I am often contacted by people who have moved to a new country or city, perhaps because I myself have been a migrant since 2018, when I left Brazil. On the other hand, I have patients who have never lived anywhere other than their hometown. In both cases, people often seek a sense of belonging - something we seem to be struggling with when we decide to see a psychologist. Sometimes the world changes around us or within us, and we may fear losing precious things: loved ones, cherished places, our time, our sanity, or even ourselves. It can be hard to picture our place in the world when so much changes and feels overwhelming.
As a psychologist and psychoanalyst, I provide the space and time to approach and name feelings, associate thoughts in new ways, and figure out different approaches to life. I specialize in issues related to migration/expatriation, relationships and sexuality, and have extensive experience with anxiety, depression, burnout, and other mental health concerns.
I have also experienced how challenging life can be and how difficult it is to have conflicting feelings about people, places, relationships, and our own decisions. Having support can make all the difference - so, when you feel it's time, please reach out.

We all have many different parts, we might come from different places, and we can have a lot of different feelings at once. Therapy is an opportunity to explore our own complexity and try to make things at least a little bit easier. My patients often face symptoms of anxiety, depression, burnout, challenges of living abroad or relationship issues - and most notice change after just a few sessions.

My work is shaped by each person's unique story. I don't simply follow a method — we reflect together, giving space for feelings, contradictions, and discovery. I'm rooted in psychoanalysis, but that doesn't mean we'll only focus on the past, sexuality, or family history — it means I'll be listening for the unconscious, for what you may not yet know about yourself.
