About Pedro
Pedro Magalhães Lino brings seven years of clinical experience to his practice in the United Kingdom. He works from a belief that therapy is first and foremost a relationship. Pedro aims to create a calm space where people can speak openly and be listened to without judgement.
He helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction and identity concerns, among other issues. That includes work on self-esteem, intimacy-related concerns, grief and coping with life changes.
Background and approach
He also offers support around gender dysphoria, LGBT issues and multicultural or immigration-related challenges. Pedro draws on Client-Centred Therapy to keep sessions focused on the person and their experience. This means he prioritises listening and responding to what each client brings rather than imposing answers.
He also uses Psychodynamic Therapy to look at past experiences and recurring patterns that shape current feelings and relationships. His style is collaborative and reflective. He will think alongside clients about their relationships, their sense of self and what might be happening in the therapy room.
Sessions are paced to suit each person, with space to notice small changes over time. Pedro works in English and Portuguese and is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, MBACP. For practical next steps, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.

Approaches Pedro lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Pedro will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then adapt the method as sessions progress. The aim is a collaborative process where the approach matches the person rather than the other way around.
Please confirm current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, travel or family routines. It can reduce travel time, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and make scheduling more flexible. Registered or accredited professionals often find that talking remotely still supports meaningful therapeutic progress when the method and timing suit the client.
