Obrigado por tirar um momento para olhar o meu perfil. Eu sou um terapeuta que oferece atendimento principalmente à população que tem mais dificuldade no acesso aos serviços de saúde. Refiro-me às pessoas que residem em pequenas cidades e zonas rurais; a população que possui aversão ao sistema de saúde por anteriormente ter enfrentado barreiras e preconceitos; e também à população que muitas vezes encontra dificuldades para acessar o próprio sistema, como as comunidades imigrantes e de refugiados.

Do you judge yourself harshly? Do you feel that you're never good enough? Do you think you are responsible for the way another person feels or behaves? Do you focus outside yourself for love or security? Are you constantly seeking approval and affirmation? Change takes a lot of hard work and effort, but it is possible, and with the right type of counselling, you can get what you want from life. Together we will create a safe space where I will help you discover what's blocking your growth, heal old wounds, and change old patterns that no longer serve you.

Olá! I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) in British Columbia with a doctoral degree in Counselling and Psychotherapy, and I previously worked as a psychologist in Brazil.

If you're living with anxiety, low self-esteem, disordered eating, addiction, or the daily challenges of ADHD, Autism or disabilities, you might have spent years just surviving, quietly wondering if there's another way to live. You are not broken! No matter what you've been told, or have told yourself, you are worthy of feeling well. I believe every person is born with an inner drive toward a meaningful life. Over time, life has a way of quieting that voice, but therapy can help you feel safe and reconnect with your unique self.

You may be feeling weighed down by stories that don’t feel like your own—stories shaped by past experiences, outside expectations, or traumatic experiences. This can leave you feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward. You want to feel more grounded, authentic, and able to create a life that truly reflects who you are.
