I am a Shiatsu practitioner specialising in women's health including menstrual health, fertility, pregnancy, birth preparation, post-natal, menopause and beyond.

I have finished my training with Suzanne in 2004 and have been working with women for over 20 years offering Shiatsu, Shiatsu for pregnancy, Baby massage, Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy and more recently, Psychotherapeutic Counselling. I am a psychotherapeutic counsellor and bodyworker specialising in working with people suffering with known or unknown trauma (very common) issues as developmental trauma (widely common), complex trauma, transgenerational trauma, trauma caused by physical and/or sexual abuse. Experiencing trauma can be highly detrimental to one's daily life and some of the symptoms are anxiety, self-loathing, depression, low self-esteem, ADHD and OCD to name a few dis-eases. My work has a holistic and transpersonal touch to therapy, which sees problems or issues as an opportunity for self knowledge and growth.

I offer:

*Shiatsu (Therapeutic Bodywork)
*Biodynamic Cranioacral Therapy
*Psychotherapeutic Counselling (Psychosynthesis)

Shiatsu for Pregnancy and Baby Massage is not featured on my website however a session can be organised if it is requested.
I speak fluently Portuguese and Spanish.
