Dr Mariagrazia Marini Luwisch

Licensed Clinical Psychologists

An experienced, competent and compassionate psychotherapist, working with adult, children, couples, elderly. I offer in-person therapy in Lisbon and online in Italian and Portuguese.

About Me

As an experienced, compassionate psychotherapist, I offer a steady hand to adults, children, couples, and the elderly. I aim to create a safe, understanding space where you can explore life's challenges. Sessions, available in-person in Lisbon or online, are thoughtfully tailored and offered in Italian or Portuguese. My versatile approach helps clients of all ages find clarity and build resilience, whatever their concerns.

Approach

You’ll notice a steady, attentive rhythm in sessions that balances careful listening with focused, practical steps. Meeting in person in Lisbon or online in Italian or Portuguese, I structure time so children, adults and couples feel contained yet free to explore. We gently trace patterns, use reflective work alongside targeted techniques and small between-session practices to test new ways of relating and coping with anxiety, addiction or life transitions. This approach suits those seeking clear, respectful guidance and sustainable change.
