Portuguese Therapists in Cranberry Township, PA

I am committed to guiding individuals toward inspired changes in a safe place without judgment. For over twenty years I've helped individuals with anxiety, depression, personality concerns, and relationship concerns. Each of us has unique needs, but can find new mindfulness and empowering self-awareness. Mindfulness can be a state of liberating awareness and also an active practice. It can promote psychological flexibility, a return to the present moment and the resolving of complex trauma-related problems. In the words of Clarice Lispector, "Life is for anyone who is brave enough to risk and humble enough to learn."

Self-exploration can be challenging yet liberating. Learning who we are and who we are meant to become is rewarding for ourselves and others. Mental health needs to be a priority. I will help you begin self-examination by creating a safe space and strong therapeutic relationship. I can help you access feelings and thoughts so you can rediscover the joy and learn the benefits of healthy communication and boundaries. You will know your rhythm and feel more confident applying the developed tools.

I believe that it is really important for a person to feel that someone truly hears and understands them. My approach is to create a space where you can feel safe, valued, and understood. From that place, we work together at helping you explore the life you want to live, including understanding and changing the obstacles that are getting in the way of your sense of self fulfillment and relatedness to others and the world.

I have 15 years of experience in the mental health field. I have worked in a number of different settings and with clients from a wide variety of backgrounds and cultures. My priority is to meet the client where he or she is and help him or her by providing support, aid and guidance, so the client can work through processing the past, identifying present patterns and taking steps toward long lasting changes while addressing the client’s fears, challenges and worries along the way.
