Ms Angelica Lopes

Clinical Counselors

“I have worked over the past 15 years in private practice and in clinical research both in Australia and South America. I have provided several specialised therapeutic services to those dealing with challenging life experiences and assisted people through short-term goal oriented therapy, as well as long-term therapy.”

About Me

With over 15 years in private practice and clinical research, I support individuals navigating challenging life experiences. My experience across Australia and South America offers a broad perspective. I assist people through short-term, goal-oriented therapy for immediate needs. For deeper exploration, I also provide long-term support. This extensive background allows me to tailor our work to your unique pace and goals.

Approach

Having worked across Australia and South America, I structure sessions to alternate practical, goal-focused steps with deeper reflective exploration so the pace matches what you need. From my Perth clinic or via secure online sessions in English or Portuguese, appointments feel collaborative and concrete: we set clear goals, try targeted strategies between meetings, then review what helps. I draw on structured techniques alongside open exploration to address anxiety, self-worth and cross-cultural strains. This way of working tends to suit adults seeking both immediate relief and thoughtful, lasting change.
