The psychological support and psychotherapy for LGP best suited for you

Specialty: Psychology in Portuguese Sign Language

We have psychologists fluent in Portuguese sign language who understand the culture of the Deaf community.

Anyone who feels continuously sad, anxious or worried, anyone who has sleep problems, difficulties concentrating or no longer feels pleasure in activities they used to enjoy benefits from seeking the help of a psychologist.

Research shows that the best treatment for those suffering from anxiety or depression is "talking therapy", a communication relationship that is established directly between patient and therapist.

In the case of a Deaf Person, this can be problematic because the involvement of an interpreter to mediate communication makes it difficult for the intimacy and emotional openness between patient and psychologist, which are fundamental for this relationship. That is why it may be decisive that the service be provided by a professional properly prepared for this purpose.

Psychotherapist and clinical psychologist

Clinical and Health Psychology Specialization

With over 20 years of clinical psychology experience in various areas and contexts, I have recently developed clinical practice in a private practice. More recently, in 2017, I began what I consider to be a new phase of my professional life: intervening with deaf people, a very enriching opportunity, since deafness is an unknown world, due to the communication barriers it imposes.

"I am human, and I think nothing human is alien to me." (Terencio). I've always been fascinated by human behavior, and I realized that this was the path I wanted to take: psychology, listening to and understanding the Other in his suffering. Psychotherapy allows us to gain greater knowledge of ourselves and has as its main objective the reduction of suffering, through the understanding of the internal factors that may be at its origin. In my consultations, I am concerned with ensuring an environment that helps in this journey, in search of new opportunities to restore hope to people's lives.

I am a family-oriented person with a wide range of interests. I enjoy listening to music, but I also appreciate silence. I value the opportunity to share visions and knowledge that comes with investing in lifelong learning and teamwork.
