Every day we face challenging opportunities and situations where we have to make difficult decisions. It may be hard to be honest and vulnerable with ourselves and others. You might be struggling with identifying the different emotions that you are experiencing. Emotions impact our decision-making process, ability to face challenges, maintain healthy relationships, and behaviors. Therapy can be the next step for you to have a supportive space to explore what you are currently experiencing.

Seeking for emotional support can be intimidating. It may especially be difficult if you are coming from a culture where addressing mental illness is still stigmatized and can be perceived as “bringing shame to the family”. As a Filipino American, I want to help transform the view of psychotherapy in my community (as well as in other communities). I want to be able to assure individuals that it is alright to reach out to a professional to share what they are going through. To encourage the utilization of such resources in able to feel more empowered.

Beyond being a therapist, I'm a daughter raised in a Filipino-American immigrant family, a wife, a mom to two active young kids and a travel enthusiast.
We all go through difficulties at one point or another in our lives. It is natural to seek out connection and validation when we feel vulnerable. Rather than navigating these challenges on your own, therapy provides an opportunity where you can get support and learn new ways of coping to make meaningful changes in your life. In therapy, I create a supportive and safe space to help individuals process their current struggles and share their personal experiences in order to find healing and transformation.
