READ THIS FIRST. If you are in immediate danger or thinking about harming yourself, please get help now. Visit a nearby emergency service, hospital, or mental health clinic immediately. If you are in crisis, consider these helplines and suicide hotlines worldwide.
The profiles listed above are practitioners who consult in Porto Alegre, or who name it as an area they work in. You can narrow the list by profession, by the difficulties someone works with, by language, by client group and by identity. That matters when the fit of the person counts for as much as the method.
Choosing well is a question of its own, and we have written about what to weigh.

What if nobody listed here suits me?
Listings change as therapists join and update their availability.
The Online Services filter is the widest step you can take from here. It opens the list to people who work by video, without changing what you are looking for.
Other cities in Brasil are listed further down this page.
How do I check a therapist I find here?
Everyone listed must be qualified for the work they offer. Whether that qualification is also a licence depends on the profession, and which titles are protected differs from country to country.
Asking about registration is a reasonable question rather than a suspicious one. A tick beside a registration, qualification or membership means we have seen evidence for that entry, not that we endorse the practitioner.
The Verified mark at the top of a profile is different: the practitioner pays, submits documents and passes a closer check. Paying alone does not earn it. Where a profession is registered, that register is the check worth making before you book.
