Drawing on his expertise in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), and Rapid Resolution Therapy (RRT), Mario helps people to overcome their emotional and psychological challenges, and achieve a greater sense of well-being.

Born in Brazil, Mario brings a multicultural perspective to his work, which enables him to connect with people from diverse backgrounds. When he is not helping his clients, he enjoys spending quality time with his family and engaging in outdoor activities, such as mountain biking and stand up paddleboarding.

Chief Barketing Officer
Susie is a furry ball of joy that brings love and happiness to all those around her. She is the office mascot, and as soon as you step through the door, she welcomes you with wags and barks, making you feel like the most important person in the world.
Susie has a special gift that she shares with everyone she meets: snuggling. When you sit down on the sofa, she will curl up next to you and nuzzle her head into your lap, inviting you to stroke her soft fur. It’s impossible not to feel a sense of calm and contentment when you’re in her company.
If you’re lucky enough to be on the receiving end of one of Susie’s loving kisses, you’ll know just how special she is. Her affectionate nature is infectious, and you can’t help but feel loved when she’s around.
Susie isn’t just a cuddly companion. She’s also a hard worker who knows how to earn her keep. Her specialty is earning treats, and she’s a pro at it. With her big brown eyes and wagging tail, she’ll do whatever it takes to win your heart and that tasty treat you have in your hand.
Susie is more than just a dog; she’s a part of the clinical team (and don’t worry, she’s attended a few graduate school classes with her mom), Her presence brings joy to everyone in the office, and her loving personality is a reminder of the simple pleasures in life.
