About me

I am a clinical psychologist with 13 years of experience, graduated from the Faculty of Psychology at the University of Lisbon and I have since practiced primarily in a private clinical setting. Currently, I work with adults both online and in-person (in Matosinhos). My intervention is based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (focusing on Third-Generation Therapies: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Compassion-Focused Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy). I also have complementary training in Cognitive Processing Therapy, Mindfulness, Palliative Care, Grief, Autism, Trauma and ADHD. I offer individual and couples therapy, both online and in person.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
ACT: Acceptance and Commitment TherapyRecommended for those who want to stop fighting negative thoughts and learn how to live with more acceptance and focus on what really matters in life.
CBT: Cognitive behavioral therapyRecommended for those looking for practical support and accountability to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
DBT: Dialectical Behavior Therapy Recommended for those who want to learn skills to manage intense emotions and improve their relationships, especially if they feel easily overwhelmed.
My therapeutic approach is supportive, based on practices validated by scientific evidence. In my practice, I strive to offer a safe, respectful, and non-judgmental space where the patients can express themselves freely and progress at their own pace.
