About My Clients

My ideal client is anyone seeking a supportive partner to navigate life’s complexities. I work with adults, adolescents, and couples facing challenges such as trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, identity struggles, ADHD/executive function issues, or relationship conflicts. I strive to create a safe, culturally sensitive space where you feel heard, valued, and empowered. Whether you're seeking clarity, growth, or healing, I’m here to tailor our work together to meet your unique needs and goals.

My Background and Approach

My practice is rooted in a person-centered approach, offering unconditional positive regard, genuine warmth, and cultural sensitivity to create a safe and judgment-free space for exploration and growth. I specialize in helping adults, adolescents, and couples navigate challenges such as trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, ADHD/executive function issues, family conflict, and relationship concerns. Drawing from psychodynamic, strengths-based, cognitive-behavioral, and multicultural frameworks, I tailor every therapeutic relationship to meet the specific needs of each client. As a second-generation Filipino-American, I understand the nuances of navigating blended cultural identities and the impact of stigma around mental health. My previous career in business and technology enhances my ability to support clients managing career challenges. By connecting my experiences to your needs, I aim to foster resilience, self-discovery, and the tools to create the fulfilling life you envision.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
