Therapists in Los Angeles, CA

Eu acredito que pais são muito importantes e que educam seus filhos da melhor maneira possível dentro do grau de habilidade que eles têm. Algumas vezes existe uma disparidade entre o que os pais podem oferecer e as necessidades emocionais da criança. Meu foco principal no trabalho terapêutico com meus clientes é desenvolver um entendimento intuitivo dos talentos primários e também das áreas que não foram desenvolvidas por culpa das limitações no estilo pessoal dos pais. Nosso trabalho juntos poderá aumentar o entendimento geral do seu perfil psicológico e também facilitar a manifestação das suas potencialidades.

Você tem tido dificuldade com alguma situação e sofre com isso? Já tentou “tudo”, mas continua se sentindo sem saída e imerso em sofrimento psíquico, o qual pode se manifestar como isolamento, auto-crítica, desesperança, preocupação, medo, insatisfação, conflitos interpessoais, mudanças de humor, dissociação da realidade, sensação de perseguição, etc? Você tem se perguntado se algumas das dificuldades que você tem enfrentado - como, ser incapaz de agir ou repetidamente fazer escolhas erradas - podem dizer algo sobre seus dilemas subjetivos? Essa é a hora de fazer análise.

Therapy is about exploring, experimenting, discovering, and being vulnerable. In our therapy together you will learn to increase self-compassion and mindfulness, and your ability to sit with uncertainty and bear witness to uncomfortable feelings and body sensations. You will gain awareness of the role negative core beliefs and thoughts have upon mood and learn how to challenge those negative thought patterns. You will learn to set appropriate boundaries by asserting feelings, recognizing wants and needs, and identifying the role shame and guilt might play in causing unhealthy, harmful, stale, and inauthentic behaviors.

People come to see me for a wide variety of reasons, but almost always, they feel stuck in some way—whether from difficult or volatile relationships, overwhelming thoughts and emotions, addictions, or the effects of trauma. I work with adults of all ages, kids, and couples, to figure out what’s keeping them stuck and unhappy, and to help them in getting freed up to live life in new ways. As a psychoanalytic therapist, I can help you cultivate a more integrated and accepting awareness of the different parts of your life, yourself, and your present experience. Our work together would be unique, based on you as an individual.

To provide support through this new path with the objective that life will unfold with more joy and happiness.

We use to have hard times whenever faced by difficulties that challenge our ego. Most of the time, we tend to avoid coping with these challenges, or we do deal with them in destructive ways, mainly because of not having learned more assertive functional ways to take care of ourselves, relationships and circumstances in life. My approach is focused on promoting your insight about why you think, feel and react the ways you do, supporting you to take advantage of your own potentials, improve skills and guiding you on taking good care of your core needs and expectations.

I am an Attachment Therapist. My therapeutic approach is collaborative, interactive and individualized. I work together with clients assisting them to reach personal fulfillment, healthy and rewarding relationships, and empowerment. We accomplish this by overcoming longstanding obstacles, such as, negative thoughts, behaviors or emotions. Emotional limitations and fears are explored and conquered through insight and mindfulness, leading to clarity of understanding your path for personal growth. Insight opens the path to conquer obstacles, the way for cognitive behavioral changes, helps you achieve balance, reach your full potential and live a healthier life filled with joy and a sense of freedom.

Hello and Seja bem-vindo! I grew up in Brazil and moved to California to pursue my career as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.

I approach therapy from the perspective that we all have inner wisdom, courage, and resilience. Sometimes, however, these strengths are blocked, forgotten, or have been inaccessible to you. I encourage you to become compassionately curious about yourself so that you can develop insight into these block and plans of action to overcome them. I work from a "strength-based" perspective which encourages you to focus and hone in on your strengths, while carefully and objectively addressing and confronting the factors keeping you from living a full, authentic, peaceful, inspired, and empowered life.
