PEAK PERFORMANCE
A programme designed by specialised psychologists to help you excel in high-responsibility executive roles and enhance your management and decision-making skills.
Why?
Even when you have an efficient and disciplined working method, you may develop automatic habits that stop you from fully using your cognitive and creative potential.
At times, you may not have full access to everything your brain and body are capable of. How do you know the limits of your brain’s functioning? Which neural connections have developed? Which mechanisms can help you expand your knowledge and boost your cognitive capacity?
Through this Peak Performance programme, designed by Oficina de Psicologia, you will identify your strengths and resources — as well as discover “performance switches” that you may not be consciously controlling. These switches can trigger daily patterns that drain your energy and resources. Where would you prefer to invest your energy — and where might you be wasting it?
What for?
This programme may be right for you if you want to:
-
Gain greater creative focus or clearer decision-making skills
-
Become more productive and stay focused for longer
-
Overcome repetitive thinking and better understand complex situations
-
Manage high levels of stress more effectively
-
Improve how you communicate
How?
This peak performance work takes a comprehensive approach that supports optimal functioning in life and at work. You can choose to focus on expanding your strengths or on improving specific areas you feel could be developed.

I've been fascinated by human behaviour since I was a child—the "why" behind our emotions, our reactions, and the relationships we build. This fascination led me to pursue a degree in Health Psychology, which I completed in 2007.
Over the years, my journey has evolved naturally. I started in the geriatric field, then moved on to working with adults, and later had the opportunity to work with children—an experience that turned into a deep passion. Today, I work with both children and adults, but it is within the world of childhood that I find some of my greatest challenges and motivations.
As I work daily with children, parents, and schools, I felt the need to deepen my knowledge of education. This led me to embark on a new journey and return to university, where I am now completing my second degree, this time in Education.
I love stimulating children's cognitive development, and I believe that each child has their own pace and unique needs. My commitment is to tailor every intervention individually, ensuring they feel understood, supported, and capable of reaching their full potential. I also strive to help families feel more secure and confident in their role—because raising a child can be challenging, but with the right support, everything becomes easier!
For me, true change happens when children, families, and schools work together. When everyone moves in the same direction, the results speak for themselves.
