Thank you for your interest in my therapy/counseling practice. It is often a very difficult decision to finally decide to go to therapy. What can be even more daunting is to find a therapist that is a good fit for you. My approach is easy going and interactive which I have found most clients appreciate. I specialize in working with adults, couples, families and teens. I am co founder of Greater Portland DBT which is a consortium of DBT therapists offering Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to adults and teens.

We all experience challenges during our everyday lives. Sometimes these challenges can seem overwhelming and discouraging. I work with people who want to make changes in their lives to help themselves overcome these difficult experiences. These changes can often be difficult to contemplate, yet alone act on. I strive to create a supportive environment for my clients where they can explore their concerns and the emotions that arise.

My work is about hearing and holding stories, guiding others towards a deeper connection with their unique experiences and the meaning attached to them. As we tell our stories, the meaning can change, and in turn, we may change our experience. Integrating intuition and evidence-based practices, I see my role as a mirror and guide, helping you to identify patterns and stories that might limit experiences of deep self-worth, authentic expression, healthy relating, and overall wellness. I understand that not all stories are easy to tell, and I take great care to create a therapeutic space of safety so that you can reach your goals.

As a psychotherapist, I believe in human interactions as a powerful healing tool. I have been working as a therapist for 30 + years, having started my practice in Brazil, my country of origin, and practicing in the US since 2020. My work is based in Psychodynamic, Jungian Analytical Psychology, and I also provide trauma-informed care using EMDR as a therapeutic tool. My approach is mostly eclectic, meeting the client where they are at, and using evidence-based resources tailored to the client's needs. I see the human life as a journey, full of wonders and hardships, and I feel honored helping someone throughout their unique journey.

As a clinical psychologist, my goal is to earn your trust and build a safe, affirming relationship within which we work collaboratively toward your goals. I firmly believe that the relationship we build is itself a healing tool, independent of any specific intervention we use to address your concerns. I bring a transparent, consistent-yet-flexible, and partnership-based approach to treatment. Accurate diagnosis is important, but you are more than a diagnostic label or list of symptoms. I strive to know you as the whole and complex person you are.

November 2024 - I am accepting new clients! I'm in-network with MaineCare and many other insurance plans. My speciality is working with depression, grief and burnout. I work well with clients experiencing common symptoms of each - persistent sadness, low motivation, general anxiety about all things, difficulty concentrating, irritability in relationships, among others. I also specialize in bringing together spirituality and therapy. My work as a therapist grew out of my own profound, extended season of grief and depression. My passion is supporting people on their journey.

I have been a student of psychology, the mind, and human behavior for over 30 years. My patients and clients have been my primary teachers, sharing with me the hard-won wisdom of their direct experiences. Helping them navigate their challenges has enriched my own life and taught me a range of strategies and perspectives that may also help you. I do not treat disorders, I treat whole individuals. I help some clients to identify and remove themselves from patterns that keep them stuck and that keep them from living as fully as they would wish. I help other clients learn to carry heavy burdens differently.
