Welcome, Bem Vindo, Bienvenido! I'm a native Brazilian offering sessions in English, Portuguese, or Spanglish. I fell in love with San Diego in 1996 where I eventually established my practice. I have conducted over 20 thousand therapy sessions, and over 1 thousand Psych Assessments. I am thrilled to share a culturally sensitive and unique therapeutic approach and will be an active participant in our sessions. And yes, that means, together, we will likely laugh, cry, discuss relationships, worries, fears, and/or self sabotaging but all in an effort to help you move forward into the person you know that you know you can be.
I enjoy working with adults and teens; specializing in anxiety, panic attacks, and cultural id. I have experience helping navigate work, family, and intimate (including LGBTQ+) relationships. We can work on adjusting to unexpected life-changes, PTSD, depression, OCD, grief etc. My background includes EMDR, EFT, CBT, yungian apr.and 4 years as a career coach.
If this sounds like the right partnership for you. Please contact me via the information on this page. I look forward to to talking with you and helping achieve your goals.
