About me
I have been providing therapy in treatment of anxiety, depression, anger/stress management, body image issues, coping skills, self-esteem, trauma, and cultural adaptation for the last 8 years in the US and previously in Brazil. I help adult clients of all ages, genders, sexual orientations, and cultures. I typically counsel in English; however, I can also accommodate Portuguese speakers.
As a therapist, I’m here to listen without judgment and to help you explore ways to find relief and hope. In our sessions, you’ll find a safe welcoming space where your feelings are respected and valued. Together, we’ll work through the layers of whatever is troubling you, uncovering tools and strengths you may not even realize you have. I work with clients to navigate their difficulties through evidence-based approaches like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), solution-focused, and person-centered therapy. My goal is empowering individuals to navigate life’s difficulties and achieve personal growth. I also provide therapy for clients navigating multicultural and communication issues.
