Approach

Treatment Approaches
Integrative therapy Recommended for those who prefer a flexible approach that combines different therapies to meet their unique needs.
Psychodynamic therapyRecommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.
Psychotherapy Recommended for those who want to work through emotional or mental health challenges by talking with a trained psychotherapist.

I´m a senior psychotherapist from Lisbon. My approach is in brief psychotherapy according to the Integrated Model of the Brief Psychotherapies Portuguese Society . This means we work on a psychodynamic basis integrating the existential phenomenological perspective.

We give importance to the individual's past as well as their present experiences and their existence in their worldview.

In a very summarized way, in our methodology we use the focus, the work on Balint's basic gap, the therapeutic relationship and alliance and Ricoueur's double hermeneutic arc.
