OTHER FOCUS AREAS
Meet Carina, a Cognitive Behavioral Clinical and Health Psychologist dedicated to creating a space where clients feel genuinely understood, deeply supported, and empowered to grow. Her approach to therapy is shaped by postgraduate studies in Third Wave Therapies, rooted in mindfulness, acceptance, and self-compassion, giving her work a quality of warmth, curiosity, and authenticity that clients feel from the very first session.
Carina works in private practice, supporting individuals through a wide range of challenges, from anxiety and mood difficulties to relationship struggles, emotional regulation, and overall wellbeing. She strongly believes that no one should have to move through life feeling constantly stressed, sad, or worried, and that everyone deserves the chance to grow, heal, and become their best version. She approaches each client's story with genuine curiosity and respect for the full context of their lived experience.
Carina specialises in anxiety, mood difficulties, emotional regulation, and relationship challenges. She integrates evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral tools with mindfulness and self-compassion-based approaches, always tailoring her methods to what will work best for you rather than applying a rigid formula. Her gentle but practical style allows her to combine structure with real empathy for each person's unique circumstances.
Her approach is warm, safe, and firmly non-judgmental. Together, you and Carina will work on understanding yourself better, developing healthier coping skills, and building a life that feels more aligned with who you truly want to be. She conducts sessions in both English and Portuguese, so you can express yourself freely in the language that feels most natural to you.
Carina's goal is simple but meaningful: to offer a supportive space where you can process your experiences, build self-compassion and balance, and move forward at your own pace toward meaningful, lasting change. Wherever you are in your journey, she is ready to meet you there.

As always, Carina provides great advice and gets me to think deeper on how I really feel and why I feel like that. And provides advice on how I can overcome challenges in my life.

Customer service was helpful answering my questions and on assisting me with the whole process. This is my first session with Carina and I feel comfortable with her. I know we have a lot to work on but I think it will be for the best.

Carina was very understanding and allowed plenty of time for me to talk through my problems. Asking questions which helped me understand why maybe I would feel that way, or why a situation happened the way it did.
