"He knows not his own strength who hath not met adversity"- Samuel Johnson

We all face challenges in our lives. I am here to help you face those challenges with a non- judgemental , empathetic approach. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida. I have experience in grief counseling, family therapy, individual and group therapy. I have worked with children and adolescents. I can help parents address the issues they may be experiencing with their children. These would include defiance, bullying, peer pressure and grades. Additionally I have worked with diverse populations struggling with anxiety, depression, domestic abuse and relationship issues. I am multicultural. I am an American that grew up in South America. I have personal experience with different cultures and the impact that culture can have on our lives and relationships. I am bilingual speaking both Portuguese and English fluently.

My counseling approach leans toward Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. However I consider myself more of an Eclectic therapist. This allows me to tailor the methods being used to best fit your needs. I am passionate about my work. I strongly believe in treating my clients with respect and compassion. If you are ready for change I am ready to help you and support you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
