Mental Wellness

Human First, Therapist Second

You are searching for the right therapist to work with. In my practice, you are not just another client; I am genuinely curious about your unique process and just as invested in your journey. I aim to deliver the kind of care I’d want for my loved ones if they sought out guidance and support. My practice offers a dedicated space where individuals, couples, and families are guided through the different “seasons” of life. Whether it’s overcoming a recent crisis, life transitions, chronic mental health challenges, or navigating through complex relationships and/or family dynamics, I am at your service and here to support at every turn.

Drawing inspiration from Kintsugi, the Japanese art of mending broken ceramics with gold to craft unique masterpieces, my therapeutic philosophy similarly celebrates your imperfect yet remarkable journey. I believe in the power of redrafting, repairing and revitalizing your mental wellness to support your overall vitality. I aim to help you embrace your battle scars rather than seeing yourself or your life as “broken.” It’s not about letting past flaws or current weaknesses define you, but about acknowledging your inherent resilience.

In my therapy practice, I will recognize and address the unique cultural perspectives and values of Filipino and Asian individuals, including both positive and toxic aspects of their psychology. I will incorporate principles of Filipino psychology to promote healing and well-being, while also addressing toxic values that may contribute to mental health issues. Through culturally sensitive therapy, I will help individuals embrace their cultural identity and navigate the challenges of immigrant and bicultural upbringing.

“Compassion is not the relationship between the healer and the wounded. It’s a relationship between equals. Only when we know our own darkness well can we be present with the darkness of others. Compassion becomes real when we recognize our shared humanity.”

-Pema Chodron
