Education & Experience

Dr. Thais Uebelhor, formerly Thais Rabanea de Souza (also known as Thais Rabanea-Souza or Thais Rabanea), is an international mentor whose work is grounded in years of clinical practice, academic research, teaching, and public education in mental health. With a doctoral background, contributions to peer-reviewed journals and books, and extensive experience educating thousands through television, radio, podcasts, and other media, her early work explored how brain processes, emotional patterns, cognitive appraisal, and behavioral responses shape human experience and long-term well-being.

Over time, her path evolved beyond reducing distress to helping individuals flourish and live with meaning and fulfillment. Now based in Florida, she dedicates her work entirely to mentoring and life strategy, guiding people to intentionally design lives aligned with their values, strengths, and full potential. Informed by Positive Psychology and scientific insight, her approach fosters growth, resilience, and purposeful living.

Testimonials

My mentoring journey with Dr. Thais was, without a doubt, one of the most meaningful transformative experiences I have ever had. There is a rare combination of knowledge, sensitivity, and insight in her work that allows her to reach the essence of each issue with warmth, respect, and, at the same time, great clarity. Throughout the sessions, I learned to look at experiences that had previously caused me suffering from a new perspective. She has an admirable ability to guide us toward finding, even in the most difficult situations, what can be transformed into learning, strength, and growth. She helped me realize that, very often, the things that hurt us can also reveal important paths for our development and for discovering who we truly are. Her approach is extremely precise. There is such accuracy in the way she listens and in the way she intervenes that each session has depth and purpose. The results of this process went far beyond the sessions themselves. Today, I feel happier, more whole, more aware of who I am and of the choices I make. This transformation has also had a very significant impact on my professional life, bringing me greater confidence, fulfillment, success, and alignment with what truly makes sense to me. I wholeheartedly recommend her work, with deep admiration and gratitude, to anyone who wishes to go beyond simply overcoming difficulties, to anyone who wants to truly know themselves, find clarity, reframe their story, and discover a lighter and more joyful way of living.

I have worked with Dr. Thais for many years, and throughout this journey, she has become a truly important part of my life and personal growth. Her guidance has helped me welcome and understand different aspects of myself with greater compassion and without judgment. Over the years, I have learned to approach life with more lightness, regardless of the challenges it may bring, while also becoming more assertive, setting healthier boundaries, and feeling more confident in my own choices. Through her warmth, sensitivity, and thoughtful guidance, I have developed greater self-awareness, self-esteem, emotional security, and, above all, a deeper sense of self-love. I’m trully grateful for the positive and lasting impact she has had on my life.

My journey with Dr. Thais? Life changing!! How do I even begin to describe this journey? Well I was blessed to have met Dr. Thais at a time where my whole world was changing, where I could no longer make sense of my thoughts, feelings and abilities on my own. I felt at ease with her presence from the first moment I met her. After that first session, I left having a light at the end of the tunnel, my heart started to see peace. I say that Dr. Thais was born to help others. Her undivided attention while she observes your words, your feelings, your thoughts, makes you feel like you are special. I came to her lost, with my purpose in life, doubting my abilities and talents, not believing in my capabilities to overcome whatever was coming forth. Dr. Thais, with her “magical abilities“, planted many “seeds” of hope, of belief, the belief that I could do, anything my heart desired, because I already had it in me to fly high! To work with what I love, to take chances and believe me, she created a monster!!! Hehe. Today I feel like I am aligned with my purpose in life, I love and enjoy my everyday existence, I feel stronger than ever and all that is due to a journey along Dr. Thais. Thankful will never be enough to describe the effect of having had her in my life.

I remember when I first met Thais, and I was immediately drawn to the way she spoke, her kindness, and her genuine energy. I had my first session with her almost as a trial, but after that very first meeting, I immediately knew that I wanted to continue and commit to a deeper process with her. Working with Thais has been a transformative journey. She helped me look at my reality from a completely different perspective, understand my true value, and break through some of the limiting beliefs that had been holding me back for a long time. She helped me find clarity when I felt confused, and always encouraged me to trust myself and my own abilities. Over time, Thais became a precious support through some of the most difficult and challenging moments of my life. The process we went through together helped me develop a deeper understanding of myself, and my values. Looking back, I can truly see how much I have changed since our first session. It has been a long and meaningful journey, and I am deeply grateful for the support, guidance, and perspective Thais has given me along the way. I would definitely recommend working with her to anyone who feels ready to invest in themselves, grow, and create real change in their life.

I am 58 years old and a pediatrician specializing in Pediatric Intensive Care. My journey with Dr. Thais’s guidance has been a deeply transformative experience. Throughout this journey, I have had the opportunity to count on Dr. Thais during different stages of my life, especially during periods of significant personal and professional challenges and transformation. The work I have done with her has changed my life. Along the way, I was able to better understand patterns that had developed over time, rethink my choices, and cultivate a more conscious relationship with myself and with the circumstances life presented to me. In every conversation, I have recognized her profound expertise, sensitivity, and, above all, her ability to look beyond the surface and understand what was truly behind my difficulties. Her guidance went far beyond simply addressing the circumstances I was facing. She helped me see new possibilities and move forward with greater awareness, autonomy, and confidence. Today, I independently care for my 9-year-old son and continue my life with a much clearer perspective on who I am, what I value, and the person I aspire to become. In every one of our conversations, I have always felt the depth, sensitivity, and genuine care that Dr. Thais brings to her work. Having her by my side throughout this journey was undoubtedly fundamental, not only in helping me navigate important periods of my life, but also in rebuilding myself upon foundations that are more aligned with the person I aspire to be and the values I wish to pass on to my beloved son.

My experience with Thais has been meaningful and transformative. From the very beginning, I felt supported and, at the same time, guided to look at my personal and professional challenges from new perspectives. Throughout this process, I have developed greater confidence in myself and in my choices, while also gaining new insights and learnings that have contributed to my personal and professional growth. I admire Thais for her deep knowledge, combined with her sensitivity and respect for my story and my journey.
