About
Bilingual, Culturally Sensitive, Trauma-informed, Relational Psychotherapy. I believe that engaging in therapy is an act of courage because change is by definition radical. An important goal of therapy is to connect to your authentic/creative self as a way to make meaning in times of suffering. Together we will explore your personal, family, cultural, and political history to understand the ways in which your experiences shape how you feel in the world. Whether you are struggling with life transitions, finding/keeping good relationships, or trying to integrate different identities, our work can help you find some sense of cohesion. I work with teens, adults and college/grad students with a special focus on immigrant/bicultural individuals. I collaborate with caregivers to ensure gains in therapy are translated into other contexts. Specialties include: anxiety/depression, trauma, immigration issues, postpartum depression/infertility, grief/loss, creative blocks and life transitions. I immigrated from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and has lived in Europe and the UK. I am fluent in Portuguese and English. Sliding scale offered depending on availability.
