Registered Psychologist

Hello, my name is Juliana. I am a Registered Psychologist with a focus on assessments for both adults and children, including Autism and ADHD. As a certified play therapy, I work closely with children and parents.

My career in psychologist began over a decade ago in Brazil, where is worked with children as a Clinical Psychologist. In 2013, I immigrated to Canada to further my expertise, especially in play therapy, and to deepen my understanding of the unique challenges that immigrant families face. This experience has shaped my practice to incorporate a multicultural perspective, which I apply in my sessions to address cultural and social adjustments, racism, and related challenges that families may encounter.

I specialize in supporting children aged 4 to 12 who experience social, emotional, and behavioural difficulties such as anxiety, attachment issues, low self-esteem, ADHD, autism, oppositional behaviours, depression, OCD, and peer relationship challenges. My therapeutic approach is holistic, considering each child's physical, emotional, social, cultural, and cognitive well-being. I work collaboratively with parents and caregivers and other professionals to create tailored treatments plans that address the unique needs of the individual and family system. My goal is to provide compassionate, evidence-based care that empower children and families to thrive in all aspects of their lives.
