My interests and knowledge in counseling began, as a personal necessity, over 40 years ago. As a teen wife and mother I struggled with constant stress and adversity. At 23, leaving an abusive marriage, with no skills and on welfare, I was left with few choices. At this intersection asking for help and receiving counseling were the most significant steps towards transforming my life. I applied for various grants, began college, raised my daughter and worked part time. There were many very difficult setbacks and challenges but with the emotional support of counseling, learning new coping strategies and practicing turning disappointments into achievements I succeeded!

I believe that the start of your wellness journey is all within yourself, and as a counselor, I am there to guide you along that journey. The most inspiring aspect is that every unique client finds their path to their journey. No one journey is like the other, and the way to get there can be vastly different. My therapeutic approach is deeply rooted in person-centered theory, eco wellness, family systems, and holistic wellness. These areas allow me as a counselor to support the uniqueness of each of my client’s journeys to aid them in discovering their potential to overcome obstacles in their lives.

Feeling stressed out, lonely, overwhelmed? My approach is inclusive, body- & sex-positive, and affirming of all racial, age, religion, ability, relationship status, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, sex, gender, or military identifications. Counseling is a place to build authentic, trusting relationships where you can freely express yourself without fear of judgement. Sessions should be a place where you feel comfortable delving into the darker, more bothersome parts of life and know that you are able to openly express yourself.

The decision to engage in therapy can be life changing. It can also be scary and challenging as we are giving up the most vulnerable details of our lives in hopes of living a better one. That decision to engage is one of the most powerful aspects of therapy and a responsibility that I hold in the highest regard.

You pretend like you’re okay with this “sorta-in-a-relationship-but-not”. He sends “good morning” texts & when you’re together, there’s an intense chemistry like you two were made for each other. Despite that, you’re constantly overthinking his every word and action. You crave planned dates but get “You up?” texts and last minute “hangouts”. You either feel like you’re too much or not enough. You tell yourself to be patient & hope it will pan into an official title. But you’re exhausted being on the rollercoaster of anxiety, hope and disappointment. You’ve tried to end it but you always get reeled back in.

My practice is focused on those seeking spiritual development, both within and outside of mainline wisdom traditions. I particularly enjoy working with folks interested in Buddhism and other paths of contemplative practice. While I welcome all client inquires, currently I'm primarily offering counseling services to parents, fathers and men on the threshold of fatherhood, and anyone in recovery from addiction. As a father of 4 young children, I'm deeply invested in helping parents reimagine their roles and livelihoods to realize greater joy and intimacy in their families and homes.

As a Filipina, I understand the difficulties and stigma of being vulnerable with a stranger and being open to one’s personal difficulties. Have you ever felt like you needed extra support and are unsure of who you can reach out and talk to? Or better yet, felt as though no one understands the struggle of being "you"? This is why as a therapist and an Asian American, I strive to create a safe and inviting environment for my client in order to break the stigma surrounding mental health. By using a psychodynamic and eclectic approach, I assist my clients by meeting them at their current level and need.
