Psychotherapy in English
I am Letícia Léos, a Brazilian psychologist offering therapy in English for expatriates, immigrants, and bilingual individuals.
I provide a confidential space where you can think, feel, and express yourself freely in English, your primary emotional language. This removes translation barriers, allowing for deeper access to emotions and experiences that are often difficult to articulate in a second language.
Who is this for?
• Expatriates & Immigrants navigating life transitions, cultural adaptation, and identity.
• People living abroad dealing with isolation, stress, or relationship dynamics from a distance.
• Bilingual individuals who find English a more natural space for emotional exploration.
My Approach: Beyond Symptom Management
My practice is grounded in the understanding that emotional suffering is linked to how we live and relate to the world. Therapy is not about "fixing" what's lacking, but a collaborative exploration of how your vital desires and forces have been constrained by rigid patterns, expectations, or unfulfilling ways of living. We work at your pace to create a life that feels more coherent, livable, and meaningful.
A Commitment to Inclusive & Affirming Care
With extensive experience in community-based work, I bring a strong ethical commitment to diversity and inclusion. My practice is a safe space for women, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and people from all cultural backgrounds. The goal is never to pathologize or normalize, but to support your unique identity and life trajectory.
Online or In-Person: A Space to Pause and Reconnect
Psychotherapy is a necessary interruption from the demands of constant productivity. It's a dedicated time to slow down, listen to yourself, and regain authorship of your own story. Whether online or at my office in São Paulo (Tatuapé), our work is built on confidentiality, presence, and responsibility.
The path may be complex, but change is possible. Let's build the conditions for greater clarity and more conscious ways of being together.
