psychology means receiving care that connects with your unique experiences, helping you find balance, strength, and well-being in every moment of your life.
