Barbara Guimaraes, LMSW

Clinical Social Worker/Therapist, LMSW

Barbara Guimaraes is a Licensed Master Social Worker and nervous system–informed coach who creates guided practices for emotional regulation, grounding, and real-life moments of overwhelm. Her work is rooted in the understanding that insight alone is not always enough, and that the body often needs support to catch up. She specializes in helping people navigate anxiety, overthinking, and emotional intensity by offering simple, accessible tools that can be used in the moment, not just after the fact. Her approach blends mindfulness, somatic awareness, and gentle self-compassion, making her meditations feel both practical and deeply supportive. Barbara’s work is especially for those who are used to holding it all together on the outside but feel activated, overwhelmed, or stuck on the inside. Her guided audios are designed to help listeners slow down, reconnect with their bodies, and move through difficult moments with more steadiness and self-trust.
