About Me
As a psychoanalytic psychotherapist, I help you explore your inner world. We work together to understand your thoughts and feelings, supporting you to gently care for your inner dialogue. This process can transform your relationships and help you find a more meaningful life. If you are ready to make sense of your internal patterns, our sessions in English or Portuguese offer a supportive space for deep self-reflection.
Approach
We begin by noticing the stories you tell yourself, bringing curious attention to recurring thoughts and unspoken feelings so they lose their automatic pull. Sessions happen in English or Portuguese, online or from Portugal, offering a steady, confidential setting where we move at a thoughtful pace. Through attentive listening, reflective questions and gentle interpretation, we trace patterns in anxiety, relationship habits and life transitions; occasional reflections between meetings help make discoveries stick. People navigating stress, cross‑cultural shifts or relationship challenges often find this pace helpful.
