Anikó TÅ‘zsér - Psychologist in Lisbon and online
Therapy for Expats and International Residents in Lisbon
Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected — or facing challenges in your intimate life?
No one taught us how to live abroad and handle it all at once.
Intimacy issues?
Expat depression or anxiety?
Perfectionism making life harder?
Trying to figure out who you are in this new environment?
I’m a psychologist specialised in intimacy and sexual well-being.
Let’s start making sense of it together in your next session.
My therapeutic approaches
-
Katathym Imaginative Psychotherapy (KIP) – using guided imagery to access deeper emotional layers safely.
-
Autogenic Training – relaxation and self-regulation techniques that reduce stress and support balance.
-
Cognitive and Schema-based tools – practical strategies for managing thoughts, behaviours, and long-standing patterns.
-
Internal Family Systems (IFS, in training) – exploring different parts of the self to restore harmony and inner clarity.
"I’m doing MUCH better now. I finally feel like I’m driving my life, not just sitting in the passenger seat."
(Ana, Health Economist, expat in the UK)
David, expat from Poland, Mechanical Engineer
"A highly professional therapist with deep knowledge. She creates a safe and open space, free of judgment, where honest conversations can unfold. Her thoughtful questions often reveal hidden aspects that are key to better understanding ourselves."
Kelly, mother of two
"The best help I’ve ever received in my life came from Anikó. She doesn’t judge or push, but guides the conversation in a way that helps bring out what’s been hidden deep inside. I don’t know how it works, but it does — and the emotion wheel has been especially helpful."
Alex, Pharmaceutical Researcher
"What I appreciated most about Anikó is that she asks really good questions. She brings up perspectives I would never think of myself, and this gave me a new way of looking at things. The most helpful part of therapy for me was the idea of acceptance. Before, I tried to fight pain, which only made it stronger. Through therapy, I learned to accept my emotions and the pain itself — and that eventually led first to easing the pain, and then to its disappearance."
