Do you wake up in the morning feeling empty, tired, and unmotivated? Are you struggling with issues related to your past, uncontrollable thoughts, anger, grief, communication, anxiety, or major life changes? Are you seeking a more loving, meaningful, and harmonious relationship with your partner and your loved ones but don't know how or what to do to improve it? There comes a time when help is needed from a licensed professional.
You are unique and so are our sessions. I specialized in trauma work, depressive symptoms, anxiety, grief, and issues that negatively impact our lives. My goal is to help you to heal your emotional wounds and guide you in your journey. I use an integrative holistic approach and often incorporate deep breathing meditation and mindfulness in my sessions.
We cannot pour from an empty cup. Take care of yourself first. Whenever you are ready, I will be happy to meet you where you are at your own time. Build your support team and let's work together and we will find the best way to improve your daily life and meet your personal goals. I speak Portuguese & Spanish.
