In family and couple therapy, the focus is not only on each person but on the way the members of the family or the couple relate to one another: communication patterns, roles, expectations and the stories each one carries.
Sessions take place with the couple or with the family members who make sense at each stage of the process, in a safe, non-judgemental setting. The aim is for each person to feel heard, for communication to become clearer and for the family or couple to find, together, new ways of dealing with difficulties.
I am a Family and Couple Therapist, currently under supervision, trained by the Portuguese Society of Family Therapy. Sessions can take place at my practice or online.
