Patricia Oliveira, BACP

Patricia Oliveira is a Brazilian psychotherapist based in England who offers therapy in both Portuguese and English. She completed her undergraduate and Master’s degrees in Psychology in Brazil and brings ten years of clinical experience to her practice, working from Jungian and psychodynamic perspectives. Patricia's approach favors thoughtful exploration over quick fixes - creating a space where insight and gradual inner change can emerge through reflective dialogue.

Her work covers a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, parenting and family dynamics, long-term trauma, and the emotional challenges that can accompany immigration and adapting to new cultural contexts. She pays particular attention to relationship and intimacy issues, attachment and abandonment themes, blended family situations, and other complex family-of-origin matters.

Patricia holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which denotes professional recognition within the UK counselling and psychotherapy community. She accepts both UK-based and international clients and offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or in-app messaging. Her practice is aimed at people seeking thoughtful, depth-oriented support for life transitions, interpersonal struggles, and emotional recovery.

Jungian and Psychodynamic Approaches Delivered Online

Patricia uses Jungian therapy to explore symbols, dreams, and the deeper layers of personal meaning; this approach can help people working through identity questions, complex relationship patterns, and life transitions. She also draws on psychodynamic perspectives that focus on how past experiences and early relationships shape current feelings and behaviors, which can be useful for addressing attachment issues, longstanding trauma, and repeated interpersonal difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Patricia works collaboratively with each client to identify which methods feel most helpful based on their needs, goals, and preferences, reflecting the way licensed professionals and therapists tailor care to individual circumstances.

Online therapy allows clients to access those same depth-oriented approaches through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options provide flexibility for people juggling work, family, or relocation, and make it easier to continue consistent therapeutic work across distances and time zones.
