About My Clients
I am honored to be a part of your journey towards healing, growth, and empowerment. I strive to provide a safe, non-judgmental, and compassionate space for you to feel heard, understood, and achieve your goals. Originally from Brazil, I spent most of my childhood moving around. I have lived in Brazil, Venezuela, Peru, Argentina, and currently Texas. Due to this, I have a passion for working with the Latinx population. I am also able to provide therapy services in English, Spanish, and Portuguese
My Background and Approach
I have worked in a variety of settings, including non-profit agencies, the correctional system, schools, and currently private practice. I have training and experience helping people overcome trauma-related concerns, anxiety, and depression as well as supporting clients in improving their self-esteem and coping with life transitions. My approach to counseling is strengths-based, trauma-informed, and collaborative. I believe in the importance of providing individualized care depending on where you are at in your journey and where you want to be. I utilize different evidence-based modalities to support you in overcoming your current struggles. Some of these modalities include Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Exposure Therapy, Prolonged Exposure for trauma and PTSD, and mindfulness-based techniques.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
As an immigrant, multicultural, and Latinx Therapist I believe in the importance of being culturally competent and aware of the different aspects and intersections of clients’ identities.
