About My Clients
I offer individual counseling for children, teens, and adults who are struggling with a wide variety of mental health and behavioral issues such as trauma, multicultural issues, grief, anxiety, depression, self-harm, trauma, unhealthy coping skills, life transitions, and domestic violence/abuse. I am certified in TF-CBT and an LGBTQIA+ affirming counselor.
My Background and Approach
I graduated from the University of Texas at San Antonio with a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. My therapeutic approaches are that of Person-Centered therapy and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help individuals take effective steps toward positive behaviors, form healthy coping strategies, and recognize their own self-worth and potential. I have a passion for serving individuals of all ages who have survived trauma and other adverse life experiences. I prioritize creating a safe space for individuals to freely express their emotions. I am committed to building and maintaining a trustworthy therapeutic relationship to allow the individual to feel safe, supported, and comfortable.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am a Filipina counselor and a 1.5th-generation immigrant. Being raised in a multicultural community, I plan to understand the individual’s own perspective about their cultural upbringing and how it affects his/her life. My goal is for individuals to feel empowered as they create their own path toward healing and acceptance.
