Getting to know Tania Guimaraes

Hello! I am Tania Guimaraes, a Psychotherapist in practice for the past 32 years. I am natural from Brazil, living in the USA since the mid 70's. I started my career in Social work, focused on Child Protective Services. I grew very interested in the studies of: Traumatic Separation and of Losses associated to Depression. I moved towards working with children and families, focusing on reunification. I grew very curious and interested in internal and external influences on the integration and consolidation of the becoming an adult. I was happy to find out that the growing process is dynamic and ongoing always. I arrived at such perception as I completed training in Psychoanalysis. I then complemented the training with skills in Cognitive and Gestalt Therapy training. One can say that I have blended what feels best from each of these approaches. I now enjoy working with individual adults and couples. I work well with persons trying to cope with: Anxiety. Depression. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Bipolar Disorders. I am not the best worker for those who are actively addicted and using substance. I do work well with such individuals once they are already committed to recovery and in specific treatment to address addiction. I am very well versed in exploring aspects of relationships and their role in my clients value system. My basic guiding principle is to engage my clients in the most intimacy possible with the self. I mean that how the client constructed perceptions of experiences will inform us about desires and ideals. We will acquire and grow clarity as to any aspect that limits achievement of fulfillment. I honor and celebrate all identities. I value diversity of experiences and backgrounds, historical and cultural. I look forward to meeting you.
