Psychotherapist
We also embrace the natural uncomfortable feeling of undergoing therapy.
I am confident in my listening skills, empathy, humor, desire to learn from others, and being genuine. Our time together is meaningful and powerful. I create a non-judgemental and transparent space to grow. I have years of experience working with communities and helping clients thrive outside our clinic walls (virtual or physical) by utilizing and developing their personal and external resources. I support individuals and families through transitions and challenges involving relationships and communication. Managing our various moods and self-regulation is also one of my strengths. I have vast experience working with youth and families in different clinical settings. Among the diverse group, I also work with immigrants and refugees. Moving to a different culture can be difficult, and every help counts. I am here to help you increase wellness and find your priorities. I am an affirmative therapist, and you can be your true self in session. I can offer my services both in English and Portuguese.
I will help you become more aware of your feelings, thoughts, and actions and work towards integrating them so you can feel wholeheartedly in the world. Together, we will identify the limitations and the possibilities of your environment. That way, we know when/where to fight and when to redirect the energy somewhere else.
Self-exploration is a journey;
I would be honored to witness your growth.
