Dar o primeiro passo para começar a fazer terapia já é desafiador… Agora imagine ter que falar em inglês enquanto sua mente pensa em português? Como traduzir coisas que só quem é brasileiro entende? Saudades, afeto, angústia… Viver em outro país traz muitos desafios. Aprendemos a nos reinventar, adaptar à outra cultura, e lidar com a saudade e às muitas transições. Tudo isso pode ser frustrante, muitas vezes causando ansiedade, isolamento, sensação de não pertencimento, e depressão. Estou aqui para apoiá-lo enquanto criamos um espaço seguro para você explorar sua jornada e seus objetivos.

Whether you are having a hard time sorting things out for yourself or communicating with your partner, coworkers or family members, I believe I can help you feel better and improve your relationships. Extensive training and experience in Clinical Psychology and Marriage and Family Therapy has given me the expertise to conduct psychotherapy both at an individual and at a relational level. Integrating the theoretical orientations most appropriate for solving particular issues, I generally achieve good results within a reasonably short time. I also specialize in issues of acculturation and cross-cultural interactions, both at work and in interpersonal relationships.

I believe we are relational beings, and health can be cultivated in intentional, honest, and reciprocal relationships that respect and reveal our inherent dignity. Relationships with others and ourselves hold great promise and power, they can also be the focus of our pain as we move through life. The therapeutic relationship we build together acts as a staging ground and microcosm to help you renew the relationships you have with yourself and others in life. To that end, I endeavor to help you see what may be driving you while also reflecting on what uniquely revealed in your relationships and looking to increase capacity for joy.

Therapy is about exploring, experimenting, discovering, and being vulnerable. In our therapy together you will learn to increase self-compassion and mindfulness, and your ability to sit with uncertainty and bear witness to uncomfortable feelings and body sensations. You will gain awareness of the role negative core beliefs and thoughts have upon mood and learn how to challenge those negative thought patterns. You will learn to set appropriate boundaries by asserting feelings, recognizing wants and needs, and identifying the role shame and guilt might play in causing unhealthy, harmful, stale, and inauthentic behaviors.

You may be an artist. You may be an academic. You may be an activist. I have been all three of these, and I speak their languages: of creativity, intellectual enlivenment, and social justice. And right now, in this time of upheaval and unrest, you may be hurting--feeling lost, adrift, burned out, under- or over-stimulated, or simply sad. I am here to connect with you. To listen compassionately. To make space for you to better hear yourself, and to encourage linkages, mentalizations, and trauma metabolizations that will allow you to better listen to the rhythms of your body and use your own mind. I offer you my mind in this pursuit.

I believe every human being has an innate capacity to heal and the internal wisdom to do so. However, they need tools and guidance to access those resources. That is why my clients and I co-create a space that is safe, trauma informed and tailored to their individual needs. In that container, we uncover their particular gifts, talents and wisdom as we heal wounds from trauma and we decrease symptoms of anxiety, depression and excessive stress. Clients learn tools that they can take with them for the rest of their lives, this way increasing their capacity for healing outside of therapy.

Em nossa primeira sessão juntos, lhe dou as boas-vindas ao meu consultorio e convido-o a torná-lo seu próprio espaço seguro. Eu explico que a terapia é um processo, um relacionamento e uma aventura. É também um presente de descoberta e renovação que só você pode dar a si mesmo. Nesse processo, meu papel é ouvir, apoiar, desafiar, guiar e celebrar você, à medida que você se torna mais corajoso para encarar as partes de si mesmo que estava evitando, aceitando mais a si mesmo e aos outros e sendo plenamente presente na sua vida.

Se você está aqui, imagino que está considerando encontrar um parceiro de jornada. Fico feliz por poder começar uma conversa com você e dar-lhe suporte durante este caminho. Há momentos em que podemos sentir que algo está errado, nos sentimos presos e experimentamos emoções que podem parecer impossíveis de lidar. Os rompimentos e transições da vida podem gerar emoções intensas tornando o dia-a-dia difícil de suportar. Estou aqui para apoiá-lo nas suas transições da vida e fases desafiadoras. Eu atendo famílias (ex: cuidador e filho), adultos e adolescentes em terapia individual.
