Patricia Oliveira
PsychotherapistAbout Me
I offer psychotherapy for individuals in English and Portuguese.
I am a Brazilian psychotherapist who moved to England in 2018. My practice is centred on individuals seeking to delve deeper into their challenges.
Over the years, I have gained professional experience, assisting clients in various areas of life, particularly with complex family dynamics, parenting challenges, and the intricacies of immigration. I've also been working with individuals facing anxiety, depression, and the long-term effects of childhood trauma. My work highlights the process of individuation, helping clients uncover and align with their true selves through exploration in dialogue.
My approach involves creating a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to freely express their thoughts and emotions, aiming towards the process of individuation. This process is about gaining greater awareness of the factors that influence how a person relates to the entirety of their psychological, interpersonal, and cultural experiences. I have an international client base.
It's a process that requires patience, commitment and trust. Session by session, we delve deeper into understanding who you are and explore paths to authenticity and profound discoveries.
As a native Portuguese speaker, I am delighted to work with people who communicate in Portuguese.
