My ideal client is someone who is hurt, hopeless, lost or just overwhelmed with life’s demands and wants to look inside and work on one’s own potential. As a neurodivergent myself, I know how hard life can be when we are not supported and understood as we should. A good client is the one who is searching for answers, confused, betrayed. Everybody needs help sometimes, healing and growing can be challenging, but if you feel the fire inside of you, this is the time. I am fluent in English, Portuguese and Spanish.
More than 20 years in the field, I’m certified in EMDR, specialty in trauma-therapy, I carry a multicultural background, and I’m a LGBTQ+ ally. I use DBT, mindfulness and have a psychoanalytical basis. Anxiety, depression, and crisis are my thing.
With MIND FULL I wanted to be able to create a tangible guide to regulate anxiety and give using practical tools. With UNBREAKABLE MIND I wanted give to the people the techniques to overcome obstacles showing my own journey as an alone immigrant in a unknown land. Those books are made for you the young professional, the single mother, the student who is struggling with decisions… they were made for people like you and me that go throughout situations without lose the hope and to show that the power is already inside you.
Hi, I just want to say that you’re worthy, you’re not alone, you deserve good things in your life, and what happened to you does not define who you are. I’m here to provide you with guidance, support, respect and professionalism. I’m eager to work together and see you flourish. Let’s go!
