Great to meet you!

As a therapist, I prioritize building genuine relationships with my clients and creating a compassionate, non-judgmental environment where individuals feel comfortable embracing their authentic selves. My style is highly interactive and collaborative, rooted in the belief that therapy's transformative power emerges when both therapist and client invest time and effort into the healing process.

My approach to therapy

My style is highly interactive and collaborative, rooted in the belief that therapy's transformative power emerges when both therapist and client invest time and effort into the healing process. My approach integrates principles from somatic, psychodynamic, attachment-based therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), allowing me to tailor treatment to the unique needs of each client.

What you can expect from me

I offer both short-term and long-term psychotherapy to individuals, adolescents, couples, and families in English, Portuguese, and Spanish. I work with clients from diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds, crafting personalized treatment plans to meet their specific needs. Beyond symptom reduction, my clients often discover greater insights into their behavioral patterns and relationship styles.
