A grounded space to know yourself, in your own language
I'm Gabriel Oliveira Gama Narici, a clinical psychologist (CRP 03/15783) based in Salvador, Brazil, working with a Jungian (Analytical Psychology) approach. I offer online psychotherapy in fluent English for expats living in Brazil and for Brazilians living abroad, wherever you are.
Living across cultures brings its own kind of psychological work
Whether you're an expat adjusting to life in Brazil, or a Brazilian living abroad navigating distance, identity and belonging, therapy in a language you feel truly fluent in can make a real difference. I work with adults facing anxiety, depression, burnout, mood and personality difficulties, life transitions, and broader questions of self-understanding.
Many people I work with are drawn to depth-oriented, reflective therapy rather than short, symptom-focused fixes — people who want to understand their own patterns, not just manage them.
This may be a good fit if you are
- An expat living in Brazil, wanting therapy without a language barrier
- A Brazilian living abroad, navigating distance, identity or belonging
- An English speaker anywhere, looking for a Jungian, depth-oriented approach
- Someone who prefers ongoing, reflective work over quick, surface-level advice
What a Jungian approach means, in plain terms
Individuation
Carl Gustav Jung described individuation as the lifelong process of becoming more whole and more authentically yourself — integrating aspects of yourself that were previously dissociated or unrecognized.
Shadow work
The "shadow" refers to everything we tend to avoid recognizing in ourselves. Jungian therapy doesn't aim to eliminate these parts, but to create space where they can be understood and, gradually, integrated with less suffering.
Symbol and meaning
Dreams, images and personal narratives are treated as the symbolic language of the psyche. Working with this material deepens your understanding of your own trajectory — without formulas or hasty interpretations.
In practice, this looks like attentive listening, working through emotional material, and building meaning together — always at the pace that fits your own process.
Online sessions, built around your time zone
All English-language sessions happen by secure video call, so distance is not a barrier. I regularly work with clients across the Americas, Europe, the UK and Australia, and we find a recurring weekly time that works with your schedule and time zone — not just mine.
There are no listed prices on this website: fees, cadence and scheduling are discussed individually during your initial conversation, once we understand what you're looking for.
What to expect from the format
- Confidential, ongoing sessions by video call
- A consistent weekly (or agreed) time slot in your own time zone
- Sessions conducted entirely in English
- Same clinical and ethical standards as in-person care in Brazil
Training, practice and research behind the work
Psychology degree from the Federal University of Bahia (UFBA); postgraduate specialization in Clinical Psychology with a Jungian approach from the Jungian Institute of Bahia; postgraduate specialization in Neuropsychology from UNIFACS.
Since 2018, I've accumulated over 10,000 hours of clinical practice, in private practice and, since 2021, also at Clínica Holos, in Salvador. I'm also a researcher affiliated with NuCuS/UFBA (research group on Subjectivation, Race, Gender and Sexuality), which keeps my clinical work in ongoing dialogue with academic research.
Credentials at a glance
Before you begin
Yes. Sessions follow the confidentiality standards of the Brazilian Federal Council of Psychology (CFP), the same professional and ethical rules that apply to in-person care. What is shared in session stays between us, with the legal exceptions that apply to any clinical practice (such as imminent risk to life).
Sessions happen by video call, at a consistent weekly time agreed together, adjusted to your time zone. All you need is a private space and a stable internet connection.
Start by filling out the short application form. It helps me understand your situation before we speak, so our first conversation can be more focused. From there, we schedule an initial conversation to discuss fit, format and fees.
