Vancouver, BC V6G
I am a Registered Clinical Counselor (RCC-BCACC) based in Vancouver, BC, Canada. I am also a psychologist in Brazil registered with CRP RJ with more than 17 years of experience. I have a PhD in Psychology (UFF Brazil) in which I researched how to improve the care midwives provide to women, newborns and families. I am also a certified maternal mental health service provider with Postpartum Support International - PSI, USA.
I have received in my private practice people who suffer and want to live differently. I have worked with individuals, couples, families and groups dealing with challenges related to immigration, life transition, depression (also postpartum depression), anxiety, panic, addiction, compulsive and obsessive disorders, shame, trauma and workplace concerns.
I offer counselling based on talk therapy, which is fundamental in building trust between the client and psychotherapist. Psychotherapy is a way of taking care of yourself, and we will work together, so you can build a unique and rewarding life and becoming the protagonist of your existence. Contact me for a 15-min free session.

Our time specializes in creating absences: of the meaning of living in society, of the very meaning of life experience. This generates a great deal of intolerance towards those who are still capable of experiencing the pleasure of being alive, of dancing, of singing. and it's full of small constellations of people around the world who dance, sing, make it rain.
