Background and approach

Fernanda draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood disorders, loneliness, and workplace issues. She also helps people who struggle with guilt, shame, or the need to forgive themselves.

To begin, select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a session according to therapist availability. Fernanda aims to help clients feel understood and supported while they work toward clearer goals.

Evidence-based approaches and online care

Fernanda uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and emotional processing. One common approach emphasizes learning coping skills and routines to reduce anxiety and manage daily stressors; this helps people regain a sense of control and calm. Another approach concentrates on processing grief and difficult emotions through guided conversation and pacing, so people can move forward without feeling rushed.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Fernanda works with each person to identify goals, try methods that fit their situation, and adjust as needed. She encourages feedback and makes changes when something isn’t working so the plan stays useful and realistic.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video lets you see facial expressions and hold deeper conversations, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging provide shorter check-ins or a way to communicate between sessions. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
