About Me

This clinical psychologist works with adults, adolescents, and children, offering a welcoming space online and in person. She guides clients through sensitive listening to develop effective strategies. This collaborative process promotes mental health, well-being, and self-knowledge. Her approach suits those seeking a supportive environment to understand themselves. It helps them find practical ways forward.

Approach

In sessions I balance close listening with practical exploration, helping you notice patterns and try small shifts that feel manageable. We meet in Curitiba or by video, in Portuguese or Spanish, and pace work to what feels safe for adolescents, adults and children. Typical meetings mix reflection, brief check-ins and focused tasks between sessions so anxiety, grief, relationship strains and self‑esteem concerns become clearer and more workable. People seeking thoughtful, steady support often find this way of working helpful.
