About me

Originally from Brazil, I have been living abroad for the past six years. As an English and Portuguese-speaking psychologist based in Rotterdam, I offer psychological support to the international community, both online and in person. With my personal and professional experience, I take a holistic approach to mental health, considering all aspects of your well-being—physical, social, spiritual, and more—along with your unique life experiences, culture, and beliefs. My focus goes beyond just symptoms; I strive to understand the full picture of what makes you, you.

My clients describe me as a dedicated and empathetic psychologist who makes a significant positive impact on their lives, helping them navigate challenges and achieve personal growth. I aim to be warm and compassionate while also motivating you to work on the changes you want for your life.

I work with clients facing anxiety, stress, burnout, relationship problems, procrastination, low self-esteem, expat life challenges, and more. I would be more than happy to help you address your concerns and build a better future.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
ACT: Acceptance and commitment therapyRecommended for those who want to stop fighting negative thoughts and learn how to live with more acceptance and focus on what really matters in life.
CBT: Cognitive behavioural therapyRecommended for those looking for practical support and accountability to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.

As a psychologist, I primarily use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). My goal is to guide you in regaining control over your life by learning new strategies to manage difficult thoughts, feelings, and emotions. I believe that all types of behavior, even the most dysfunctional ones, serve a purpose. My empathy and curiosity will help you view your experiences not as defective but in terms of their purpose and workability. Together, we’ll explore what’s preventing you from living your best life and develop evidence-based strategies to improve your overall well-being.
