You've spent so long meeting everyone else's expectations, you've lost your own voice beneath them. Family, culture, career, faith—all pulling, until what's left is anxiety instead of peace, performance instead of confidence. But that peace can't be earned by trying harder. It has to be received. As a Filipina American therapist, I understand carrying family, culture, and faith all at once. I offer culturally responsive, evidence-based therapy—and, for those who want it, biblical counseling. Together, we'll help you heal, grow, and build a life shaped not by guilt, but by grace.
Hi, I'm Helen Bass, a 1.5-generation Filipina American therapist. You are more than your struggles—and more than what's expected of you. Together, we'll uncover your story, heal old patterns, and build relationships that last. For those who want it, I also offer biblical counseling rooted in your Christian faith.
When you’re ready, you can book a complimentary 15-20 minute intro call through my website. We’ll talk about what’s been feeling heavy, what you’re hoping will feel different, and whether working together feels like the right fit. You don’t need the perfect words or a clear plan before reaching out. We can start with what feels hardest right now.
