Confidence is fundamental to my work as an actress. Actors often face challenging moments: audition rejections, creative blocks, difficulty finding opportunities… In these situations, self-doubt creeps in: “I’m not cut out for this,” “I’ll never find work.” Working with Carles helps me return to my roots, reconnect with my motivations and strengths as an actress, and strengthen my confidence in both my craft and my abilities.

I was at a stage in my life where I felt a bit lost, stressed, anxious, fearful, and insecure… a result of the society we live in, which is fast-paced and doesn’t teach us to feel, to listen to our emotions, to give ourselves time, or to take care of ourselves… I was lucky to meet Carles and work with him after trying different alternatives… I must say I am infinitely grateful because he has taught me to know myself better, to listen to and attend to my needs, to grow personally, to be present, to disidentify from my constant stream of thoughts—in short, to enjoy life again.

Therapy is a long and slow journey, but it’s worth undertaking it with a great guide and friend like Carles.

Thank you, Carles.

Therapy helped me become aware of patterns in my behavior—attitudes that harmed me repeatedly in certain situations and relationships. Before, I would blame my environment or others, not realizing that change always starts with oneself. I learned that if I change, everything around me changes as well.

This mindset made me emotionally independent and spared me much suffering. I now surround myself with better people because I am better and because I recognize who genuinely supports me. I quickly spot situations that threaten my integrity and distance myself from anything that doesn’t serve me. I’ve learned to ask myself: “Is this what I want for myself? Why am I doing this?”—and to make decisions that align more closely with my true desires.

In a course with Carles, I was able to give physical form to my fears and the parts of myself afraid to act—and, most importantly, understand why they exist and why I created them. The results on camera were remarkable; for the first time, I truly enjoyed my performance, without self-judgment, and with full belief in my acting.

The course was transformative both personally and professionally, offering deep insights through humanistic psychotherapy on how to understand any character’s behavior. Carles is an incredible teacher with extensive knowledge of acting. I continue to use what I learned every day. This was a genuinely healing experience—not just as an artist, but as a person.

My experience with Carles as a teacher was fantastic. The workshop I attended to increase my confidence regarding my work as an actor was great and largely therapeutic. It was a journey of self-discovery that made me aware of certain fears, helped me identify them, and taught me how to deal with them better. Identifying my blocks, creating a comfort zone in my mind to return to when needed—indispensable for creating and exploring your possibilities.

Learning tools specifically focused on increasing my confidence in the world, society, and my work.

Carles is an incredible instructor. He is a teacher with great qualities. He connects his knowledge of psychology very well with the world of cinema and, specifically, with the world of the actor. Intelligent, coherent, approachable, kind, and a wonderful person. He is a great communicator, and in a short time, you create a very human and sincere connection. All this gives you the necessary security to develop and explore your qualities with confidence.

Carles Vila knows very well the importance of nurturing that fundamental confidence and of healing everything that once hurt it. For actors and non-actors alike, for anyone who wants to journey back home, Carles is undoubtedly the ideal companion.

I began therapy with Carles during a period of grief, at a time when I needed to accept a difficult reality. He guided me through this transition with empathy and support. I am deeply grateful to life for bringing Carles into that moment.

I had the privilege of knowing Carles as both a workshop teacher and a psychotherapist. In both roles, he helped me rebuild my self-confidence. The actors’ workshop opened new creative avenues, improving my relationship with myself and my surroundings.

Carles is a professional of exceptional human quality, guiding participants with care, respect, and sensitivity through challenging times. He helped me find the confidence and joy I needed—a truly transformative experience.
