Luiza

“As a compassionate, trauma‑informed therapist, my aim is to help people move from overwhelm to resilience. What matters to me is connection, care and making a difference. I’ll support you to feel steadier and more connected to yourself.”

Therapeutic Approach

I blend evidence‑based methods, such as guided imagery, eye movement processing, and meditation, to ease distress and build lasting coping skills. In sessions, we’ll gently uncover what’s holding you back, practice tools that restore calm, and create new perspectives that support lasting change.
