I am from Lisbon, Portugal, where I have always lived, until I was 30 years old. During this period, for personal reasons, the opportunity arose to emigrate to the Netherlands, where I currently reside. As an expat, I see myself in those who, being workers or students, have to create strategies to adapt to new realities and deal with the adversities that come up.
My basis is Cognitive-Behavioral Psychotherapy and I work mostly with young adults and adults. However, my graduation was very integrative, which allowed me to open the horizons to another approaches, such as ACT, and emotion-focused therapy. I have an extensive experience in the area of addictions and extreme situations. I have also training in psychological intervention in disaster situations.
