About

It feels so tough to accept that you're only human and you might be struggling to reach your goals or with dealing with tough changes, even with the work and effort you've been putting in to yourself. Despite going through your day-to-day with life and work, it's been intense and sometimes feels like you're still on autopilot. You can see how your experience with past trauma has affected you. You've been working on yourself, and you're looking for a deeper way to address your pain. You're ready to take the next step to continue supporting your self-growth and change journey. If this resonates with you- you're in the right place! I value creating a safe, affirming, and authentic environment in sessions, as a human and as a clinician. I am a Certified Brainspotting Practitioner and utilize this wonderful approach to help folks process through trauma, relieve anxiety, and shift away from "stuckness." I speak Portuguese and English fluently, and moderate Spanish. I believe in the power of the person, in the interplay between the body and mind, and in the sanctity of the client-counselor relationship. I also believe that therapy is damn hard and respect your dedication to working on yourself. I welcome you to come as you are and will work diligently with you to engage in deeper self-exploration.
