“If you cant find ‘you’ outside,
the ‘you’ inside gets lost.
this spectrum of ‘lost you’
creates a resemblance shadow
that lives in the gap.”
Many times we feel stuck without knowing why and how. Stucknness manifests in many different ways (e.g. depression, anxiety, lack of creativity, excessive worry fears or sadness, among others), and seeing a psychotherapist may help with understanding and managing your struggles.
I am a psychoanalytic-oriented clinician. In my private practice, I see children and adults, both in psychotherapy and in psychoanalysis. I am Brazilian, and offer sessions both in English and Portuguese. I also offer workshops, consultation, supervision and teach throughout the Bay Area. My specialties are creative and writing blocks, immigration or acculturation struggles, parenting and early childhood difficulties. Please, contact me for more information or to schedule a session.
About
I have always been intrigued by the struggles we face when trying to navigate the complexities that life entails in order to find our own authentic and creative voice. In my clinical work, I hope to help my patients re-connect with unknown aspects of their emotional experience and become more creative, flexible and playful.
Take Action
I see people who struggle with depression and anxiety; work stress; relationship conflict and loss; life transitions; immigration and acculturation difficulties; creative and writing blocks; early childhood emotional struggles; parenting, including pregnancy and postpartum adjustments; family planing and fertility issues.
