**Accepting new clients** My interest is in working with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders, trauma, self-harm, grief/loss, self-esteem/body image issues, gender identity and LGBTQIA+ issues, women's mental health issues, and life transitions. I am also skilled in working with caregivers of older adults and helping them navigate the emotional challenges and changes that come with caring for an aging parent or loved one. I also have experience working with older adults and understand the challenges and experiences that come with aging. I am also a board approved clinical supervisor.

Life can be stressful! It takes courage to ask for help, but the personal rewards in doing so can be very fulfilling.

Therapy can lead you to greater self-awareness, self-esteem, and most importantly, a more satisfying life.

I am a licensed psychologist with years of experience working with men and women of all ages: adolescents, adults, and seniors. I work with people struggling with major life challenges, such as substance abuse, trauma, behavior problems, and personal crises. I also work with people who need some help getting through a difficult time, or who are interested in better understanding themselves, and improving the quality of their lives and relationships. My approach is supportive and insight-oriented, while keeping a focus on the choices that you are making that may impact your situation.

I have practiced psychotherapy for over 30 years. I draw on a number of contemporary theories to guide my work with clients. But when I am with clients, I wear my theories lightly, as I listen carefully and work to develop a deepening trust. As we explore the problems and distresses that have brought you to therapy, we will work together to deepen our understanding of the difficulties you are experiencing. As we work, we will construct a richer and more interrelated autobiography. One's story is oneself, and therapy can help to make self and story more whole. This can be profoundly healing and freeing.

Currently accepting patients for Telehealth sessions and remote EMDR. I've been blessed to be able to work in this field for over the last 23 years, 13 as a psychotherapist. Over that time I've been able to work with a myriad amount of problems, ranging from anxiety, depression, substance abuse, ADHD in both adults and children, as well as work with families in distress. I personally take great enjoyment in working with people with anxiety based difficulties, having had the greatest success with this population. I am now opening my work to include more people that have had traumas, big and small.

Experiencing loss and significant life changes, in addition to the broader issues that we’re all dealing with and trying to make sense of, can be overwhelming. You might feel like you’re stuck somewhere and you’re alone. With a warm, non-judgemental presence, I can help you recognize the many ways in which you are free and able to live a life that brings peace and fulfillment.

*Accepting new clients* Over the past year the way we go about our day to day lives has changed drastically. This has led to an increase in stress, anxiety, depression and feeling overwhelmed for many of us. Children and young adults have been hit especially hard as they have had to miss out on cultural milestones and important lessons in face to face peer interactions that would typically happen at school. These changes have impacted the mental health of so many of us. My goal is to help kids/teens/young adults adjust to these changes and to life changes such as graduating high school and weighing pro's and cons of college.

There comes a time when all of us need help finding the path forward. Sometimes we need a "reality check." Sometimes we just need someone to listen without judgment. Regardless of what therapist you decide on, you deserve nothing less than the latest treatment models backed by rigorous research. For years, I have helped clients from all walks of life bringing a wide range of challenges, including difficulties with productivity, impulsivity, extreme mood changes, anxiety, family/relationship problems, and more. I treat adults, couples, and families, and maintain a safe space to openly discuss gender identity and sexual orientation.

I became a therapist after many years working for public and private schools. I focused on special education and students with emotional and behavioral issues. I often work with families and individuals who have become stuck or have practiced habits that are negatively impacting their lives. I focus on a cognitive based approach to treat anxiety and depression. If you are stuck and need support with finding a new approach then therapy may be for you.

For over 40 years I have had the honor of playing a key role in helping people transform their lives. As an integral part of life's journey, we are all on some kind of path to find meaning and purpose. When we find our right path and honor it, we experience life as rich and fulfilling. It's when individuals come to an awareness that they are not on the right path and that their attempts to make things better have become part of the problem that they are more ready to consider working with a therapist or coach.

I am a school and community based therapist in Maryland with about five years experience. My pronouns are she/her. I have worked with clients with a range of concerns that include, but are not limited to depression, ADHD, parenting issues, family conflict, behavioral disorders and self esteem issues. My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in providing safe spaces for anyone being treated by addressing what the client and/or parent is best for them. My approach is person-centered and strengths-based. I also provide a combination of rational-emotive and cognitive behavioral therapy. I applaud you for taking the step!

Being fully seen and fully accepted by one’s life partner is a universal human need, the stuff of spirituality - an experience felt in the soul, not just the mind or the heart. Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) provides a roadmap for how to get there. All of us show up to adult relationships with baggage, echoes of times we felt unsafe in prior relationships. After a decade serving adults individually, I have pivoted to focus on helping couples work through the internal barriers that prevent them from feeling as close to their partners as they deserve to feel. The healing power of secure attachment inspires me; I believe in it.

**Limited availability for new telehealth clients** My work with individuals addresses emotional regulation, relational difficulties, anxiety management, life transitions, and self-esteem. My work with parents of young children aims to address stress management, responding to specific behavioral concerns, increasing effective communication, and improving the parent-child dynamic.

** Not accepting new clients at this time. ** Severe past and present trauma, anxiety/panic, anger, and depression are some of the issues that I have assisted folks I work with to process, navigate, and/or overcome. I have experience serving numerous populations in Baltimore City as a social worker providing mental health treatment, as a community organizer, and as an advocate for harm-reductive public health initiatives. I often work with social justice advocates, people who struggle with feelings of "otherness," and folks who have experienced sexual assault, intimate partner violence, and other severe traumas.

I've worked with adults, children and families for over 30 years. I believe therapy is a shared journey, where we build on your strengths. We'll develop a safe place for you, as you re-discover lost aspects of yourself. Life is tough and having non judgemental support of an understanding therapist, can help with sensitive areas. I work with trauma issues, helping people move through traumatic experiences so they have fulfilling relationships and joy in life. I'm accepting new clients, depending on your availabilty.

Lately, there is the push to "always be on!" Whether it's to be the best on your job, earning your next degree, or just the daily push to be present, there is an urgency to the pulse of our city. This urgency is often met with life circumstances that are sometimes beyond our control. Transitions, career changes, decisions to be a caretaker or the difficulties of being 30+ and single, life can sometimes be rough and you might need a little moving forward. I see my work is to be a thought partner with you as you identify personal strengths, areas of growth, and insight in how to live "a rich life!"

My therapeutic approach is to work with you identifying your potential and the factors that maybe preventing you from achieving your goals. Together we will find and tailor the best therapeutic intervention to assist you.I also offer supervision for LGPCs and for LCPCs. I have 41 years of clinical experience initially as a physician and psychiatrist in Brazil, my birth country, and subsequently as a psychotherapist in the United States.
