My journey into the field of counseling began with a simple yet profound desire: to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those who are struggling. Guided by this unwavering commitment to compassion and understanding. In today's fast-paced world, it's all too easy to become consumed by overwhelming worry and fear, perpetuating a cycle that entraps us in negative thought patterns. From the moment we wake up to the moment we lay our heads to rest, our minds are often inundated with anxious thoughts about the future, the past, and everything in between.

You’re a millennial or GenX mother raising an emotionally expressive, self-aware daughter, while carrying unresolved wounds of your own and realizing no one ever taught you how to hold space for your feelings. You may also be navigating a high-conflict relationship, where arguments escalate quickly, communication breaks down, and emotional safety feels hard to find. Between parenting, relationship stress, and your own healing, you’re exhausted. You want to parent differently. You want healthier relationships. And you want support that understands how layered and emotionally heavy this season of life can be without judgment or blame.

Therapy is a partnership, and we will work collaboratively to achieve your goals. I believe in providing a compassionate and nonjudgmental space for you to process and grow.

Systemic oppression impacts our lives in many ways, and I invite you to unpack those issues in our sessions. Note: My practice is currently 100% virtual.

I am a multicultural, binational (American Brazilian) psychologist licensed in New York and Texas. I'm committed to providing quality, individual psychotherapy in a mutually respectful relationship. I work with adults and young adults from all lifestyles and backgrounds who are experiencing long-term issues with depression and/or anxiety. My usual client has been using some coping skills and is now motivated to, gradually, process difficult thoughts, memories and emotions. With time, this process allows us to connect with a renewed sense of self, one that feels more unique, authentic, and is more naturally energetic and driven.
