I look to provide you with a safe space to explore and heal.
Therapy works best when you feel understood and able to be honest. I offer a warm, engaged space where we can slow things down, make sense of what is happening, and look more closely at the patterns shaping your life. Along the way, I bring direct feedback, practical tools, and years of clinical experience to help you move toward greater clarity, connection, and choice.
My Therapeutic Work
Therapy with me is collaborative and engaged. I work especially well with people who value depth, honesty, and an active therapeutic relationship. I listen carefully, but I also offer perspective, ask direct questions and help you notice patterns that can be difficult to see on your own.
My approach brings together rigorous clinical training, years of experience and the intuition that develops through close attention to each person. I draw from relational, somatic, experiential, and evidence-informed approaches, adapting our work to what is most useful for you rather than relying on a single method.
Together we work to understand what is keeping you stuck and develop a clear, flexible way of responding to yourself, your relationships and the demands of your life.
Online therapy throughout California and Montana.
Sessions are provided online through a secure telehealth platform for adults and couples throughout California and Montana. Telehealth offers flexibility in scheduling and location while allowing us to engage fully in the therapeutic work.

My view of the world is wide open. I have a passion for learning and a curiosity for understanding the world of our inner lives. I draw from a bicultural and bilingual background (Brazilian/American) and in a previous life worked in government, business and international trade. I have experience being in stressful, fast pace environments and greatly understand the challenging nature of balancing work and life. My own inner-healing journey allows me to teach from a place of both experience and rigorous theoretical training. I have dedicated my life to this work because it is a calling. One I decided to answer!
