My clinical interests include behavioral problems, depression, anxiety, ADHD, and family conflict. Another area of interest for me is psychological testing where I have gained a tremendous amount of experience helping families address their children's emotional, academic, and behavioral problems. Being a native from Brazil and coming to the United States as an immigrant, I understand the challenges of living in a different country.

Congratulations! You have taken the first step into healing! Life is a constant learning experience to adapt to different cultures, situations, social groups and roles. Sometimes we may need somebody's insight, validation and support when walking in unknown territory. Whether the reason for seeking therapy is trauma, mental health issues or life changes, I believe we are all capable of resolving our own issues as long as there is awareness, understanding and willingness to face those challenges.

I am a dedicated and experienced licensed psychotherapist offering in-person and telehealth services to adolescents and adults at my office in the Ironbound in Newark, NJ. I am fluent in English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Galego and provide a culturally-sensitive and inclusive therapeutic environment tailored to meet the unique needs of my diverse clients. I have a strong background as a high school teacher in Newark Public Schools and have developed a deep understanding and connection with adolescents and teenagers, fostering trust and open communication.

I am from Brazil where I received a clinical psychologist license in 1998 (Brazilian Psychology Board). I understand the importance of cultural sensitivity in establishing trust and comfort to achieve a successful treatment. Besides fluent English, I speak Spanish and Portuguese. My professional training and education, allows me to combine a psychoanalytical vision with cognitive-behavioral interventions in a sensitive and non judgmental style. I utilize sense of humor to guide clients through insights; I am very dynamic and make use of analogies to help clients visualize their problems in a more concrete and manageable way.

After getting an Associate Degree in Photography from CCSF, I realized that I was passionate about Human Behavior and the difference it makes for someone to feel like they matter.

My passion is working with children, families, and couples. I specialize in working with parents struggling with their child's behaviors, and families and couples seeking greater harmony. I have over a decade of experience working with adoption-related issues, trauma, and fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, all of which impact behavior, family dynamics, and parent-child relationships. In addition, I specialize in working with prenatal and postnatal mood changes to help new mothers feel connected to their babies and those around them. I believe that connection with others is essential to our mental health.

I believe that intervention is one of the most effective ways to help someone suffering from alcoholism, substance abuse, eating disorders or other process addictions, such as gambling, internet, or sex addiction. I have been fortunate to have an amazing success rate and, in certain circumstances, will refund fees if the intervention is unsuccessful after a level III family meeting. Intervention is necessary in cases of addictive behaviors because the addiction cannot survive without denial and delusion of the consequences of the individual's actions and behaviors. It is a life changing, life affirming event for all concerned.

Our philosophy is to promote various aspects of health based on the strengths of each individual by thoughtfully acknowledging each person's unique talents and abilities. I have 20 years of experience in working with adolescents and adults with mental health problems, dual disorders, and substance abuse issues. For the past 16 years, I have directly worked with adults who had these problems. I offer mental health counseling for dual disorders, substance abuse, addictive behaviors (i.e., food, gambling, technology), the impact of family members' addiction, adult children of addicts (i.e., ACOAs), codependency, and more.
