Are you tired of repeating the same arguments with someone you love, leaving you feeling alone and misunderstood? Maybe one person pushes to be heard while the other shuts down. Perhaps this pattern follows you from one relationship to another, making it difficult to talk openly about affection, trust, sex, or intimacy. I help individuals, couples, and families slow things down and understand what’s happening underneath conflict. Together, we explore the emotional patterns and protective reactions that keep you stuck—often learned earlier in life as ways to cope—and begin creating more honest, connected ways of relating. I offer a warm, empathetic space where you will be supported and challenged to reflect, grow, and take responsibility for what you can change. Originally from Portugal, I appreciate how culture and family shape our need for connection and belonging. I provide telehealth in English, Spanish, and Portuguese and offer LGBTQ+ affirming care that welcomes diverse relationship structures. You do not need to have everything figured out before reaching out. We can begin with what hurts, what matters, and what you hope can change. I am a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT #165233), employed by Reclaiming Eros and supervised by Rylee Sulzer, PsyD, LMFT.
