ABOUT ME

I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist and Psychotherapist (PUC-RJ), Mental Health Specialist (IPP-RJ) and Master in Public Health (IMS-UERJ) currently living and working in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
I have been working in the clinical, mental health and organizational fields for over 25 years.
In the clinical field, I worked in the Public Health System of Rio de Janeiro in Psychiatric Hospitals, Psychosocial Care Centers, Psychosocial Rehabilitation Projects with users of the mental health system and training health professionals.
In the past 11 years, I have also been working as an intercultural corporate consultant, supporting Brazilian and foreign expatriates and their families in the process of adapting to work and life in a new culture.
Over that time, I have served hundreds of professionals and families of different nationalities, created assessment and development tools and provided services to more than 50 global companies from several industries.
I worked and studied both in Brazil and in the USA, and I am fascinated by working with different people and cultures. Multiculturalism and difference are the foundation of my personal history, as a daughter and granddaughter of immigrants, as well as a core aspect of how my professional identity has been built.
I provide services in Portuguese, English and Spanish
