Hello, my name is TaShawndra Govan and I am a LMHC (licensed mental health counselor) having graduated from Georgia State University in 2013. I have lived overseas for the last 10 years and have extensive experience working with expats who are living and working in different countries. I have also worked with clients who are local in their respective countries who were not able to find local mental health professionals.
I am a culturally competent and trauma-informed mental health provider and advocate. I believe that cultural competency is central to helping individuals and families of color feel safe; providing space where concerns are not downplayed and symptoms are not misinterpreted.
I am a good fit for people who struggle with unhealthy parent-child relationships often stemming from a history of substance use, domestic violence, abandonment, neglect, grief/loss and other disruptive family patterns and behaviors.
I understand it takes courage to seek treatment and disclose uncomfortable situations with someone. Therefore, I applaud you on this start of your journey towards wellness.

I am an experienced Gestalt psychotherapist offering both short and long term individual and couple therapy/counseling. I have been in private practice for 25+ years, in New York City and Miami, and now in Lisbon. Due to my locations in metropolitan cities I have had the privilege of working with people from all over the world and from a wide variety of cultures and belief systems. This has given me substantial experience in helping cross-cultural couples bridge their differences and find a common ground. Additionally, I work with expats of all ages and genders who are struggling to find their identity and a sense of belonging in a new country and culture.
My intention as a therapist is to engage with you and help you untangle emotional problems including anxiety, depression, burnout, grief, stress and loneliness to name a few. Gestalt therapy is a modality that takes into account the whole person and focuses on your awareness and experience in the here and now rather than analyzing your feelings and thoughts. The sessions are dynamic, relational, and creative.
I specialize in sexology, which means I help individuals and couples with issues related to intimacy, sexual trauma, lack of sexual function, lack of sexual desire or painful sex. Sexual problems are often the tip of an iceberg, a symptom of a person’s unhealed wounds or unresolved issues within the couple unit, thus we have to look at the whole picture and dig deeper to resolve the problem.
I see clients in my office in Lisbon or online, and try my best to accommodate different time zones.
Individual sessions 55 min, €150
Couple sessions 55min, €175
Some sliding scale spots are available and can be discussed on an individual basis.

With an extensive professional background, I am a committed individual, fulfilling roles as a woman, mother, and psychotherapist, backed by nine years of valuable experience. My specialization lies in delivering multilingual, cross-culturally sensitive, neurodiversity-affirming, and trauma-informed Relational Psychotherapy, catering to both adolescents and adults. Grounded in a therapeutic approach that is both multipersonal and intrapsychic, my focus is on understanding and therapeutically addressing the intersubjective mind. Recognizing the inherent interconnectedness of the human mind with others, I emphasize the inseparability of an individual's existence from their social context. To facilitate this exploration, I provide a secure environment for individuals to delve into their inner worlds and navigate recurrent relational patterns inherent in human interpersonal experience. In the realm of relational psychotherapy, my goal is to instill a deep appreciation for life, prioritizing authenticity over normality. Beyond symptom alleviation, my approach seeks to liberate individuals from various inhibiting forces, whether social, cultural, or otherwise. This process involves revisiting and unraveling knots, empowering individuals to freely express themselves by challenging, reconfiguring, and discarding organizing principles that no longer align with their personal understanding. Equally crucial is the reconnection of patients with their bodies, engaging with somatic experiences and true selves. This involves a return to spontaneous acts and vitality, acknowledging the intricate embodiment of the mind in the psychic-soma. The reparative journey entails capturing problematic emotional states and applying empathy as a psychological tool – fundamental for comprehending the subjective experiences of others through introspection and interoception.

I am a qualified psychotherapist/counselor, offering individual online or onsite therapy. I have trained at ELEIA Center of Psychological Activities, a well-reputed institute for psychotherapy and relationship counseling.
Starting therapy can be exciting, since it helps us to know ourselves and therefore, to know what we need to feel better and/or more satisfied with our life. But it can also be a difficult process to begin, since sometimes we have doubts, fears, and insecurities that do not allow us to do so. I invite you to start a process where we will discover together the events in your life that have brought you to the moment in which you find yourself now; or discover what it may be that is preventing you from achieving your goals. We will then be able to work on making changes in order to overcome the obstacles you find yourself presented with.
Life is full of ups and downs, so it is normal that sometimes we feel devastated, sad, worried, stressed, lost, vulnerable, tired of the life we lead, tired of the people around us, tired of ourselves… and so we need to make a change to stop being in that situation.
I specialize in self-esteem and inhibitions, the type of therapy that I offer is the psychodynamic model, which consists of carrying out a therapeutic process based on understanding our mind, emotions, thoughts and dreams. Sometimes painful experiences from the past can influence the way we behave and interact with others nowadays. This therapy seeks to solve our problems or conflicts by identifying their roots, the therapist helps us to discover the unknown or subconscious causes, in order for us to understand why we have the conflicts and how we can address them.
60€ per individual session.
Session duration (55-60 minutes), once or twice a week, depending in each case.

I am a qualified adult and couple psychotherapist, offering therapy in English and Italian language. I have a full marks master’s degree in Clinical Psychology. I specialized in a four-year Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapy course, and I am an EMDR licensed therapist.
My technique is integrating further approaches, including Attachment Theory, Chair Dialogue, Sensory Motor Psychotherapy, Mindfulness. I have a toolbox that I will use in a tailored way, depending on the history, personality, needs and the symptoms my client is presenting. I am a very curious and passionate professional who likes to keep on learning about approaches and theories.
My experience includes working for the National Health Service in London, specifically in the Anxiety Disorders Residential Unit (Bethlem Royal Hospital). During my nine months in London, I worked with traumatized patients, obsessive-compulsive pathology, eating disorders, personality disorders, mood disorders.
Since 2018, I’ve been working as a freelance psychotherapist for clients, and my interest has been captured by the traumatic events that underlie many kinds of psychopathology. Many times we think about trauma a very rare event, and my experience and formation taught me this is not always the case. Thanks to EMDR, I am confident your path with me will be a powerful experience. I also care about the relationship with my clients and like to discuss it, as we know that the attachment experiences you had in your past and current life are often replicated within the therapeutic relationship. Healing also means to slowly start to acknowledge your present schemes and change them in the “here and now” of our relationship.
I will always consider your request first, the problem that brings you to therapy in this very particular moment of your life.
I offer both onsite (based in Bologna, Italy) and online therapy.
From €100.00 to €180.00
