Psychology

Completion of my Psychology degree at Faculdades Metropolitanas Unidas in June 2023. My undergraduate research on muscle dysmorphia led to an article co-authored with Helena Amstalden Imanishi, published in Atas de Ciências da Saúde.

Neuropsychology

01 / LANGUAGE, CULTURE AND CONTEXT

A practice attentive
to life between cultures.

Living between countries or languages can change the ways we relate, work and experience belonging.

International Relations is one part of this trajectory. In clinical practice, the focus is on how these experiences take shape in each person’s story, without reducing them to a single label.
