I specialize in helping individuals who are looking to address experiences of trauma, anxiety, depression and more. I often work with professionals, creatives, athletes, parents and folks of color, creating a warm and welcoming space where you feel safe to process, release and heal. My therapeutic approach is relational, culturally sensitive, and client-centered and using my extensive expertise in Attachment Therapy, EMDR, Psychodynamic and Somatic Therapy to help you achieve your well-being goals. I'm a Columbia University trained therapist who has supported many individuals and organizations in becoming trauma-informed.
In therapy, we unravel the 'why' behind your actions and make sense of your past and present self. Whether you’ve run into relationship challenges, feel stuck, dissatisfied or wrestling with your mental health. We’ll embark on a journey of self-discovery, purpose and healing and address any obstacles that may be hindering you from reaching your goal.
Being a Brazilian American and mixed race, I deeply understand that the human experience is incredibly diverse and multifaceted. My personal and clinical experiences have led me to a profound understanding and reverence for the complexity of issues that bring people to therapy. Overall, it has given me an axis of relatability to support you in this journey.
