Who we are
The First Practice of Clinical Psychology Schema started its activities in Lisbon, in 2008, bringing together a team of Psychologists specialized in the most varied areas of Clinical Psychology. This project summarizes the culmination of years of research in the field of Clinical Psychology and Psychological well-being combined with a very specific philosophy of what Psychology is, Psychotherapy and the various variables that influence work between a Psychologist and those who seek it. The objective of our Psychologists is to increase the degrees of freedom of our patients and consequently improve their quality of life. Based on a comprehensive and integrated notion of the various fields of Psychology, each Schema professional is equipped with all the necessary tools to be able to intervene in any disorder or Psychopathology at any age. We make sure that each Psychologist that integrates our clinical staff has an appropriate specialization for the case in which he will intervene. By bringing together a team that comes both from the area of Dynamic Psychology and from the various areas of Cognitive-Behavioral and Integrative, Cognitive and Systemic Psychology, we can offer a wide range of interventions to better meet the needs of the Patient. Currently, in an attempt to respond to the needs that have been presented to us, we also integrate this into our Doctors' offices. Because nothing is more important than who comes to us, we believe that everything starts at the beginning, a “simple” thought... and thoughts can be restructured to increase psychological well-being and, as a direct consequence, also physical. Our Clinics and Clinical Psychologists are governed, in their conduct and clinical practice, by the rules of Ethics and Deontology of the Order of Portuguese Psychologists and the American Psychological Association, which can be consulted at: https://www.ordemdospsicologos.pt/ pt/cod_deontologico and https://www.apa.org/ethics/code Consult the Health Regulatory Entity Website to find out about the Rights and Duties of Patients https://www.ers.pt Discover our website!

Our Environments WELL-BEING AT THE SERVICE OF THERAPY
When the project to create the really physical space of the Schema Consultations began, there was one objective in mind: Well-being. This aspect went through several points, but to begin with, it went through the creation of a space that would transmit serenity, calm and in which it would be extremely pleasant to be, for long hours - in the case of our professionals - and during a therapeutic session - in the case of our patients. In this way, we would achieve an alliance between the search for Psychological well-being and that of Physical well-being. There would be the ideal space, according to our conception, to develop the conditions considered optimal for any Therapy. This is one of the characteristics of the Schema Group: Our concern... for you! Each Therapy room is inspired by a City of Our Terrestrial Globe. In the Waiting Rooms, we reserve a serene environment for our patients, helped by the constant flow of water from a fountain, in loco, and by the amount of images of different wonders of the world, from the fantastic Petronas Towers, in Malaysia, to the immense Wall of China, passing through a series of other unique places.
