I provide psychological services for adolescents, adults, and couples, helping clients navigate a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma recovery, and family conflict. I specialize in guiding individuals through major life transitions, including the shift to independent adulthood, and working with those who struggle with self-invalidating thought patterns, relationship difficulties, and distress management. Additionally, I have expertise in supporting individuals facing multicultural challenges, multiple cultural transitions, and family separation.
My approach is compassionate, evidence-based, and tailored to each client’s unique needs. I work collaboratively with clients to help them navigate current stressors, gain insight into how past experiences shape present emotions and behaviors, and develop practical skills that they can apply beyond our sessions.
Having lived and studied in Asia and the U.S., I bring a multicultural perspective to my practice. I have provided professional services in diverse settings, working with various age groups across two continents and in two languages, English and Tagalog. I also have extensive experience in career counseling and college application preparation.
