| Português Hi, I’m Patricia Martins, a Portuguese and Spanish speaking psychologist who helps immigrants find their place in Australia. I know how hard it can be to leave your home country and start a new life in a different culture. I’ve been there myself. That’s why I decided to dedicate my career to helping people like you, who are going through a similar journey. Whether you are struggling with emotional distress, anxiety, loneliness, or any other issue, I’m here to support you and help you thrive in your new environment.
I believe that every person is unique and deserves a personalized approach to therapy. That’s why I use a variety of techniques, from psychodynamic to cognitive-behavioural, to suit your needs and goals. I also draw from my own experience as an immigrant and a therapist to offer you a warm, compassionate, and culturally sensitive space.
If you are looking for a psychologist in Melbourne who can help you navigate the challenges and opportunities of living in a new country, you’ve come to the right place. I would love to hear from you and start working together. To book a session with me, please send a message or contact me through Instagram.
