Their services in the field of psychology are oriented to accompany the development in all stages of life of people, so they work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, families and seniors.

Areas of psychological intervention

For Centro TAP it is fundamental to work with families and children. A fundamental part of their work is the area of pedagogy, where the premise is that learning to learn is the key to success.The premise is that learning is not only reproducing or imitating, it is a process in which children build, creating from what they have learned. It is an innate capacity in the human being, and each and every one of us is provided with it; we only need to know how to use it properly to obtain the results we expect.

In the case of those children who present difficulties at school, have techniques, strategies and resources to improve the learning process that will facilitate their development as learners. that will facilitate their development in their role as students.

In addition, Centro TAP seeks not only to intervene when there is already a difficulty, but also to prevent psychological problems. also work from the prevention of psychological problems in later stages of in later stages of development through a unique program so that parents feel the peace of mind that they are doing the best for their baby.

The same is true for the sexology area, and its team of professionals specialized in individual and couple work, where they understand that there is no other way to work on sexuality than by accommodating all sexualities, regardless of age, sex or orientation of desire.

The PAPMI® initiative

The PAPMI® (Programa de Apoyo Psicológico P/Materno Infantil®) is a comprehensive care service for babies from 0 to 18 months of age. that enhances their emotional development so that they grow up knowing how to relate to each other with a secure attachment.

In addition, this program offers moms and dads support in parenting so that they can live this experience as unique, with keys for the correct management of babies in such a sensitive period as these first months of life.

There is an important connection between how we relate to our babies and the development of their emotional brain. The foundations of children's relational skills are developed in the first relationships with the mother and/or father. These experiences shape the architecture of the baby's brain.This is why TAP Center explains that PAPMI® plays such an important role in the first 1000 days of their growth.

Courses and training

In addition, this team of professionals believes in the development of people based on experience and learning. For this reason, Centro TAP organizes training courses that are developed in its own center and in collaboration with other public and private entities.

They develop exclusively for the center a continuous training plan throughout the year with workshops for the development of Emotional Intelligence in fathers, mothers and for children, and for the promotion of a healthy self-esteem.They also offer workshops for the development of healthy self-esteem, the development of communication skills and Mindfulness.

The team teaches in Psychology degrees and postgraduate courses in different Universities of the CAM.. They also provide training in companies, parenting schools and educational centers, training parents, students and teachers. For many years they have been a center for university internships training novice psychologists, and also supervise the clinical intervention of those professionals who, despite being experienced, rely on their knowledge and experience.

The task of dissemination

On the other hand, among its permanent objectives is the need to belong to the scientific community. For this reason, the TAP Center team actively participates in congresses and informative publications. In this way, its work philosophy becomes accessible to anyone who wants to count on its services.
