Hi, I'm Winter. I offer my clients a warm, safe environment to explore and grow together. My goal is to support you and help work through whatever has brought you to therapy.
I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the State of Nevada. I graduated with my Master of Science in Marriage, Family, and Child Counseling in 2009 and hold three degrees in the field of counseling/psychology. I am within several classes of achieving a second Master's degree in the field of substance abuse treatment. I have additional formal and practical training in the areas of trauma informed care, impulse control/anger management, crisis intervention, and cognitive behavioral modification strategies. I have worked with a wide variety of populations including co-occurring disorders (substance and mental health), at risk youth, and various other adult high risk/high need populations in both intensive inpatient and outpatient settings. Throughout my years of experience, I have worked at length with the majority of DSM V diagnosed disorders.
I have 20 years of experience in mental health nursing and 5 years as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with people from all walks of life, supporting them through challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and other mental health concerns.
I have over 25 years of experience in the mental health field. Originally from Brazil, I worked as a social worker for 15 years before relocating to the United States to pursue my master’s degree.
For the past five years, I have worked in school settings supporting children and adolescents as a school-based mental health professional. During this time, I have completed extensive training in areas including family systems, trauma, autism, ADHD, grief, learning disabilities, and behavioral crisis interventions.
I am a passionate advocate for the well-being and safety of children and families, and I am committed to providing compassionate, culturally responsive support.
