About Patricia
Patricia Oliveira is a psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom who offers sessions in English and Portuguese. She trained in psychology in Brazil and brings ten years of experience to her practice. Patricia works from a Jungian and psychodynamic perspective and often supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, anxiety and depression, and relationship and parenting concerns.
She creates a space where people can speak openly and reflect on what matters to them.
Background and approach
Sessions are paced to allow insight and inner movement, rather than chasing quick fixes. Patricia listens for patterns from past and present that affect everyday life. Her work commonly addresses family and parenting difficulties, attachment and abandonment concerns, and the stresses of immigration and cultural change.
She also helps people facing grief, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem struggles, and career setbacks. Practical worries and deeper emotional themes are both welcomed in sessions. Patricia draws on Jungian Therapy alongside psychodynamic ideas to explore symbolism, personal history, and recurring relationship patterns.
She aims to help people notice unconscious themes that shape feelings and choices. Conversations can include reflection on dreams, memories, and emotional responses. Sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs.
Patricia works with individuals from diverse backgrounds and is familiar with multicultural issues and sexuality-related concerns. Her BACP credential is listed as provided.

Ways of working Patricia names
Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.
Jungian-informed care online and practical session options
Patricia uses Jungian Therapy to look at recurring themes, dreams and symbols that show up in daily life. This approach helps people make sense of long-standing patterns and inner conflicts, especially around identity, attachment and issues rooted in past relationships.She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to explore how early experiences and unconscious feelings shape current reactions. That work can help when people struggle with abandonment, codependency, family of origin problems, or ongoing emotional emptiness.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Patricia works collaboratively to match method and pace to a person's needs, goals and preferences. She will talk through options and adjust the approach as therapy progresses so it feels useful and manageable.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is suited to deeper conversational work, phone can help when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging work well for shorter check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
