My ideal clients are young women struggling with relationships, self esteem, and body image. If they grew up in a manipulative, abusive, or enmeshed environment, they might find themselves taking on perfectionistic or caretaking behaviors. They might also be experiencing a “quarter life crisis,” exploring a new career path, or unpacking how family dynamics have impacted them. My vision is for clients to put themselves first, live by their values, and understand their needs. In our work together, we’ll get clear on how your past has influenced your present so you can build a life that aligns with what’s most important to you.

I am an Indigenous (Laguna Pueblo) and Filipina therapist working with clients with histories of trauma, grief and loss, and establishing and growing healthy relationships. When you work with me, I allow you to set the tone of our therapy journey. Together, we explore what is the concern bringing you in and how you’d like it to be different in the future. Once we know where we’ve come from and where we are going, we can explore how we get there.

The collective grief of the pandemic has left us facing anxiety and pain we may have already been managing before, but it's now magnified by the loss of so much of what we remember having. Emerging feelings can include grief, depression, relationship issues, parenting stress, and even anger. This can leave us feeling isolated and alone as we struggle to wade through the difficulties of our new every day.

How can we make deeper changes when we are trying to manage unusual pain, or are just handling our day-to-day suffering? When we feel safe and accepted as we are, we can challenge ourselves to grow, and to encounter others in an authentic way. I aim to create, with you, a safe place where we get to know your habitual patterns of behaving and relating, and explore less familiar sides of you that may offer surprising possibilities for thinking, feeling, relating and living. How can deepening awareness enliven, balance, support, un-stick, sustain or change your life? Let's find out!

Do you feel uneasy, tense, or unsafe in your own body? Trapped by your own thoughts and emotions, or a nagging feeling or muscular tension that seem unrelated to your emotional state? I know that feeling; that sensation that we try to ignore but just won’t go away. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, the stress of everyday life or the aftermath of trauma, your body is the container that holds it all—thoughts, feelings, sensations—all our lived experiences that make us who we are. Some of these experiences can help us thrive, feel safe and connected and some can make us feel stuck, uncertain, and reactive.

As a clinician, the therapeutic process is only meaningful and complete with the reciprocity and engagement of those I work with. Each individual is unique and their stories are interwoven with a rich tapestry of diverse emotions. By balancing the abstract, creative, philosophical, and introspective aspects of life with friendliness, compassion, empathy and care, I walk the path with you on your journey toward peace and happiness.

As a clinical psychologist, I believe that knowledge, awareness, and insight are the cornerstones of therapy. By helping increase emotional awareness and identifying their related thoughts and behaviors, I facilitate understanding of causes and triggers for anxiety, depression, and interpersonal conflict. An appreciation of each individual's unique background and encounters is crucial in comprehending how one relates to new information and experiences. I tailor empirically supported treatment to address emotional distress, and believe we are all active participants in our health and wellness. With the correct tools and insight, we can lead emotionally healthy, successful, and meaningful lives.

We are thrown into life without any guide. Life asks much from us, takes much from us and gives much to us. Learning how to fundamentally hold your own in your own existence, live by your own desires, your own passions, is central to living a life that you find meaningful and develop relationships that are deep leading to an overall sense of happiness. I help clients accept reality as it is, to learn to be themselves and to enjoy being themselves. Internal harmony is essential to human happiness. In sessions, clients discover the totality of their personhood, come to appreciate being alive, to thrive rather than to simply survive.

Beginning therapy can be scary and is a bold step toward making proactive changes in your life. I provide a warm and relaxed atmosphere to explore your emotional life in a safe and supportive space. Aware of the importance of the body, I experience you as a whole person: your words, life themes, affect, posture, and your presence. By experiencing you in your wholeness, I can contextualize what can feel confusing or fragmentary. I can share what I see and understand, helping you raise your self-awareness. This process can harmonize your thoughts and emotions. Insight alone often is not sufficient for healing.

I am committed to creating a therapeutic relationship that feels safe, supportive and is based on mutual respect. In sessions, my general style is to be interactive and direct, but I also emphasize very close listening. The goals of my interventions vary depending on your evolving struggles, needs and strengths. Together, we work to understand the multi-layered nature of the problem(s) and to find ways to improve your life and alleviate distress.

I am a New York State licensed and board-certified creative art therapist providing treatment for young people and adults. My approach is strength based, client centered and deeply grounded in the restorative power of the creative process. A strong therapeutic alliance fostered through trust, understanding and collaboration is essential in cultivating positive change. I deeply value the use of art making to facilitate authentic self-expression, increase self-awareness, and promote self-acceptance. “Art is a way of recognizing oneself...” -Louise Bourgeois

I offer video appointments for adults located anywhere in New York State. Whether you've done psychotherapy in the past or this is your first time looking, psychotherapy can be a rewarding experience. We might know what we'd like to change, and other times this might be less clear even though we want something different. Wherever you are on this continuum, I hope I can be of help to you in your search for change. Generally speaking, my style incorporates your talents, abilities, strengths, values, and creative interests - the elements that make you unique and that are not captured by a psychiatric diagnosis - in our work.

You are not crazy. In a world that often stigmatizes therapy as something only 'crazy' people do, it's crucial to recognize that seeking help is a brave and empowering choice. Quality therapy has the power to transform your life in ways you may never have imagined. It's an investment in yourself—a step towards reclaiming control over your feelings, relationships, and future. If you're tired of feeling like external forces dictate your emotions, walking on eggshells in your relationships, being overly critical of yourself, or feeling trapped by your past, therapy can offer a path towards healing and growth.

Attachment-based Therapists
Is attachment-based therapy the same as attachment therapy?
Attachment-based therapy may be confused with what is called “attachment therapy” (sometimes called “holding therapy”), a discredited and dangerous approach to treating children with attachment disorders, autism, or other mental health concerns. Attachment therapy—not attachment-based therapy—may involve restraining a child, forcing eye contact, and other coercive or abusive techniques. None of these practices are used in attachment-based therapy and the two modalities are in no way related.
What should I expect from attachment-based therapy?
Attachment-based therapy is based on attachment theory, which posits that children’s early relationships with their caregivers strongly influence their ability to navigate the world later in life. Thus, adults who seek attachment-based therapy should expect to deeply explore their childhood, identifying the dynamics or experiences that disrupted their attachment and the steps necessary to overcome challenges that arose as a result. Parents and children should expect to explore the possible factors that disrupted the parent-child relationship and work toward restoring trust and connection.
How long does attachment-based therapy last?
Certain forms of attachment-based therapy, especially those designed for parents and children, last for a set number of sessions; for example, Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-Up, a specific attachment-based approach for young children who have undergone early adversity, unfolds over 10 one-hour sessions. When attachment-based therapy is practiced on adults or combined with other modalities, it may not last a specific length of time; clients may wish to ask prospective therapists how long they expect treatment to take.
Does attachment-based therapy work?
Most of the research on attachment-based therapy focuses on children and adolescents. Some of this research shows a positive effect, especially for attachment-based family therapy (ABFT). Other studies, however, have found that attachment-based therapy is no more effective than other approaches to childhood depression, anxiety, or suicidality. Less is known about the therapy’s efficacy on adult populations.
