About

I'm so honored to be part of this directory of amazing Filipinx therapists. I believe in honoring our community's struggles, decolonizing our healing while also bridging the experience of growing up in the U.S. It's been a long road, but you're finally ready to take the leap into therapy. If you've been feeling overloaded by responsibilities, guilt, overwhelm, stress, and anxiety in your job or your relationships; if you're wondering why you feel so lost or stuck in your decisions; if you feel worried about losing your relationships or damaging them in some way because of how you feel inside: I 100% empathize with you and I can't wait to explore and overcome these struggles with you. Children of immigrants, perfectionists, over-givers, alpha daughters, gamers, and Insta/TikTok scrollers: we can have a life that we love. Let's work together to find your unique path.


We start with identifying your strengths as well as your barriers and obstacles. Using a combination of evidence-based therapeutic modalities (styles and skills), I provide a flexible space for you to feel your feelings in a safe space while finding your footing on solid ground with skills and tools you can take away from each session.

You have worked so hard to help others, to make everyone else feel better or take away their struggles; it's time for you to feel supported, held, and seen. I'm honored to be part of your journey, no matter how long we work together.
