PROMOTING HEALING THROUGH COMPASSION
As a person-centred, integrative, and relational therapist, I am dedicated to meeting your unique needs. My approach combines techniques from humanistic, psychodynamic, and behavioural therapies, enabling me to tailor treatments for optimal effectiveness. This personalized methodology ensures that each session is crafted to support your journey towards well-being.
The world of psychology, therapy, and counseling has always been a significant part of my life. From a young age, I found myself naturally drawn to giving advice and offering support, recognized for my balanced perspective. It quickly became apparent that I had a natural talent for this work, and I found immense joy in helping people uncover solutions to their problems or simply lighten their burdens through attentive listening.
My journey began in Brazil, where I was born, working with individuals in need through a charity I founded. In Portugal, I engaged in charitable efforts to raise awareness about healthy nutrition, and in the UK, I spent over 15 years in healthcare, supporting individuals with mental health challenges across both public and private sectors.

I have known Dougg for many years and have always benefited greatly from his advice and active listening. He is someone with whom I was able to vent without judgement, receiving support and, most importantly, feeling support, affection and respect. Dougg is a unique person who truly left a deep mark on my life. When I faced difficulties with my self-esteem and discovering my own personality, he was a fundamental support. As a therapist, your personal and professional development is notable, which certainly improves your qualities when using your knowledge combined with affection in an assertive way. Dougg not only listens, but understands and guides with incredible wisdom, always present and ready to help. I have always admired him as a person and, increasingly, as a professional; this admiration only grew over time. I sincerely recommend your services as a therapist. Based on my experience, Dougg is an example of dedication and empathy, making a difference in the lives of everyone lucky enough to know him.
After 32 years of marriage I had to face a divorce. The sadness, pain and everything that causes a separation were almost unbearable. Sometimes I thought about giving up living because of suffering. So I accepted therapeutic help from Mr Douglas. It was more than a year of treatment and little by little I saw myself strengthened through this treatment. Today I am able to carry on with my life with my head held high and facing the challenges of a new journey. I am immensely grateful for Mr Douglas' intervention and for helping me face such a critical moment in my life. Gratitude is what I have to say.
