I was born and raised in Brazil and pursued higher education in the United States by getting a bachelors degree in psychology and a masters in Mental Health Counseling. Having a fondness for depth psychology specifically C.G.Jung I later obtained two years of post graduate studies in Jungian Psychology with F.A.J.A.  I have been licensed in the State of Florida since 2001.

​

Throughout my years of practicing psychotherapy I have had experience with adults, adolescents and children, having worked with couples and families as well. It has enabled me to have a good understanding of interpersonal dynamics. I have acquired experience with trauma as well and have specialized in somatic practices to aid in trauma resolution such as Calatonia and EMDR.

 

I bring a multicultural perspective to my work that allows me to connect with people from diverse backgrounds in an open, receptive, and non-judgmental way. I am fluent in English, Portuguese, and Spanish, which gives me the privilege of serving clients in the language they feel most comfortable with.

 

Honesty and authenticity are core values in both my personal and professional life. I believe that in order to truly be present and effective as a therapist, I must remain committed to my own growth and self-awareness. This ongoing practice allows me to hold a mindful, compassionate, and respectful space for each client’s unique healing journey.
