About Heart-Driven Healing
Heart-Driven Healing is a space where you are invited to meet yourself exactly as you are. Here, healing is not about fixing what is broken, but remembering that nothing ever was.
It is about making space for your full, messy, wonderful humanity. A space where we get curious about your mind, befriend your emotions, and learn to live closer to your values and to what truly matters to you.
​​
What makes Heart-Driven Healing unique is the way it blends Acceptance & Commitment Therapy with the wisdom of nature, alongside grounded support for integrating meaningful life experiences, including those arising through plant medicine.
Psychology & Nature's Wisdom
Emotions as Messengers
At the centre of this approach is the understanding that the heart is our compass, always pointing toward what truly matters. Emotions, whether quiet or intense, are not problems to be solved, but messengers inviting us to realign with that direction.
Nature reminds us that life moves in cycles. Times to grow, to pause, and to let go. When we learn to listen to both the compass of the heart and the rhythm of these cycles, we begin to live in a more grounded, kind, and meaningful way.
Plant Medicine Integration
Bringing insight into life
Experiences with plant medicine can open powerful perspectives, emotions, and realizations. This space offers grounded, compassionate support to help you make sense of those experiences and gently integrate them into your everyday life.
Rather than chasing insight, we focus on how to relate to what has been seen and felt, and how to translate it into meaningful, values-based action that supports real and lasting change.

Acceptance & Commitment Therapy ​
​​Presence Begins with Acceptance​
​​At the heart of this approach is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). In simple words, ACT teaches us how to stop fighting with our thoughts and emotions, and instead notice them, make space for them, and choose actions guided by our values - our heart's desires of how we want to behave in everyday life. It is less about controlling the mind, and more about living fully, even with the ups and downs that come with being human. ​​​​​​​
ABOUT YOUR ACT THERAPIST
HELLO!
My name is Luciana Lopes and I’m the creator of Heart-Driven Healing, a space where psychology, mindfulness, and the wisdom of nature come together, with space to gently integrate plant medicine experiences into everyday life.
​My path did not begin in therapy rooms. It has been shaped by over 15 years of exploring the human mind, body, and spirit, working closely with individuals in deeply personal processes, and living across cultures while asking deeper questions about life. Along the way, I discovered the transformative power of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and how its principles naturally integrate with my understanding of presence and emotions as messengers.
​​
Much of my work today includes supporting people in integrating meaningful and often intense experiences, including those arising through plant medicine. Over time, I’ve come to see that change does not come from insight alone, but from how we relate to it and bring it into daily life with care and intention.
​​
By learning to open, stay present, and move toward what truly matters, we begin to create a life that feels meaningful and aligned. Through evidence-based tools, grounded guidance, and deep respect for the complexity of being human, I support you in making sense of your experiences and translating them into lasting change.
​
If you feel resonance, I’d be happy to get to know you and explore how I can support you. Let’s have a call. The first one is on me.
