I support people going through a range of challenges across the lifespan. My areas of interest are parenting, couples counselling, family trauma and relationship issues. I have worked for many years in hospitals, different substance misuse organisations and private practice. I find what works for each individual and tailor my approach accordingly. I have specialised in existential -phenomenology and psychodynamic as well as schema interventions. I see therapy as a collaborative dialogue which will foster a safe environment to achieve greater understanding and awareness of one's life and interpersonal difficulties.
I have worked as a psychologist for over 16 years and two different countries. I hold a doctorate in Existential Counselling Psychology and Psychotherapy. I offer therapy in English and Portuguese. I am based at the Family and Trauma Centre in Caufield North as well as in private practice on St Kilda Rd Melbourne.
I work with families, adolescents, children and individuals who are seeking a safe space , online or face to face to understand themselves in the context of their lives and relationships. I like to help people become unstuck and move forward in life.
