Ms Lucicleia Lopes

Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist

“Licensed clinical psychologist with experience in the mental health of adults and adolescents, especially medical professionals and Brazilians abroad. I offer online sessions to a limited number of patients, ensuring discretion, cultural sensitivity, and qualified listening.”

About Me

I practice as a Psicóloga and psychoanalytic psychotherapist in República, São Paulo, Brazil. I help adolescents and adults recover from abuse, treat mood disorders, work on body image, and support people facing cancer. I offer individual therapy and counseling in a private, confidential setting.

Approach

Grounded in work with young people, healthcare workers overseas and those facing illness, my sessions move between focused listening and reflective questions that help name what feels stuck. From São Paulo or in Portuguese via secure online meetings, I offer a paced, private space that acknowledges cultural nuances and professional pressures. We explore patterns, body image distress and past wounds through a psychodynamic, collaborative stance, sometimes using short tasks between sessions to notice change. This approach tends to suit people seeking steady, thoughtful support amid busy lives.
