About
Hello, name is Barbara D'Souza (she, her, hers)I have experience working with clients ages 3-65. I am willing to involve family any members and collaborate with others. My experience as a Board Member of the MN Department Board of Education involved development of best practices in understanding challenges faced by students. We promoted educational systems that used creative approaches to mitigate challenges faced by students I also sat on the MN Board of Education - EBD Leadership Committee. We strove to ensure all children in the state had access to individualized learning. I developed best practices in managing behavioral issues.
Most of all I believes in hope in all cases. No matter how difficult the journey, there is always hope that things can get better. The key to successful counseling services are the relationship with the therapist. The client(s)’s must summon the courage learn about themselves, and the barriers to goal achievement, and fulfilling their full potential.

As a woman of color, I have a unique perspective on the challenges for being a person of color who at times experiences marginalization, disparities in access to resources needed in daily life.
