About me

Desde a altura em que comecei a pensar “mais seriamente” no que queria ser quando crescesse, que tive uma certeza! Queria conseguir ajudar de alguma forma o outro e ter algum impacto positivo na sua vida. Desta certeza surgiram várias hipóteses, isto é, pensei ser professora, pensei ser médica, enfermeira... Mas foi no 12º ano que descobri a Psicologia. E foi a mais incrível descoberta que poderia ter feito! Desde esse momento que soube claramente o meu caminho e não me arrependo nada de ter escolhido ser Psicóloga! Ao longo do meu percurso tive a sorte de ser constantemente desafiada, acabando por ter contacto com diversas populações. Isto é, tanto com crianças e adolescentes (em diferentes contextos), como também com adultos. Acredito que todos nós temos um grande potencial e não podemos hesitar em explorá-lo, portanto tenho-me dedicado exaustivamente a ajudar, tanto jovens como adultos, a tomar partido de todas as suas potencialidades e ultrapassam aquilo que os preocupa e causa mal-estar. Para tal, realizo consulta online e presencial em Portugal, na zona de Lisboa. -------------------------------------------- Ever since I started thinking “more seriously” about what I wanted to be when I grew up, I was certain of one thing! I wanted to be able to help others in some way and have a positive impact on their lives. From this certainty, several options emerged, that is, I thought about being a teacher, a doctor, a nurse... But it was in the 12th grade that I discovered Psychology. And it was the most incredible discovery I could have made! From that moment on, I knew my path clearly and I don’t regret at all having chosen to be a Psychologist! Throughout my career, I have been lucky enough to be constantly challenged, and I ended up having contact with different populations. That is, with both children and adolescents (in different contexts), as well as with adults. To this end, I provide online and in-person consultations in Portugal, in the Lisbon area.
