La neutralidad en el manejo del dolor emocional: ¿es posible? | Nerea De Ugarte | TEDxSantiago Salon

In her TEDx talk, Nerea de Ugarte reflects on the idea of ​​“neutrality” in the practice of psychology and questions whether it is truly possible—or desirable—to maintain a completely impartial stance toward human suffering. Drawing on her experience as a therapist and activist, she invites us to rethink the role of psychology not only as a clinical discipline but also as a social and ethical tool. Her message proposes that a commitment to empathy, justice, and understanding the context are essential parts of truly humane psychological support. Nerea de Ugarte is a psychologist, activist, and speaker, recognized for her work on mental health, self-esteem, and gender equality. Founder of the platform La Rebelión del Cuerpo (The Body Rebellion), she has led a movement that promotes a critical perspective on beauty stereotypes and the social pressure on women. Her work combines psychology, communication, and activism to foster profound reflection on how we construct our identity and well-being in a society marked by demands and constant comparison. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
