About me

me_edited_edited.jpg

Serving patients since 2007

From a young age, I knew I wanted to have a career that made a difference in people's lives. I am a psychotherapist passionate about helping people find emotional balance.

With extensive experience in the area, in Brazil and France, my goal is to provide a safe and welcoming environment for my patients to explore their emotions and overcome challenges. For me, each patient is unique, with their own needs, which is why I am committed to everyone's process, respecting each person's time.

I'm here to help you find your path to a more balanced and healthy life.
