I’m Leticia, originally from Brazil, and I’ve proudly called New Zealand home since 2017.

I believe that integrating mental and physical health is key to creating lasting, positive change. With my background in psychology and health coaching, my approach is holistic and person-centered. I combine evidence-based counseling techniques with practical lifestyle strategies to help clients achieve meaningful, lasting change. My goal is to empower clients to build resilience, manage stress, and improve their overall mental and emotional well-being.

I specialise in working with individuals facing a range of challenges, including:

• Wellbeing and Lifestyle Changes: Sustainable lifestyle adjustments, stress management, and building resilience.
• Burnout and Career Challenges: Support for those experiencing workplace stress, perfectionism, and high standards.
• Emotional and Mental Health: Guidance for managing anxiety, stress, grief, and life transitions.

I believe in small, meaningful changes that lead to significant transformations. Whether through brief interventions or longer-term support, I tailor my approach to meet each client’s unique needs and goals.

With over 15 years of experience in corporate settings, I am dedicated to helping individuals and organizations achieve their goals. In my Human Resources roles, I focused on mental health and well-being, developing initiatives to foster a positive, supportive environment, and providing confidential support for employees navigating life’s challenges.

Now, in private practice, I work closely with clients to help them overcome obstacles, build resilience, and achieve meaningful personal growth.

I am a Professional Member the New Zealand Association of Counsellors (NZAC), Health Coaches Australia and New Zealand (HCANZA) and Brazilian Association of Psychology (CRP 04/25333).
