“As a Clinical Psychologist who specializes in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, I have been working with expats for several years. My Psychological Intervention is aimed at helping you reduce your psychological suffering while also creating a life with more authenticity and meaning.”
About Me
I am a Registered Clinical Psychologist by the Portuguese Psychologists Order and holding a EuroPsy certificate. My primary specialization is psychoanalytic psychotherapy. However, I am also trained in other psychological approaches, including third-generation cognitive therapies, which enables me to adapt my clinical practice to diverse needs.

Approach
Our therapeutic process mainly involves developing a therapeutic relationship in which you feel safe, welcomed and understood. Through this relationship, you will gain understanding of your anguish and we will work together to investigate your psychological conflicts, symptoms, causes, and the impact they have on your life. This understanding will allow for the establishment of important objectives for you and the creation of the best strategies to achieve them.
