Hi, I’m Taissa
I'm Taissa Carvalho, a Licensed Master Level Psychologist and the founder of The Healing Thread.
I believe therapy should be a place where you can show up as you are, without judgment, without having to have the right words, and without feeling like you need to become a different person before you're worthy of support.
My approach is warm, curious, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that understanding why we think, feel, and behave the way we do can create space for meaningful change.
Why The Healing Thread🧵🌿
Healing is rarely a straight line.
Our experiences, relationships, identities, fears, strengths, and ways of coping become woven together over time. Sometimes those threads help us survive. Sometimes we eventually realize that the patterns that once protected us are now keeping us stuck.
The Healing Thread was created as a space to gently explore those patterns, not simply asking “What's wrong?” but becoming curious about “What happened, what does this mean, and where do we go from here?”
Therapy isn't about becoming someone entirely new. Sometimes it's about understanding the threads that already make you who you are and intentionally deciding what you want to carry forward.
My Approach to Therapy
Integrative. Thoughtful. Tailored to you .
Therapy should fit the person, not require the person to fit the therapy. I draw from evidence-informed approaches while tailoring my work to the individual in front of me.
