About me
I hold a five-year degree in Psychology from PUC-Rio de Janeiro, I'm registered with the Brazilian Federal Council of Psychology and I'm currently completing a postgraduate specialization in Jungian Psychology at IJEP. My professional path combines clinical practice, research, and international experience, shaping a culturally sensitive approach to psychotherapy.
Since 2020, I have been working in clinical practice, grounded in Jungian analysis and the analytic tripod of personal analysis, supervision, and study. I place special value on creating an inclusive space for patients from diverse backgrounds, including LGBT+ individuals and people living nomadic or traveling lifestyles. My clinical work emphasizes respect, openness, and depth, attending to the symbolic dimensions of personal narratives.
I offer therapy in Portuguese, English, and French. My fluency in English was strengthened through an academic exchange in the UK, while my French developed through years of study, immersive language learning in Lyon, and professional experience with native speakers. I remain committed to continuous learning, regularly participating in study groups, supervision, and professional development opportunities.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
Clinical psychologyRecommended for those who need help with diagnosing and treating more complex mental health issues, often involving assessments and evidence-based treatments.
CounsellingRecommended for those who want to talk through their emotional challenges with a professional in a safe, supportive environment.
Jungian analysisRecommended for those interested in diving deep into their unconscious mind to better understand themselves and grow emotionally.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in Jungian analysis, with a focus on the unconscious as expressed through dreams, personal narratives, and fantasies. I view therapy as a collaborative process that supports symbolic understanding and personal transformation, always respecting the unique pace and needs of each individual.
