MENTAL HEALTH
If you find yourself in need of receiving mental health support during your time living abroad, remember that you can schedule appointments for an in-person or online therapy! So you can see your counselor in person, or have your sessions online.
ATTENTION: you won't need to pay upfront for online therapy with SINEWS! To make an appointment through their online platform, just contact the International Department at HM Hospital de Madrid before (by writing to international@hmhospitales.com, or by calling +34 629 823 493); they will provide you a code that you will need to insert when required to make the payment.
