Valeria Rosina Portaluppi

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Italo-Argentinian, with over 15 years of experience in public health, private practice, and interdisciplinary mental health teams. I work with adults and older adults seeking a therapeutic space to navigate psychological distress while also building meaningful life projects aligned with their desires. My clinical work focuses on anxiety, grief and loss, burnout, identity changes, aging-related transitions, and complex life crossroads. I offer psychoanalytic-oriented psychotherapy, combining deep reflective listening with a grounded understanding of everyday life challenges. My approach is especially suited for individuals facing transitions, persistent distress, or the need to redefine purpose and direction. I have extensive experience working across Latin American and European contexts, enriched by international academic and clinical exchanges in Scotland, as well as postgraduate training and scientific publications. This cross-cultural background allows me to work sensitively with international patients and diverse life trajectories. Alongside my private practice, I have developed a solid career in public hospitals and mental health emergencies, working with high-complexity clinical situations, interdisciplinary teams, and vulnerable populations. I have also held leadership and advisory roles in large mental health institutions, contributing to community-based care, institutional reform, and mental health policy implementation. Currently, my professional focus is centered on my private practice with an international orientation, offering online psychotherapy in Spanish and English for adults and older adults worldwide. I am committed to providing a space of ethical care, respect, confidentiality, and thoughtful clinical work that supports both relief from suffering and the construction of meaningful projects of life.
