Testimonials
bonding minds patient
Lynn has provided a safe space that has always had the foundation of trust from day 1. Lynn has equipped with many tools and resources to help me manage my anxiety in ways I wouldn’t have thought possible. Lynn guided me towards identifying what my unhealthy thinking patterns were and taught me how to tackle these and correct and change them to healthier thinking patterns. Lynn helped me rebuild my brain in the best way possible. Lynn has been there to support me out of sessions aswell. I am grateful for the work we have done together and without Lynn, I would not be in the position I am today. Thank you Lynn for providing safety, trust and always being there.

Where do I begin to describe Alex and what she has done for me. When my daughter was going through her difficult journey to recovery, she was not only there for her in every sense of the word, but she was there for me too. Without her support, her encouragement, and frankly the therapy she gave me, I would not have had the know how nor the strength to help my daughter on her journey. Alex is insightful, extremely effective, most caring and empathetic. Instantly, upon meeting her you know that you are in the best of hands. As a family, we will forever be grateful that our paths crossed and she will forever be in our hearts.

Following over 15 years working with the same therapist, I was referred to Lynn by Dr Alberto Pertusa at the end of 2020 following a period of instability. It was a difficult time for everyone due to Covid-19 and being able to see Lynn virtually was a perfect option for me.

Dr. Alexandra Madureira has been my brother's psychologist for the past 7 years and she has actually become a crucial part of our family in his recovery journey... She has shown and proven that a kind, understanding and knowledgeable psychologist can make all the difference in the treatment of a patient and the healing of his entire family. Dr. Alex has become an anchor and a pillar for my brother through the years, always there for him and always guiding him to understand and actually see himself and his actions and decisions.

“As my therapist I found Lynn to be an excellent listener, highly empathetic and very incisive in her analysis of my situation. She brought a light and warm touch to the process whilst also being appropriately challenging and she used a wide array of tools including art therapy very effectively. She was sensitive and kind to me with an engaging sense of humour and at the same time very committed to helping me to achieve a constructive and positive outcome. I found the therapy to be enormously helpful and to have had a very positive impact on my life.”

I cannot think of a practitioner more qualified than Alexandra Madureira. Her insights on behavioral psychology and her mastery of multiple approaches to therapy make her the most talented, effective, and inspiring professional I ever had the chance to receive treatment from. Her ability to amalgamate complex information and package it in an accessible and inspirational way is second to none. I know from experience that she embraces even the most challenging of situations with empathy and humor, possessing the rare ability to communicate across cultures and generations with a high level of understanding and sensitivity.

"I can't say enough good things about Lynn! I had a complex presentation of different mental health problems, and I had already worked with several other therapists, with limited success. Lynn carefully grew to understand my difficulties and symptoms, and planned therapy in ways that suited me. Her therapy and guidance has brought me a long way, and I always turn to her first when I have difficult situations to deal with."

“Our adult son had a very challenging psychiatric condition, including very severe depression and anxiety. He was completely unable to cope with life and was despairing of finding someone who could help him get better. Lynn has been his psychotherapist for over a year now and, in liaison with psychiatrists, has transformed him into someone who can face the world again. Lynn is highly skilled and extremely kind, supportive and empathetic. She has always been ready to support our son in her calm and caring way, however challenging his condition.
bonding minds patient
We clicked immediately and I felt that Lynn understood me and why I was seeking help. Lynn's approach made me feel at ease and her knowledge and advice were a great help from my very first session. But Lynn doesn't stop at the end of the session, she was sending me information and things that I might find interesting even in between our appointments which was greatly appreciated and also shows how much she cares about her patients.
