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.
