Hi, thank you for visiting. After 20 years as a therapist, I have found that people need a combination of support, insight, and challenging interactions to help them move past obstacles they are facing. I work with individuals on the most intimate aspects of their lives, including their sexuality, relationships, and life and death issues. My style is interactive and relational, and employs uncovering family of origin dynamics, but also more practical, EMDR and Brainspotting methods to help make changes more quickly. My specialty is in all aspects of loss and grief, addictions, eating disorders, relationships, trauma and cancer.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am originally from Brazil from a Portuguese family and I've lived in 3 different continents giving me a vast multi-cultural experience. I acquired a diversity of theoretical approaches required for solid counseling skills for couples and individual's therapy.
My specialty is in all aspects of trauma, loss and grief, addictions, eating disorders, relationships and cancer. I do a 30 min free phone or in person consultation so we can get to know each other. Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions. Looking forward to working with you.
