Ana Monção

Non-directive psychotherapist since 2001 (by the Portuguese Association of Client-Centered Psychotherapy and Person Centered Approach and by the European Network for Person-Centred and Experiential Psychotherapy and Counselling– PCE Europe). She practices in private clinic. She is PhD in Psycholinguistics (researcher and university professor since 1987 at the Universidade Nova de Lisboa) and postgraduate in Neurosciences (Neuropsychology and Dementias) from the University of Barcelona.

In 2016 I leave the university career in the state service to dedicate myself entirely to psychotherapy and to other personal and professional projects.
I was responsible for several graduate courses and coordinator of research sub-units. I scientifically organized the International Congress Art, Brain and Languages (Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and Casa da Música, Oporto) with a strongly interdisciplinary structure. I was a student at the Conservatory of Theater and Cinema, at the Pas de Dieux Company (Paris) and at the Photography Course at Escola ARCO.

I have training in Rogerian Psychodrama and Ludotherapy (UK), in Neurophysiology of Emotions (with Susana Bloch, CNRS) and in the Approach to the Sheborne Movement. I took individual classes in Functional Integration (Feldenkrais Somatic Education Method).
