Nuno de Noronha Pinheiro

Clinical Psychologist, Psycho-Oncologist, Specialized in Clinical and Mental Health Psychology. Official Member of Portuguese Psychologists nº12170. Finally, I am also a Registered EuroPsy Psychologist. Fluent in three languages (Portuguese, English and French). I have a MSc. Degree in Clinical Psychology from the Instituto Superior de Psicologia Aplicada (ISPA) University and completed my Post-Graduation at Serviço de Apoio Psicológico e Psicoterapia (S.A.P.P.), where I learned a Psychotherapy Model that combines the Psychoanalytical Model, with Carl Roger's Client-Centered therapy, the Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy and Viktor Frankl's Logotherapy. After successfully completing this Post-Graduation with the maximum grade, I was invited to stay and work at S.A.P.P. In the meantime, I attended various courses, including a one-year in Psychogerontology and an Advanced Course in The Rorschach Ink Test, both at (ISPA). Lastly, I studied and completed a Second Master's Degree (MSc.) in Palliative Care (2017), at the Portuguese Catholic University (UCP), which included a 300 hour Internship at one of the most prestigious Hospitals in Portugal - The Hospital da Luz (Lisbon). During my Internship, I have had the chance to work in an interdisciplinary team and choose a topic for further research. I chose the Reminiscence Therapy (RT), Personal Legacy Therapy and Max Harvey Chochinov's Dignity Therapy. As such, I was invited to participate in a Scientific Paper named "Creating a Legacy - a Tool to Support End of Life Patients", published in the European Journal of Palliative care, in early 2018. In 2018, I was invited to work at Hospital da Luz (Lisbon), as a Psycho-Oncologist, individually, with my Clients. Due to the fact that I am the Son of a Portuguese Embassador, I have had the opportunity to live and study in Switzerland (Collège du Léman) and 6 years later, at the European School in Belgium, for 4 years. As such, I studied all of Primary School in French, and, upon my return to Portugal, I switched to the English language (at St. Dominic’s School and St. Julian’s School) - where I completed my International Baccalaureate (IB). I am, therefore, fluent in three languages and have a C1 Diploma in French and a C2 Diploma in English. I am now looking to expand my professional activity as a Clinical Psychologist, in other countries, through Videoconference and work with a 27-inch iMac high 5K-resolution display for optimal visual and sound quality.
