I am a CLINICAL specialist.
![](https://psychoanalystlondon.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Maria-R-de-Almeida-12-3-683x1024.jpg)
I treat, with the utmost professionalism, any condition or psychological disorder you suffer from. From the simplest to the most difficult. Highly specialized training and professional experience. Efficiency, quality and warmth. I care about you. I know how to listen to you.
Sometimes you are overcome by certain situations: crisis of growth, crisis of adolescence, marriage crisis, crisis at work, economic crisis, relationship crisis …
It might be that you have everything but… you are not happy, neither with your partner, nor with the life you lead, nor with your job.
Or maybe, you have not achieved anything you wanted, you have practically nothing finished, everything is half done, you are desperate. For all these types of questions you can contact us. A crisis is an opportunity to grow, it all depends on… what you do with it!
Psychoanalysis is more than therapy, it goes beyond mental health challenges. It is a mindset, a tool to “read reality”. We do not need to be sick to have therapy. Reality is different from what it seems. It helps you transform yourself and reality around you so that you can reach your full potential as never before.
Psychoanalysis not only remove symptoms that trouble you but it can also help you think differently; improve your relationships (family, friendship, couple, work…), be more creative and productive, more successful and hence happier and healthier. It is like poetry: it opens up possibilities. It builds a new life.
Every illness has a psychic component. We know that if we have low defenses, we are more likely to catch some diseases. If there is a depression, an immunosuppression occurs correlatively, therefore, our defensses go down.

PSYCHOSOMATIC DISORDER
Medicine has made big PROGRESS, progress which can make a big difference when treating the BIOLOGICAL BODY.
However, we can not forget… our PSYCHE. We are LED by our UNCONSCIOUS mind, by our psyche: from the minute we get sick to the moment we “choose” to heal, get worse or… die .
Nothing is RANDOM!!
Any illness should address both: body & mind (soul). From the ones with bad prognosis to those that are chronic or have outbreaks.
Being MENTALLY healthy PREVENTS diseases.
- Asthma
- Allergies
- Fibriomyalgia
- Ulcerative colitis, Chron’s disease, IBS, SIBO
- Psoriasis, skin diseases
- Autoimmune diseases (lupus, rheumatoid arthritis)
- Cancer, AIDS
More and more there is scientific evidence about the link between chronic disease and trauma. Specially in complex chronic diseases:
- Mould toxicity
- MCAS
- POTs
- Chronic fatigue syndrom
- Hypothyroid / hypo adrenal stat
If you suffer from any of these diseases, in addition to the medical treatment, it will HELP you a lot to have PSYCHOANALYSIS .
