Approach
With a Master's degree in Social Psychology and a deep-rooted passion for analytical psychology, also known as Jungian Psychology or Complex Psychology, I bring a holistic approach to therapy. My journey into psychology has been enriched by my prior experience in Human Resources and Executive Coaching, providing me with insights into the complexities of the corporate world and personal development dynamics.
My therapeutic approach is rooted in Jungian Psychology, a theory I personally experienced as transformative during my own therapy journey. This approach allows me to honor the uniqueness of each individual, embracing the beauty of human complexity. I believe in a gentle, caring approach to therapy, where the client's journey towards healing is met with understanding, empathy, and respect.
I have a particular interest in early childhood trauma and its profound impact on adult lives. Drawing from my expertise, I integrate insights from neuroscience and trauma research to inform my practice, ensuring that clients receive comprehensive and evidence-based support.
As an expatriate myself, I understand the challenges of adaptation, loneliness, and cultural adjustment. My multicultural background enables me to empathize with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds, facilitating a deeper connection and understanding.
I am fluent in Brazilian Portuguese and English. I recognize the importance of offering therapy in one's native language, and I am committed to providing a comfortable and inclusive therapeutic environment.
I offer a complimentary initial session to give you the opportunity to experience my approach and determine if we're a good fit. You can easily schedule your free 50 minute session by reaching out via the link in my profile. Your journey towards healing and personal growth starts here, and I'm here to support you every step of the way.
