I am one of a HANDFUL of Filipina American therapists based in Houston, the fourth largest and most diverse city in the nation. I am trilingual in English and the Filipino dialects: Tagalog and Cebuano. I have a unique understanding of the bicultural/immigrant experience, being an immigrant myself. I believe everyone has an innate need to feel seen and valued. This is my goal in my practice: that the person sitting in front of me knows their value and provide a safe space to process the jagged edges of life. I want to ensure that the goals clients have in therapy are met and to empower them to face the other side of my office door.

Hello! Welcome to the first step of therapy - reaching out for support. I am an experienced clinician with 20 years of service in the field. Throughout my career I have counseled children, adolescents, and adults from various backgrounds and cultures. I specialize in several areas including anxiety, depression, grief, stress, self-esteem, and relationship issues, amongst others. I use an eclectic blend of therapeutic modalities, including cognitive behavior therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused treatment.

Since 2003, I have specialized in counseling women struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, grief, burnout, relationships, faith and other life adjustments. I offer a compassionate and action-oriented approach to therapy. Clients are empowered with insights and practical tools for genuine transformation. I am also a corporate speaker on mental health topics to Fortune 500 companies through Modern Health.

Life and relationships can have us feeling overwhelmed. Sometimes fear, communication and relationship conflict arise, and we wonder how to handle it or what tools can help us. Some keys to managing these concerns are: insight on what changes need to be made, what resources are available, what tools are available and how they are used. Going through tough times in life can already be challenging but going through them alone can be scary and confusing. Take comfort in knowing you do not have to go through alone. We work with clients to provide tools for change and a space to be authentical you. We service clients in TX and FL.

Are you feeling overwhelmed when your child starts throwing fits and melting down? Are you feeling frustrated that you have tried several ways to help your child, but it's still not working? Is your child struggling with anxiety, ADHD, trauma, or other emotional and behavioral problems? My goal is to help your child learn how to control themselves and to help you with strategies to support your child and family.

Drawing on a desire to help people overcome obstacles in their personal relationships, my professional work involves counseling individuals and families in order to achieve conflict resolution and better communication. As a neutral third party, I am better able to identify the challenges my patients face and facilitate positive change. Working with families, it is essential to foster a high level of trust between the therapist and family members. Mutual respect and open communication are essential to the therapeutic process. Engaging patients at their level, I help people find the change that they desire and the strength within themselves to achieve that change.
