Clinical Psychologist, Counsellor, Consultant and Humanitarian!
Born and raised in Lisbon, Portugal, I have always been drawn to people. I have always been fascinated by our stories, our behaviors, our journeys. The many small things that makes us all the same, and at the same time quite unique.
My passion lead my, naturally, to Psychology and Clinical Psychology, then to the ongoing work with individuals, families and communities around the world.
My systemic and inter-relational vision of Psychology and the world, has lead me to practice my profession in ONG’s in Portugal, private and public contexts, and in the last years took me to expand my horizons to the Humanitarian context, with my work in Sudan, with the UN.
