As someone who’s been shut down emotionally for nearly a decade, I am in awe that I find myself crying cleansing tears during most Compassionate Inquiry sessions. This is largely due to Blanca providing such a beautifully safe and supportive space to be free to explore sensations held in my body as well as connected emotions. I’ve experienced incredible healing during my Compassionate Inquiry Sessions as I explore the neglected needs of my younger self and provide support for her in the here and now. Emotional growth and compassion toward myself has naturally followed our sessions. Gradually I am becoming more whole again and react differently to events that would have triggered me in the past. I am beyond grateful for Blanca and CI!!

Blanca is a compassionate, knowledgable and kind therapist who made me feel comfortable from the start. She has an innate ability to understand what I need in each session, whilst also gently encouraging me to explore new territory, past experiences and behavioural themes. She has guided me with patience on an exploration of self at a difficult time and I can’t thank her enough. I highly recommend her to others. She has brought her own openness and life experience to every session. J.E

Blanca is absolutely AMAZING!!  I have been in and out of counseling (talk therapy) for 20+ years and I will never go back again. Compassionate Inquiry is the way to go (at least in my opinion)! I started working with her in November of 2023 and it has been crazy to think about the differences it has made in my life. She is so kind, patient and seems to know the right time to ask the right questions, but at the same time gives you the space to stay with the feeling as long as you need. LW 

When your child is facing a chronic illness, every decision feels urgent and overwhelming. How do you allow your child to wait more than seven years for a kidney from the National Kidney Bank? For me, the answer was clear in both my mind and my heart: I was willing to become an organ donor to save my son’s life, and making that decision also meant confronting deep childhood trauma I had never fully faced.

I truly believe that meeting Blanca Urquijo was a divine intervention. She has a remarkable gift for guiding and supporting people through the most complex, dark, and deeply uncomfortable emotions rooted in traumatic childhood experiences, making them feel manageable and safe to explore. Blanca’s empathy, warmth, wisdom, compassion, and attentiveness supported me in ways I never thought possible and helped me move forward with strength, clarity, and healing through very challenging times.

Blanca es una excelente terapeuta y una gran profesional. El tiempo que trabajé con ella fue clave en mi proceso de sanación. Me ayudó a entender y a ver muchas cosas que hasta entonces no había sido capaz de ver por mí misma. Su acompañamiento fue muy respetuoso y claro, y siempre me sentí escuchada. Es súper intuitiva y se nota que le encanta lo que hace. La recomiendo totalmente si quieres profundizar en tu proceso de sanación y vivir una vida más consciente y plena. Nuria F.

I have been having sessions with Blanca for several months. She allows me to express myself without inhibitions, and I always feel better after our sessions together. She is a great listener, and I would recommend her to anyone who needs an independent, qualified therapist to speak to. Thank you, Blanca, for your time, your experience, and your care. Sarah P.
