Compassionate psychotherapy and coaching

About Me

Sara Jones is Psychologist, Psychotherapist, Somatic Coach and Facilitator specialising in Compassionate therapy, grief work and trauma awareness. Master in Clinical and Health Psychology, certified in Embodiment and Trauma Coaching and additionally trained in Person Centered Psychotherapy and Somatic Experiencing. Member of The British Psychological Society.

When I created Lumina Therapy I wanted to integrate techniques and approaches which would be adaptable and effective for my clients. I believe the most important thing I can offer as a therapist is a genuine human relationship with my clients, this creates a foundation from which change becomes possible.

Lumina Therapy was inspired by the idea of a lighthouse being not just a guide, but a comforting presence in dark times and a symbol of connection. Lumina is a place of openness and acceptance, where step by step we piece together the next phase of your journey together.

Compassionate Therapy

I work in private practice based in Cascais as well as online and facilitate at retreats and workshops in Portugal and elsewhere.

I help you to explore the experiences, beliefs and patterns that are holding you back, giving you not just an opportunity to be heard, but concrete techniques and tools as well as guidance for resolution, re-mapping and acceptance in order to move forward.

My approach is tailored to each individual I work with and conducted on a non-diagnostic basis, focused on compassion, empathy and unconditional positive regard.
