I'm a genuine and caring psychologist who uses a multicultural approach to treat trauma recovery, identity development, and role formation.

I'm a bilingual (English & Portuguese) licensed clinical psychologist who provides individual teletherapy services for adult women. I specialize in women’s health psychology to support trauma recovery, mood stability, coping with anxiety, resolution of identity issues, complex medical diagnoses, and reproductive health (i.e., pregnancy, postpartum, fertility issues). I use a multicultural psychological approaches to support trauma recovery, identity development, and exploration of role formation. Additionally, I'm trained to work with issues of sexuality, gender, and marginalized identity, and she has developed a specialty area in supporting the LGBTQ+ and Latinx communities. I integrate therapeutic modalities including CBT, CPT, IFS, and Narrative Therapy to provide each person in my care a flexible and supportive treatment plan. In her free time, Dr. DeOliveira loves to travel, dance, read, and compete in cycling challenges. She lives in Arizona with her partner of 18+ years where they enjoy adventures and quality time with their 2 rescue cats and 3 rescue pups. She also volunteers for a local dog rescue as a foster dog mom.
