Couple Therapy
Romantic relationships are spaces of intimacy, sharing and growth, but they can also go through times of distance, conflict and misunderstanding. Sometimes what begins as a difficulty in communicating turns into a cycle of repeated interactions, in which both partners feel hurt, misunderstood or emotionally distant.

Understanding the couple’s dynamics
Couple therapy offers a safe and confidential space to understand these dynamics, explore the emotions and needs that lie beneath them, and recognise the patterns that make connection between partners difficult.
The therapeutic process aims to foster more conscious communication, rebuild emotional safety and create new possibilities for connection, intimacy and mutual understanding.
I am a Couple Therapist, certified by the Portuguese Society of Family Therapy (Sociedade Portuguesa de Terapia Familiar). I am also training in Emotionally Focused Therapy, Sue Johnson’s model, with APEFT.
