You move between culturally different worlds and perhaps you don't feel like you completely fit in anywhere, that your identity is mixed or "in between." You long to say what you've never before dared to say. Perhaps you missed a warm, nurturing upbringing, and you were taught to focus on achievement at the expense of social and emotional needs. Is this a legacy you wish to accept for yourself or your children? As the American-born child of Filipino immigrants, these issues resonate deeply with me, and I can help if you feel stuck between opposing cultural values.
Depression and anxiety are often rooted in early emotional experiences, and the pain of remembering rejection, fear, or traumatic events might keep you from understanding that present-day challenges are linked to earlier experiences. I can help you calm your nervous system, stop repeating patterns of the past by moving toward new, healthier choices.
I work with Asian American professionals who work in fast-paced high-stress environments. Many of my clients are grad students, lawyers or tech professionals with a creative flair, as well as those learning to break with harsher parts of cultural tradition to parent more supportively and compassionately.
