With over 19 years of experience in medicine, haematology and clinical research, my work has evolved to explore the relationship between physiology, nervous system regulation and long-term health.
With over 19 years of experience in medicine, haematology and clinical research, my work has evolved to explore the relationship between physiology, nervous system regulation and long-term health.
I’m Ana Baptista, a medical doctor and specialist in clinical haematology with over 19 years of experience in clinical practice, medical leadership and haematology/oncology clinical trials.
I have always been passionate about understanding the human being and how we function. By the age of 17, I knew I wanted to dedicate my life to that. Since I also loved working with people, choosing medicine felt almost inevitable.
My work has always been rooted in science, clinical practice, haematology, oncology clinical trials and international medical leadership. I have worked in clinical research, supervised drug development and collaborated with leading pharmaceutical and healthcare organisations.
Over time, I became increasingly fascinated by the aspects of health that conventional medicine does not always fully explain: why symptoms may persist, how stress and adaptation affect the body, and how physiology, nervous system regulation, body awareness and lived experience influence long-term wellbeing.
I continue to practise as a medical doctor. When a conventional medical approach is needed, I recognise its place, provide appropriate care within my scope, or refer to the right specialist. To me, these approaches are not separate. They are part of a more integrated understanding of the person.
Today, my practice brings together scientific knowledge, clinical experience and evidence-informed supportive approaches to help people better understand the patterns that may be influencing their health, resilience and overall wellbeing.
Many people seeking this work are highly capable and outwardly functioning well, yet feel something is off, almost like they are disconnected from themselves, or their subconscious is working against them.
This approach may be helpful for:
This work complements conventional medical care by integrating medical knowledge with physiology, nervous system regulation and the lived human experience.
Exploring health through physiology, regulation and human experience. Every journey begins with a comprehensive assessment and evolves according to your individual needs, physiology and clinical context.
A comprehensive medical assessment exploring your health history, physiology, nervous system regulation and the patterns that may be influencing your wellbeing.
Evidence-informed approaches designed to improve regulation, resilience and the body’s capacity to adapt to stress.
Practical breathing and awareness-based techniques that support autonomic regulation and everyday resilience.
An evolving process integrating medical expertise, physiology and supportive approaches according to your individual needs.
This work happens on two levels. Through NLP and coaching, you learn to recognise your thought patterns, set clear intentions and align your choices with what truly matters to you. Somatic modalities such as Spinal Energetics and Breathwork journeys work more directly, through the body’s own movement and expression, reaching what is held beyond words.
Simple breathing exercises, practised consistently, are one of the most direct ways to influence your nervous system. You learn them in individual sessions or in group settings, so you can use them on your own, whenever you need to come back to yourself.
