Topics I work with

Relationships

Conflict, jealousy, communication and decisions about the relationship.

In therapy, we look at how you communicate, what you expect from the relationship and what keeps repeating in conflicts, so you can make more conscious choices.

Emotional dependence

Difficulty setting boundaries and fear of being alone.

Learn more

We work on how you bond with others, the space you give your own needs and how to set boundaries without giving up affection.

Breakups

Dealing with the ending, missing someone and starting over.

A space to go through the grief of the relationship, understand what it left behind and rebuild your routine, your plans and the way you see yourself.

Self-esteem

Insecurity, comparison and the feeling of never being enough.

Learn more

We identify the thoughts that fuel self-criticism and gradually build a fairer, kinder way of seeing yourself.

Self-pressure

Perfectionism, guilt and the demand to handle everything.

Learn more

We understand where the constant pressure comes from and practice more realistic ways of dealing with goals, mistakes and limits.

Stress

Overload, exhaustion and difficulty slowing down.

About me

Hi, I’m Laura.

Licensed psychologist with a degree from PUC-Campinas and postgraduate specializations from PUC-RS in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and in Neuroscience, Education and Child Development. Over 3,000 sessions conducted, focusing on relationships and self-esteem, always with a welcoming approach and goals set together with you.

Learn more

I work with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which starts from a practical idea: what we think about a situation influences how we feel and act. In therapy, we identify these cycles together and try out new ways of thinking and acting in everyday life. It is an evidence-based, collaborative approach with clear goals.
