About me

[At the moment, I am only offering online sessions] [EN] My name is Pedro and I am a portuguese Psychological Counselor. I hold a master's degree in Clinical Psychology (University of Porto) and I mostly work with adults. As a Queer identifying individual, one of my key concerns is to help and work with people within the LGBTQIA+ community. [PT] O meu nome é Pedro, sou português e Counsellor Psicológico. Tenho um mestrado em Psicologia Clínica (Universidade do Porto) e trabalho maioritariamente com pessoas adultas. Enquanto Queer, uma das minhas preocupações é ajudar e trabalhar com a comunidade LGBTQIA+.

My approach

[EN] In my practice, I take an eclectic approach from the various fields of psychology. In sessions we work together in a collaborative process, working through emotional difficulties in order to help you gain the ability to deal with or manage complex emotions. Counselling can help you deal with a variety of challenges, providing you with a renewed sense of hope. If you would like to book a free, online preliminary meeting (30 minutes), we can talk further about your interest in seeking psychological counselling and any other questions you may have, before deciding if regular sessions are the right thing for you. I offer sessions on a sliding scale according to your income, as I believe access to high quality mental health services should be available to everyone. For further information please contact me. [PT] Na minha prática, sigo uma abordagem eclética a partir dos vários campos da psicologia. Nas sessões, trabalharemos de forma colaborativa, explorando dificuldades emocionais com o intuito de ajudar ao desenvolvimento de competências para gerir emoções complexas. O Counselling Psicológico pode ajudar a lidar com uma variedade de desafios, ao mesmo tempo que potencia sentimentos de esperança. Antes de iniciar qualquer processo terapêutico, disponibilizo uma reunião gratuita Online (30 minutos) com potenciais clientes. Na reunião, temos a possibilidade de nos conhecermos e explorar as razões pelas quais procura apoio psicológico, antes de decidir se sessões regulares são a melhor opção para si. O preço das sessões pode variar de acordo com os seus rendimentos, pois acredito que o acesso a serviços de saúde mental de qualidade deve estar disponível para todas as pessoas.
