My Story
Caring for patients and clients with a Holistic Approach
I was born in Coimbra, Portugal where I lived and worked as a Dentist until 2017. My family and I then moved to Wokingham, Berkshire where we've lived ever since. I'm very lucky since I still work as a Dentist in Windsor and Marlow alongside with my Hypnotherapy practice.
With over 20 years of experience as a dentist, I’ve always believed that my role goes beyond just caring for teeth and gums—it’s about caring for the whole person. Throughout my career, I’ve made it a priority to create a calm, supportive environment where patients feel safe, valued, and truly heard. Empathy and understanding have always been at the heart of how I work.
In the recent years, I’ve taken my passion for helping people to a new level by incorporating Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy (CBH) into my practice. This complementary approach allows me to support patients in managing anxiety, building confidence, and achieving a sense of empowerment that extends far beyond the dental chair. I have a level 5 Diploma from the UK College of Hypnosis & Hypnotherapy.
Helping others has always been second nature to me, and I’m constantly inspired by the resilience and strength people show when given the right tools and support. With CBH, I’ve found another way to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives, helping them overcome challenges and discover their inner strength.
Whether I’m providing dental care or guiding someone through hypnotherapy, my goal is always the same: to help people feel better, healthier, and more confident in themselves. It’s a privilege to be a part of that journey.
