Personally 

I strongly feel that mental health care can and should be available to all of us as one of many different personal care practices. This personal care is, of course, very specific to each and everyone. It targets the mind and the behaviors.

Professional background

I am a Brazilian psychologist with a background in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Psychoanalysis (Freud-Lacan). In both I have had clinical practice and personally experienced treatment. I have a master's degree in CBT from Utrecht University (The Netherlands) and a specialization in Psychoanalysis from Caxias do Sul University (Brazil).

Ever since I immigrated to The Netherlands in 2017 I have helped hundreds of people who came from a variety of countries. I understand first hand the struggles people go through when trying to settle in a new country. I have been able to get them through difficult times including grief, relationship struggles, anxiety symptoms, depressive symptoms, problems at work and a lack of motivation.
