Dipl. Psych. Filipa De Freitas, Bern

Orario di ufficio

Servizi

I provide online psychological counselling for adults and couples in Portuguese and English.

I support clients experiencing anxiety, emotional regulation difficulties, trauma-related concerns, relationship difficulties, grief, migration and significant life transitions.

I also work with individuals and couples throughout the perinatal period, including fertility challenges, infertility, pregnancy, adjustment to parenthood and the emotional and relational changes associated with becoming parents.

Couples counselling focuses on communication difficulties, recurring conflict patterns, emotional disconnection, boundaries, intimacy and strengthening emotional security within the relationship.

Aree di competenza

My clinical approach is integrative, evidence-based and trauma-informed.
I draw primarily on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), complemented by interventions inspired by Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), attachment-based and systemic approaches, Narrative Therapy, mindfulness and body-centred approaches.

My main areas of clinical focus include anxiety, trauma and complex trauma, emotional regulation, relationship difficulties, couples counselling, grief, perinatal mental health, fertility and major life transitions.

In individual work, I place particular emphasis on emotional regulation, understanding the connection between body and emotions, boundaries, interpersonal patterns and communication. In couples work, I focus on identifying and transforming repetitive conflict cycles, strengthening emotional connection and developing healthier and more secure relationship patterns.

Therapy is a collaborative process, adapted to your individual needs, goals and pace.

Together, we explore the emotional and relational patterns that may be contributing to your current difficulties, while developing practical strategies that can be applied in everyday life.

My aim is not only to reduce distress, but also to help you better understand yourself, strengthen emotional regulation and autonomy, improve relationships and create meaningful and sustainable change.

Sessions are available only online in Portuguese and English.
