About Thaís
BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with ten years of clinical experience. Thaís Iglesias works with trauma and abuse, grief, eating concerns, self-esteem and depression. She also focuses on body image, chronic pain and illness, communication problems, and women’s issues.
Thaís has a degree in Psychology and a specialisation in Mental Health. She later completed a Master’s degree in Art Therapy in the United Kingdom. Her background includes work in both private practice and public institutions over a decade of practice.
She notices when words alone do not capture a person’s experience. That observation led her to include art-based ways of working alongside talking. In sessions she invites different forms of expression to help people notice feelings and make sense of painful events.
Her approach is practical and process-focused. Sessions may involve discussion, creative activities, and reflection together. The aim is to help people recognise patterns, process loss or trauma, and find ways to manage distress day to day.
Thaís works in English and Portuguese. Her practice accepts international clients. Before booking, clients are asked to confirm current session options and formats. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange a first session.

How therapeutic approaches and online sessions connect
Thaís uses art therapy alongside talking therapies to help people express feelings that can be hard to put into words. Art-based methods let clients use images, drawing or other creative tasks to access emotions and memories in a different way. This can be useful for trauma, grief and body image concerns.She also works with evidence-based techniques that focus on symptom recognition and coping. These approaches involve identifying patterns, noticing triggers, and practising strategies to manage anxiety, panic or depressive symptoms. They are practical tools to use between sessions as well as during appointments.
Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist will discuss options with the client and try ways of working that fit the client’s needs and goals. Adjustments are made as understanding grows so the chosen methods match what helps most.
The biography does not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow a shorter check-in when needed. Phone or video choices each have practical differences such as camera use, bandwidth needs and the length of a check-in, so discuss preferences when arranging the first session.
