As the Clinical Director and Co-founder of Family Phases Counseling Center, I have the privilege of working with individuals and couples dealing with hurts and patterns of behavior that prevent them from experiencing a greater intimacy and connection with others. I enjoy helping my clients find and experience new aspects of aliveness and resolve as they pursue deeper connectedness and intimacy.

In addition to my clinical training, I bring my life experience of 35 plus years of marriage and two grown children. Having grown up in Brazil, I am very familiar in dealing with multicultural dynamics and I am fluent in both English and Portuguese. I also have over 20 years experience in working with a large multinational organization. Over the years I have had the privilege of speaking to various groups locally and internationally.
