​

I am an Integrative counsellor registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and a member of the British Psychological Society (BPS).

​

I grew up in a place where talking about feelings, setting boundaries and communicating was not normalised. Twelve years ago, I found myself moving towards breaking this cycle and studying Psychology and Counselling to understand the myriad of emotions, behaviours, and thoughts in my life. Since embarking on this journey, I have learned how I could best access and honour my inner-self and how to best relate with others.

​

I have worked with people from different backgrounds facing different experiences in a vast and diverse country, Brazil. Since 2018, I have worked with some of the most vulnerable people in the UK, survivors of human trafficking and refugees.

​

From this work, I've explored that healing happens more effectively when the social, cultural, physical, spiritual and emotional dimensions of life are considered.

​

My approach to therapy is considering the relationship between body&mind and interactively considering aspects of your life using talk therapy, somatic techniques, tailored psychological interventions and energetic approach. I see therapy as a process that goes beyond wanting to solve a problem. Therapy is about freedom to embrace your authentic self, understand your limits, emotions and how to relate to the environment and have a life with more awareness and autonomy.

​

As a therapist, I believe that everyone has the power to heal and grow from within themselves when compassion and safety are present in therapy.
