Are you looking for an authentic connection with a therapist and appreciate an open, supportive dialogue? Are you searching for a therapist who will give feedback and explore with you rather than only offering a listening ear? Do you feel stuck, struggling to get through even one more day? Have you had trouble in the past connecting with therapists? If any of this sounds like you, then you are in the right place.

Life is hard. Sometimes life is harder than what we’re equipped for. When that happens, seeking help can be daunting, and finding a therapist who’s a good fit even harder. While I can’t magically make everything better or brighter, I will sit in and walk through the darkness with you until we make it to the light. I have experience working with individuals who are dealing with trauma, depression, self-harm, anxiety, grief, relationship issues, and identity crisis. My areas of particular focus are sexual trauma, emotional abuse, suicidal ideation, self-harm, attachment issues, depression, PTSD, and those dark night-of-the-soul times.

Life, relationships, and trauma can have an impact on the way you perceive yourself and/or the world. If you are interested in reaching goals of self-prioritization, getting the life and relationship you deserve, managing your mental health and healing from past and/or recent life transitions or trauma then start your healing journey today! Every relationship is a teaching relationship, especially the relationship you have with yourself. Your mental health matters. Let's figure out what balance and management means to you.

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.

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.

Nothing gives me greater pleasure than helping others in their journey towards personal growth and healing. As your therapist, my primary goal is to empower YOU through use of therapeutic techniques and by providing pertinent tools to foster self-development. The goal is to enhance healing at a pace that is comfortable and appropriate for your specific situation and/or personal goals and needs. The sky is the limit when you're willing to do the work. Let's partner together in this process. I look forward to working with you soon.
