My Credentials:

I am a Psychologist in Psychotherapy working integratively, drawing from psychodynamic and somatic approaches. I have worked in the field of counselling and psychotherapy in Lisbon and online since obtaining my psychology degrees. I have worked for a number of organisations including Immigration organizations, Children and Young People Services, Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Services, and private clinics. My areas of specialty include anxiety, depression, relationship issues, personality disorders, couples work, abuse, trauma, anger and post-traumatic stress. I have a degree in psychology, a Masters in clinical psychology at the Applied Psychology University. I am chartered with the Portuguese  Psychological Society.

My Approach:

My goal is to provide a confidential and empathic setting for you to explore your issues in a safe place, find your true Self, heal your inner child and find your own answers on your journey.  I am passionate about my job as a therapist: the work is often challenging, but having experienced the process of therapy myself, I fully appreciate the amazing results it can have in our lives, Self and relationships. For me it is an honour to be part of my clients’ progress and change, knowing where they want to be, and helping them craft the path to get there.

I believe that therapy is a two-person journey, where we work together to change patterns, develop self-awareness, and build resilience and change. My approach is emphatic and attentive, encouraging you to take meaningful steps toward change while feeling supported throughout the process. I tailor my methods to suit each individual, recognizing that no two people experience challenges in the same way. Whether you are facing a specific difficulty or seeking deeper personal growth on your journey, our sessions will be a space for exploration, understanding, and progress. My ultimate goal is to empower you to regain control, develop healthier coping strategies, and lead a fuller life.

About me:

Outside of work, I spend most of my time in nature. I also dedicate myself to my own personal development. I sing, which is also a passion and a very somatic and powerful technique.

Summary:

I am an English-speaking Psychologist based in Lisbon, Portugal, offering both online and in-person to adults, teenagers and couples. I work integratively with psychodynamic and attachment styles and somatic approaches, and I specialize in anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and trauma.

My goal is to provide a safe space for clients to explore their concerns and find solutions. Passionate about therapy, I believe in its transformative power. Outside work, I enjoy singing, staying active, watching films, and spending time in nature.
