I am a psychologist graduated from the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro, with a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology from Ispa. I hold a Graduate Diploma in Emotional Health for Babies, Children, Young Adults and Families from the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust.

      Before dedicating myself to clinical psychology, I worked in human resources at multinational companies. Throughout my life, I have had the opportunity to live in four countries: the United States, Belgium, the United Kingdom, and, finally, Portugal. This experience broadened my perspective on the diverse ways of living, relating, and building one's own story.

   Migration, with its practical, subjective, and relational challenges, deepened my sensitivity to the processes of change, loss, and rebuilding that many people go through in life. This journey has contributed to a clinical practice marked by attention to each person's uniqueness and by empathy in the face of the complexity of human experience.

       I work with adolescents, adults and couples who are experiencing periods of challenge, change, or psychological distress. These difficulties are often related to existential questions, life transitions, family dynamics, relationship difficulties, or multicultural experiences.  

     I also work with individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder, (BPD), drawing on strategies from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) to support emotion regulation, increase distress tolerance, and strengthen interpersonal effectiveness.

     My practice is grounded in the systemic approach. I aim to provide a collaborative space for reflection and change, guided by clinical responsibility and respect for each person's pace, strengths, and unique life experience.
