Hello, I’m Bruna, and I’m happy you’re here. Taking the first step toward your well-being is a courageous decision, and I want to acknowledge that you’ve already begun your journey. I have many years of experience working with individuals, families, children, and adolescents from diverse cultural backgrounds, helping them navigate a variety of life stressors and mental health challenges. My passion is guiding and empowering clients to develop coping strategies for emotions that impact their daily lives. I am continually inspired by my clients’ resilience and growth, and I would be honored to support you on your journey.
My approach is rooted in empathy, mutual respect, and collaboration. I utilize strength-based interventions along with evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), DBT, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). . I also provide advocacy, behavior management, skill-building in a nonjudgmental, supportive space.
A crucial component of our work together is building a strong therapeutic partnership—one founded on trust, commitment, and shared effort. My goal is for you to feel heard, understood, and empowered throughout the process as we work toward meaningful change.
