Great to meet you!

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) dedicated to helping individuals heal, grow, and reconnect with their sense of self. My work is grounded in a trauma-informed approach, and I specialize in supporting clients who are navigating the effects of past experiences, relationship challenges, and emotional overwhelm.

Originally from Brazil and now practicing in the United States, I bring a culturally sensitive perspective to my work and understand the complexities of identity, transition, and belonging. I have a particular passion for working with women, especially those recovering from relational trauma, abuse, or difficult life transitions.

My approach to therapy

I am a certified EMDR therapist, and I often use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) alongside other evidence-based approaches like DBT, mindfulness, Junguian to help clients process trauma in a safe and structured way. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered to move forward at your own pace.

What you can expect from me

My style is warm, collaborative, and direct. I believe therapy should not only help you understand your experiences, but also give you practical tools to create meaningful change in your life. Whether you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply looking for deeper self-understanding, I’m here to support you in building a life that feels more grounded, authentic, and fulfilling.
