A very warm welcome to you. My name is Dr Andreia Santo and I’m chartered and registered Clinical and Counselling Psychologist and Family and Systemic Practitioner. I have been offering psychological services to children, young people and adults for over 10 years. I have worked in many different settings as a psychologist, including in the NHS (i.e. surgeries, health centres and hospitals), schools and in community and voluntary services.
I can support you psychologically if you are experiencing the following difficulties:
- Depression
- General anxiety
- Social anxiety
- Obsessive and compulsive disorder
- Phobias
- Panic attacks
- Post-traumatic stress disorder
- Eating disorders
- Chronic pain
- Stress/burnout
- Sleeping disorders
- Relationship difficulties with family members and spouses
- Bereavement
I’m an eclectic and holistic professional, trained and experienced in the use of a variety of psychological approaches, such as Person-centred, Cognitive and Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Mindfulness, and Family and Systemic Therapy.
I have seen throughout my professional practice and personal life that when an individual makes space for self-discovery, normally he/she is able to find all the necessary answers for their lives. It is important during the therapeutic work to also identify the possible conditions around you and that are no longer contributing to your happiness, so you can break free from them and experience yourself being 100% certain and confident in your decision-making. It would be a privilege to assist your self-discovery and personal empowerment.
Self-love is underrated in our civilisation. Knowing and loving you, will give you all the confidence and tools you require. You are innately perfect and competent. Self is enough. Dr Andreia Santo Cpsychol.
