English-Speaking Therapist in Lisbon – Humanistic Integrative Therapy
Are you looking for an English-speaking therapist in Lisbon? I offer in-person and online therapy sessions for individuals and couples, grounded in a humanistic integrative approach. This means I tailor the therapeutic process to your unique needs, drawing from a range of methods while holding a compassionate, client-centered focus at the core.
Therapeutic Approaches – Tailored to Your Needs
As a humanistic integrative therapist, I believe that there is no "one-size-fits-all" method when it comes to therapy. Every person is different, and so your therapeutic process should reflect your unique experiences, values, and goals. Here's a brief overview of the core approaches I may draw from in our work together:
Humanistic Therapy: This person-centered approach emphasizes empathy, authenticity, and unconditional positive regard. It focuses on helping you connect with your true self and build greater self-awareness and self-acceptance.
Integrative Therapy: I blend techniques from various models in a flexible, responsive way. Depending on your needs, we may work with emotions, thoughts, behaviors, body awareness, or relational patterns.
Existential Therapy: This approach explores questions around meaning, identity, freedom, and responsibility. It can be especially helpful during life transitions, crises, or periods of personal reflection.
Psychodynamic Therapy: We might explore early experiences and unconscious patterns that continue to influence your current relationships and emotional responses.
Cognitive-Behavioral Techniques (CBT): For some issues, especially anxiety or negative thinking, we may use structured tools to increase awareness of thought patterns and develop healthier ways of coping.
Mindfulness & Somatic Awareness: Incorporating body-based and present-moment practices can support emotional regulation, stress reduction, and deeper connection with the self.
Whether you're navigating a specific challenge or seeking personal growth, we’ll work collaboratively to find an approach that feels right for you. Therapy is a space to explore, reflect, and move forward at your own pace.
Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, cultural adjustment, or personal growth work, I provide a warm and supportive space where you can feel heard and understood.
I work with expats, internationals, and locals who prefer therapy in English or Polish. Sessions are available face-to-face in central Lisbon ( Graca) or online from anywhere in Portugal (or beyond).
