The legal landscape concerning mental health in Costa Rica is constantly evolving. While laws exist to protect the rights and well-being of individuals with mental health conditions, challenges remain in ensuring proper access to care, combating stigma, and safeguarding the rights of those facing mental health crises. Employers, for example, have a growing responsibility to provide supportive environments for their employees’ mental well-being. Navigating these complexities requires a nuanced understanding of both the legal framework and the practical realities faced by individuals and organizations alike.

With over four decades of experience in practice and teaching, Ramírez emphasizes the importance of listening as a therapeutic tool, but also as a valuable skill in daily life. He guides readers through the intricacies of the unconscious, weaving together his own personal journey with Freudian theory, all while maintaining a clear and approachable style.

Listening is accompanying without invading. It’s allowing the other person to discover their truth at their own pace.
