Originally from Brazil, I have lived in Australia for over a decade and bring a strong multicultural perspective to my work. My personal life, including building a cross-cultural relationship and raising a family, has shaped how I understand communication, identity, connection, and the complexities of relationships over time. These lived experiences complement my professional training and enhance my capacity to work with individuals and couples in a thoughtful, empathetic, and realistic way.

Today, my counselling practice brings all of this together. I work with individuals and couples navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, communication difficulties, and personal growth. I have a particular interest in supporting couples and families through major life changes, such as becoming parents, adjusting to new roles, and reorganising daily routines.

Many of the people I work with experience high mental load, ongoing overwhelm, and the pressure of trying to hold everything together. Drawing on my background in leadership and systems thinking, I support clients in creating more functional households and healthier relationships, through practical structures, shared routines, and realistic strategies that reduce stress and strengthen connection.

My approach is collaborative, reflective, and practical, grounded in real life rather than ideals of perfection, and focused on creating more functional and intentional ways of relating, both to themselves and to others.

I believe meaningful change begins with understanding. When people feel heard, supported, and safe to explore what lies beneath their patterns, new possibilities naturally emerge. My role is to walk alongside you in this process, offering guidance, clarity, and structured support at a pace that feels right for you.
