Therapy in Portuguese and English, in Orlando and online across Florida.
I work with Brazilian adults and couples living in the United States. A space to talk, in your own language, about what weighs on you: anxiety, adjusting to a new country, relationships and missing home.

Who I work with
- Adults who moved to the U.S. and feel the weight of adjusting
- Couples living between two cultures
- People who prefer therapy in Portuguese, even after years here
- Anyone dealing with anxiety, work stress or grief far from family
How I work
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a research-based approach focused on the present and on practical steps. Sessions last 50 minutes and usually start weekly.
In person in Orlando
An office in Lake Nona, Orlando, Florida. The full address comes with your appointment confirmation.
Online
By secure video, for anyone located in Florida.
My license is from Florida, so I see clients online only when they are in Florida at the time of the session.
Fees and insurance
Individual session: $150. Couples session: $180. (Fictional fees.)
I don't work directly with insurance (out-of-network). I can give you a superbill, a detailed receipt you can send to your plan to ask for reimbursement, if your plan covers it.
Good Faith Estimate: if you pay without insurance, you have the right to a written estimate of the cost before we start (No Surprises Act).
- 50-minute sessions
- Florida license
- Superbill for reimbursement
- Online across Florida
About me
I'm Helena, a Brazilian therapist. I studied Psychology in Brazil and earned my Mental Health Counselor license in Florida. I also live far from home, and I know how that shows up in sleep, in the body and in relationships.

FAQ
Is therapy really in Portuguese?
Yes, fully in Portuguese. I also see clients in English.
Do you see clients outside Florida?
Online, only clients who are in Florida at the time of the session, because my license is from Florida.
Do you take insurance?
Not directly. I provide a superbill so you can ask your plan for reimbursement.
Is what I say confidential?
Yes. Everything said in session is confidential, with the exceptions set by law, which I explain in the first session.
