Every month, the Gallery Talks programme has brought people from a variety of backgrounds to Galeria Municipal do Porto to discuss the importance of art in their lives and careers. To round off the year, psychologist Gabriela Moita was invited to take part.

Do artistic practices, which are an important part of the psychodrama therapeutic approach, help us to appreciate the diversity of individual choices and equal rights in our shared lives? This question will form the basis of another Conversas de Galeria session.

Gabriela Moita has a degree in psychology from the University of Porto and a PhD in biomedical sciences from the same institution. She is a psychodramatist and sexologist who works primarily in clinical psychology in private practice. She received the ARCO ÍRIS award in 2003. She has done extensive volunteer and management work in various scientific organisations within her field. From 2021 to 2024, she was a member of the Clinical and Health Psychology Specialty Council of the Portuguese Psychological Association. She has appeared on several television programmes in Portugal and Brazil.
