Rob Lefort (MSc) - psychologist | Psychotherapist

Professional background

I am an experienced psychotherapist who graduated with degrees in clinical psychopathology and cognitive psychology from universities in Montreal and London. I have also undergone training in psychodynamic therapy and Lacanian psychoanalysis.

I am certified in cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy (CBT), and I also use Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for helping PTSD patients.

My practice is grounded in an analytical approach that considers the personality and holistic experience of each individual beyond their symptoms. My experience has allowed me to integrate psychodynamic therapy techniques with cognitive behavioral techniques, as well as modern coaching and counseling methods.

I consult with English-speaking clients in Mérida, Mexico, and online.

In my free time I write about psychology, cognitive science and relationships in a popular online publication called "The Untangled Self", and I'm currently writing a non-fiction book on the topic of "How to Renegotiate the Invisible Contracts Sabotaging Your Relationship" due for publication in 2026.
