Dr. João Pestana
Hello,
My name is João Pestana. I hold a degree in Clinical Psychology and I am a Specialist in Clinical Health Psychology recognized by the Ordem dos Psicólogos Portugueses. I am also a member of the Association for Comprehensive Energy Psychology and the European Society for Trauma and Dissociation.
The name Método Pestana reflects the evolution of my professional path — how, over more than twenty years of clinical work, I have woven together psychological practice with the teaching and training activities I pursue across other areas of personal and professional interest. At its core is a collaborative ethos: working alongside each person who seeks my support, whether in a clinical setting or a learning environment.
Early on in my academic journey, I became deeply interested in the relationship between body and mind — a field now explored through psychoneuroimmunology and the biopsychosocial model of health. This interest shaped my final‑year dissertation, “The Role of Spiritual Well‑Being in the Quality of Life of Oncology Patients Undergoing Chemotherapy”,
