Paula Campos

Dr. Paula Campos is a Clinical Psychologist and Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist. She began her professional career in São Paulo, working with children and adolescents in an institutional setting, and this significant experience set the tone for a career that has been shaped by her ambition to find happiness in every professional project. Returning to Portugal, she started a clinical intervention project in kindergartens and primary schools, where her interest in combining psychoanalysis and education began to take shape and continues to do so to this day.
She decided to return to Brazil and this time went to the Northeast, where, among other activities, she developed a mental health intervention project through ballet, which she herself taught to the children of the small fishing village where she lived. These experiences with late childhood and adolescence left her wanting to understand how the symptoms she observed in those developmental phases would appear in early childhood. She intended to intervene early in the hope of improving prognoses and reducing human suffering, so she went to learn how to work with babies and young children at the Early Childhood Unit of the Dona Estefânia Hospital.
At the same time, she always maintained her work in private practice with babies, children, adolescents, and adults. Later, she trained as a Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist and co-founded a new Association for the Training of Psychotherapists, Psirelacional (Association of Relational Psychoanalysis), where she remains to this day teaching and contributing to the training of new Psychotherapists.
Years later, he received an invitation to become a lecturer at ISPA (University Institute of Psychological, Social and Life Sciences), where he teaches to this day.
He created the Clinic Mytherapist (www.mytherapist.pt), where she is the Clinical Director.
She is the Co-Director of the Magazine. Relational Perspectives in Psychoanalysis.
She is a Clinical Case Supervisor.
She is a mother and passionate about life!
