Ana Carolina Bellino

My communication style

I practice active listening and a non-judgmental approach, giving you opportunities to reflect on your experiences. I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive environment. If we're working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm, patient, and compassionate.

My journey to mental healthcare

My therapy journey began with a desire to help others find strength through life’s hardest challenges. I had the opportunity to come to the United States from Brazil to start college. During grad school, I went to India with the University of South Florida for fieldwork and research, as well as to meet with survivors of trauma.

My goals for you

I believe that therapy is a partnership. Together, we’ll identify and set goals that matter to you, whether they focus on improving relationships, building self-esteem, or another personal objective. As we work together, your goals may evolve as you gain new insights.

Our first session

Our first session will be an opportunity for us to get to know one another. We’ll discuss your background and what brings you to therapy. Therapy is a process, and we’ll continue to build our work together over time. It’s completely normal to feel nervous about your first appointment.
