Introduction

I work with individuals, couples, and groups navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, and difficult seasons of life. I believe your experiences, culture, identity, and personal story all matter. My goal is to understand the whole person—not just the struggle—and create a space where healing feels personal, meaningful, and true to you. I began my clinical career as a licensed psychologist in Brazil in 2021 and am now working toward independent clinical licensure (LCSW) in Tennessee. While I am currently pre-licensed in Tennessee, I bring several years of professional clinical experience. My approach is warm, genuine, and supportive, while also helping you take meaningful steps toward change. I draw from CBT, ACT, and DBT to tailor therapy to your needs and goals. As a bilingual therapist, I also offer Portuguese-speaking and bicultural clients a space where they can express themselves fully and feel truly understood.
