About Anais
Life often brings challenges, from daily stressors to more complex struggles. I have experience in helping clients navigate trauma and anxiety, including generalized anxiety, social anxiety, health anxiety, panic disorder, and PTSD. Additionally, I support clients through stressful life transitions, work-life balance, self-esteem, and relationship issues. Together, we’ll create a safe space to explore your unique experiences and develop effective strategies to address these challenges. My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and grounded in evidence-based practices, ensuring that our work is tailored to your needs.
Originally from Brazil, I spent my childhood moving frequently and have lived in Brazil, Venezuela, Peru, Argentina, Austin, Seattle, and now Portland. These experiences have given me a deep appreciation for the ways culture shapes our identities and life experiences. I have a particular passion for supporting the Latinx community by providing culturally affirming therapy, while also enjoying working with individuals from diverse backgrounds.
Life can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face it alone. If you're ready to explore how we can work together to create a more fulfilling and balanced life, reach out today to schedule your free initial consultation. I look forward to connecting with you!
Seeing clients virtually from Texas, Washington and Oregon.

You may seem OK on the outside, but on the inside, your mind rarely slows down. There is constant mental noise: second-guessing yourself and others, constant “what ifs?”, fear of failure, or thoughts that feel intrusive and hard to dismiss. Anxiety can be subtle or overwhelming, but over time it begins to dictate choices, routines, and even your sense of self. Left unchecked, it becomes exhausting, convincing, and relentless. I specialize in treating anxiety, including OCD. Using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we focus on changing your relationship with anxiety and other uncomfortable feelings. That might mean gradually addressing avoidance tendencies, reducing compulsions, building tolerance for uncertainty, or changing how you respond to intrusive thoughts. My approach is active, practical, and collaborative. We don’t just analyze feelings - we work with them directly. I also enjoy working with ADHD, especially when anxiety and executive functioning challenges overlap. When things always feel harder than they “should” be, we focus on reducing shame, building sustainable systems, and increasing consistency. Over time, you can learn to build real trust in your ability to handle what’s in front of you. My approach blends evidence-based treatment with warmth, humor, and a clear plan. Anxiety is part of being human, but with the right support, you can build the skills to live life on your terms. I offer free 20-minute phone consults for our initial introduction to each other. Appointment slots generally offered Monday-Thursday from 11:00 to 4:00.
