About me
My name is Cristiane Feitoza, and I’ve been a psychologist since 2002. From the very beginning of my career, I’ve sought to combine technical knowledge, sensitivity, and a practical approach to the challenges we face throughout life.
I started out in clinical practice, supporting people through moments of pain and transformation. Over time, I challenged myself to explore other areas of psychology and entered the corporate world. For nearly ten years, I worked in Human Resources at major multinational companies, where I led international projects in Brazil, managed teams, and conducted recruitment and training programs. This intense experience even took me to Ireland, where I studied business English to better engage with global teams.
When my first daughter was born, I felt it was time to return to clinical work — now with an even clearer purpose. That’s when I specialized in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), an approach that allows me to support clients in a practical, ethical, and empathetic way.
My curiosity has never stopped. I also deepened my knowledge in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and neuroscience, integrating science and compassionate listening into every session.
Psychology, to me, is more than a profession — it’s a way of life. I live what I teach, and I bring genuine commitment to the well-being of each person I work with.
A meaningful chapter in my journey was living in Switzerland with my family. Moving abroad with two young children, adjusting to a new culture, and learning Italian were powerful experiences of growth. It was during this time that I deepened my studies in Intercultural Psychology and came to understand how migration deeply shapes our identity and relationships.
Today, I support young people and adults with a variety of emotional challenges, as well as immigrants, expatriates, and families in transition — with a warm and grounded approach for those living far from home.
If you feel the time has come to care for your emotional health, I would be honored to walk alongside you. Feel free to explore my clients’ testimonials on the website.
