Mr Bruno Magalhães de Aquino
Psychoanalyst
“Psychodramatist, Psychologist and Specialist in Psychoanalysis predominantly working with Sexuality, Chronic Illness and Mourning. Languages: English and Portuguese.”
About Me
Navigating the complexities of sexuality, chronic illness, or mourning can feel overwhelming. As a Psychoanalyst and Psychodramatist, I offer a space to explore these profound experiences. We can work together to make sense of what feels overwhelming, discovering new perspectives. This allows you to find new ways forward. Sessions are offered in English or Portuguese, fostering genuine connection and insight.
Approach
Confronting intimate identity questions, long-term health struggles, or deep loss, I use enactment alongside reflective listening so tangled experiences become more tangible and speakable. Sessions in São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro or online, offered in both languages, move at a measured pace—sometimes through embodied role work, sometimes through quieter listening—to notice how body, story and desire interact. Between sessions I may suggest brief creative experiments or notes to track small shifts. Those looking for curious, collaborative work that honors both body and narrative often find this helpful.
