“I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”

Maya Angelou

There’s a longing to make sense of your past, relationships, and understand more why you do the things you do. Whether you’ve run into relationship challenges, stuck in the grind, or wrestling with a feeling of dissatisfaction and restlessness. As Professionals of Color, there are unique layers to our histories, experiences and challenges we face.

Together we’ll discover how family, cultural, racial and/or religious trauma has impacted who you are today, and integrate connection and power back to you.

Welcome!

I specialize in working with individuals and groups who seek to address experiences of trauma, anxiety, depression and more. Professionals of color, creatives, athletes, and fathers are clients that I often walk alongside in therapy.

My approach is relational and client-centered, using EMDR, Psychodynamic, Culturally Sensitive Therapy, and Mindfulness as primary tools in achieving my clients goals for wellness.

For the last 8 years, I have offered integrative, specialized trauma and attachment based therapy. I have extensive training and practice in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), Somatic-based and Psychodynamic Psychotherapy. I'm a Columbia University trained therapist who have supported individuals and organizations in becoming trauma-informed.

As a Brazilian American, I believe that the human experience entails holding together the multiplicity of self which requires a safe, non-judgmental space where we can work towards healing and growth. My personal and clinical experiences have led me to a deep understanding and reverence for the complexity of issues that bring folks to therapy.
