Beatriz Barbas Pereira

My training is integrative and eclectic at its core, which means my clinical approach adapts to each person’s unique needs and goals. I’m passionate about continuously learning and updating my knowledge so that I can offer support that is both individualized and scientifically grounded. I strive to make therapy a refuge — a safe and welcoming space, free from judgment — where together we can explore memories, fears, dreams, and new ways of feeling better.

I hold a Master’s Degree in Clinical and Health Psychology from the Faculty of Psychology, University of Lisbon, with a specialization in Integrative Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT). My master’s research explored trauma trajectories and the ways in which people recover and rebuild after traumatic experiences. In addition to my foundational training in CBT, I completed an Advanced Specialization in Third-Generation Therapies (CRIAP) and am currently finalizing a Postgraduate Advanced Dual Specialization in Couples Therapy and Clinical Sexology (INSPSIC). I have also undertaken further training in areas such as Grief Intervention Across the Lifespan (CRIAP), Personality Disorders (CRIAP), Adult ADHD (OPP), LGBTQ+ Affirmative Psychological Practice (OPP), and Psychological Trauma (CRIAP). My ongoing professional development is centered on Relationships, Sexuality, Adult ADHD, Anxiety, Trauma, and Attachment. I take an integrative and compassionate approach, drawing from modalities such as Parts Work, Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), weaving them into my practice as I continue to deepen my understanding and skills.
