Who i am and what i do

I graduated as a psychologist from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ) in 2006. During my first years at the Department of Applied Psychology at the UFRJ, my practice had Winnicott's psychoanalysis as its theoretical reference, while I also participated in undergraduate research in the field of psychoanalytic theory at the university.

Shortly before moving to Berlin in 2010, I was introduced to mindfulness practices, which I continue to explore and use in my work.

Since 2014, I've been working with adolescents and families at the European School in Berlin, and I'm currently specialising in systemic therapy at the Systemisches Institut für Achtsamkeit (SIA, Berlin). I was awarded the title of Heilpraktiker für Psychotherapie by the Berlin Health Authority in 2023.

I have spoken at various institutions on the topic of " lgbtqia+ identities in education", and my work on this topic won first place in the fair@school competition run by the German Federal Anti-Discrimination Agency in 2017.

In addition, my forays into the arts (music, performance and dramaturgy) have given me a distinctive sensitivity and listening ability.

Deep Relational Therapy

My practice is based on discourse - although it also includes body language, feelings and sensations - and I try to be curious about what led you to where you are now and what you have already tried to resolve your conflict. I like to function as an empathic sounding board for my clients to get to better questions and narratives about themselves.

Adding mindfulness to a mix of psychoanalysis and systemic therapy creates an integrative approach that addresses the unconscious mind, relational dynamics, and present-moment awareness

In this integrative framework, psychoanalysis would help uncover unconscious patterns and early experiences influencing behavior, systemic therapy would explore how these patterns manifest in relationships and social contexts, and mindfulness would promote present-focused awareness and emotional regulation. Clients learn to observe their thoughts, feelings, and relational interactions non-judgmentally, gaining deeper insight into both their internal world and how they engage with others, while also developing tools for managing stress and enhancing well-being.
