I am a Psychotherapist and Registered Social Worker with a Master of Social Work at the University of Toronto, and MA in Psychology from Sao Paulo State University and a Ph.D. in Psychology from the University of Sao Paulo, Brazil. I have worked in hospitals with clients facing life-threatening illnesses, in mental health settings, and in private practice in Brazil. I provide compassionate care and a safe space for clients to express their emotions and feelings in their therapeutic journey.
My expertise includes coping with cancer, chronic illness, grief/bereavement, caregiver support, anxiety/depression, life transitions, separation/divorce, immigration, relationship issues. I offer sessions in English and Portuguese. As a Latin American immigrant from Brazil, I am aware of our challenges when moving to a different country.
I provide compassionate and empathic care and a safe space for clients to express their emotions and experiences in their therapeutic journey with me. I draw from evidence-based modalities to explore meaningful strategies to support you according to your needs through a collaborative process. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact me.
