About me
Hi everyone!
I believe no one is broken, only disconnected. I also believe that self compassion is the key to overcome anything. I am here to help you to reconnect to yourself.
I work as a (holistic) psychologist, family constellations practitioner, Reiki therapist and Master teacher from the Mikao Usui lineage. I was also trained by Chris Germer, co-founder of the Center for MSC (Mindful Self Compassion), as a teacher for Mindful Self compassion and I am also a workshop facilitator in various themes including meditation for beginners. I also have a background as a street photographer, a passion that I still pursue.
However, this is what I do. Who I am is so much more than this. All of this let's say, intellectual background appeared during a major life changing breakdown that left me suffering with crippling anxiety, depression and a very unfriendly mind. Learning firstly Reiki nourished me in profound ways rebuilding a sense of inner authority, confidence and sovereignty that threw me into a new life path. I believe that these exact experiences that crack us open are purposely created to throw us where we belong.
I started my business in Berlin where I studied and lived for over 15 years, among other countries (USA, Nicaragua and Spain) and now I offer it online and in person (if you are in Lisbon) in Portuguese, German, English and Spanish.

Approach
My perspective is holistic and spiritual and I bridge the gap between my knowledge in psychology with the wisdom of energy work and spirituality. I also offer you a systemic point of view which is a therapeutic approach which aims to uncover and address unconscious patterns and dynamics within family systems. I believe that some of our blockages have its roots in our ancestors/family origins and they’ve been passed down to us through our lineage. I can help you if you’re feeling depressed, stressed, experiencing anxiety and disconnection. If you’re facing relationships hardships (I have studied polarities which it can be of a great asset if you want to understand yourself better and therefore rekindle your relationship), blockages and fears, if you’re in need to learn simple yet effective tools to cope with stress in your day to day life or you simply want to learn how to be a more compassionate person (to yourself and others). I always create a Judgment free, caring, and loving environment yet fun and lighthearted and you’ll have my undivided attention. I believe that feeling heard and seen is the hallmark of healing. You’ll be in good hands.
