About me

I am Cássia Dieguez, a clinical psychologist with a master's in Clinical Psychology from the University of Coimbra, Portugal, and a master's in Psychology. My practice combines psychological knowledge with evidence-based approaches, particularly CBT, to provide individualized support to clients of all ages.

I have extensive experience helping individuals navigate challenges related to anxiety, depression, autism, neurodivergence, and bipolar disorder. I conduct thorough assessments and create structured, data-informed interventions that empower clients to understand their minds, manage their emotions, and build practical skills for everyday life. My approach is empathetic, collaborative, and tailored to each person’s unique experiences and needs.

Beyond my professional work, I am passionate about continuous learning and personal growth. I enjoy exploring psychology, literature, and botany, and I deeply value authentic human connections. I strive to create spaces where clients feel heard, understood, and supported in reaching their full emotional and cognitive potential.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Art therapyRecommended for those who feel more comfortable expressing emotions through creativity and want to explore their feelings through art rather than talking.
CBT: Cognitive behavioral therapyRecommended for those looking for practical support and accountability to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
Clinical psychologyRecommended for those who need help with diagnosing and treating more complex mental health issues, often involving assessments and evidence-based treatments.

I use a collaborative and empathetic approach, primarily based on CBT, to help clients understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I work with individuals facing anxiety, depression, autism, neurodivergence, and bipolar disorder, creating personalized strategies and practical tools to improve emotional well-being and daily functioning. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to achieve personal growth.
