As an immigrant from Brasil, I understand firsthand cross-cultural issues so I can help people who are having difficulties adapting to a new country. I use evidence-based psychological interventions, especially Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) a modern behavior therapy that uses acceptance and mindfulness interventions in combination with commitment and behavioral change strategies to help clients build more vital, purposeful, and meaningful lives. As my client, you can expect a supportive and interactive therapeutic relationship. Sensibility, empathy, and sense of humor are my clinical strengths. Whatever your reasons for coming to therapy, my goal is to support you in your journey. I am an engaged and dynamic therapist and I will help you to navigate your feelings, build better skills, and relate to your thoughts differently so you can live the life you want. I value creating a compassionate and non-judgmental environment where you can feel safe to make changes.
