About
We all come from diverse backgrounds and life stages, each with our own unique struggles and aspirations. Whether we are grappling with anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive thoughts and behaviors, relationship difficulties, life transitions, or other challenges, psychotherapy can provide invaluable support in a confidential and non-judgmental space. It is my belief that every person has the inherent capacity for growth and resilience, and therapy serves as a catalyst for unlocking that potential.
I prioritize building a strong therapeutic relationship based on trust and collaboration. By establishing this foundation, I aim to create an environment where clients feel comfortable opening up and engaging in self-exploration. The goal is to provide support in clients’ personal journeys, empowering them to navigate life’s challenges, improve their well-being, and cultivate fulfilling and meaningful lives.
If you are considering therapy or have any questions about the process, I am here to provide information and support. Together, we can embark on a journey of self-discovery, growth, and healing.
Born in Portugal, I am a fully bilingual therapist and offer services in English and Portuguese.
