Why see a Brazilian psychiatrist
Moving solves a lot of things and complicates others. These are the most common concerns of Brazilians who look for psychiatric care while living abroad.
Care was under way in Brazil, and the move interrupted the follow-up visits, reassessments and adjustments that depended on a consultation.
Describing how you feel in a language learned as an adult is not the same as describing it in your native language, the one you think and dream in.
In many countries the wait for a mental health appointment is long, or private care costs more than fits comfortably into everyday life.
Homesickness, family far away, paperwork, adapting, starting over at work. With a Brazilian psychiatrist, that context is already understood.
How it works
It takes less than a minute: your name, WhatsApp and the country where you live.
On WhatsApp, respecting your time zone. Date, fees and payment method are arranged at this point.
In Portuguese, through a link sent in advance. The first consultation is longer and starts with your story.
Follow-up visits are scheduled according to your case, so care continues even at a distance.
Where patients live
The consultation is online and in Portuguese, so what matters is your time zone, not your address. Today, care reaches Brazilians living in:
Live somewhere else? Care is still possible. We just need to find a time that works on both sides.
Who will see you
The consultation starts with your story, at your pace. You understand the reasoning behind each decision: why a diagnosis was considered, why a treatment was chosen and what to expect from it. And you have room to ask questions and to disagree.

Frequently asked questions
Yes. The consultation takes place by video, in Portuguese, and the time is arranged around the time zone of the country where you live. You need a stable internet connection and a private space for about an hour.
It depends on local law. Each country has its own rules about prescriptions issued by foreign doctors, and psychiatric medications often have additional requirements. This is discussed openly in the consultation, together with the options available in your case, including working with a local doctor when needed.
Nothing is promised before the assessment.
No. The consultation is for people continuing care that started in Brazil and for people looking for a first assessment.
It is longer than follow-up visits and starts with your story: what is happening, since when, what has already been tried, how your sleep, work and relationships are going. From there, possible explanations, treatment options and what to expect from each decision are discussed.
Fees and the payment methods accepted for people abroad are explained by the team when they contact you, before anything is booked. No surprises and no commitment until you confirm.
Yes. Medical confidentiality applies fully to video consultations, exactly as it does in person.
If you are in immediate danger or thinking about hurting yourself, contact the emergency services of the country you are in (112 in the European Union, 911 in the United States and Canada, 999 in the United Kingdom). In Portuguese, CVV offers support 24 hours a day at cvv.org.br.
