About Thaís Iglesias

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Thaís combines psychoanalytic-informed work and art therapy to support people in exploring difficult emotions and experiences. Psychoanalytic-informed approaches focus on understanding patterns in feelings and relationships, helping with long-standing issues such as depression, anxiety, and relational difficulties by exploring underlying thoughts and emotional responses.

Art therapy uses creative processes to access emotions that can be hard to express in words, making it especially helpful for trauma, grief, and experiences where speech alone feels limiting. This expressive work can uncover new ways of making sense of painful memories and of building resilience.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and Thaís works collaboratively with clients to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Registered professionals and therapists often combine methods to tailor care to each person.

Online therapy with Thaís is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes scheduling more flexible and accessible for clients in different locations. These options support continuity of care and allow clients to engage in therapy from settings that feel most comfortable to them.
