Embarking on the journey to seek support can be a brave and transformative first step in your therapeutic process. If you find yourself navigating the challenges of work, parenting, or relationships while trying to maintain balance, you're not alone. I genuinely believe that within you lies the innate tools essential for a successful therapeutic journey.

***Serving all of Washington state via Telehealth*** Much of adolescence and adulthood is reprogramming systems that have been put in place since childhood. I help individuals adapt to challenging life transitions as well as those wanting to understand and reconnect with themselves to find their sense of meaning in the world. My main purpose is to help others reach their potential in living a happy, healthy, and satisfying life.

I offer 100% teletherapy for adults (individuals and couples). The foundation of my practice is based on attachment and guided by research and work by Dr. Sue Johnson and Dr. John Gottman. I am passionate about helping others strengthen and build secure attachments. My work is centered around treating anxiety, depression, women’s issues, self-esteem issues, trauma, grief, and attachment disorders. The treatment modalities I utilize are attachment-based, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), feminist perspective, the Gottman Method, motivational interviewing, and Trauma Focused-CBT to name a few.

In this line of work, it is amazing to see how positive progress is made with patients and how much their lives improve thanks to achieving small victories and through community resources/services. I would like to work with folks who seek to better themselves and create positive change in their lives. Together we could develop coping skills and build upon your strengths to enhance your quality of life.

You don’t have to be alone. Today, your journey to healing begins. I aim to know my client. This allows me to undertand their issues, their needs and their goals. Growing up with disability provided an opportunity for me to rise above discrimination, bullying, racism, oppression, marginalization, anxiety, depression, and face life’s unending challenges. I am fluent and can provide therapy in three languages fluently, English, Ilokano, Tagalog. I am trained in Eastern and Western approaches. I use evidenced based treatment interventions including but not limited to EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Approach.

A meaningful life and sense of freedom await on the other side of healing. Congratulations on taking the first step! I specialize in individual therapy for adults, adolescents (ages 12+), and children. My focus areas include anxiety, depression, PTSD, grief, bereavement, and struggles with adjustment. I work with clients who want a better understanding of their feelings as well as invested in their own healing and self-development.

Hello, and welcome! Life can be very challenging and overwhelming at times. I know and I get it. For some, we tend to try to solve our problems on our own and reaching out for help is out of the question; sometimes it works. If you haven't been able to solve it on your own, I would love to meet you, and together we can create ways towards hope and begin the healing process. I believe that therapy can assist you by helping to identify what has worked in the past, what you already have within that you can draw upon in helping to obtain what you are hoping for in life.

Throughout life there are many things we are in control of, however there are also things we may not have control over. Experiencing this feeling of no control can manifest itself in anxiety, depression, loss of self, or even impact relationships with those around you. Whether it's due to your upbringing, the environment, or traumatic experiences, the constant fight to regain power and control of your life again can be exhausting, overwhelming and isolating. Therapy is that helping hand that can guide you on your healing journey and path to self-discovery. It can also be your safe place to rest and just be.

Does it feel like no matter what you do, things never change? You’re running on all cylinders, trying to be everything for everyone, including yourself. You tell everyone that you are fine. Managing. But you’re noticing how it’s impacting you. You realize that things need to change. Whether you're experiencing the impacts of systemic oppression, self-esteem, or relationship issues, know that you don't have to be alone in this journey. No two individuals are the same, and I tailor our sessions together to address challenges unique to you. We will work together to understand and address the root cause of those issues.

I have worked with individuals in a variety of settings since 2014. I have served individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds such as military families, minority groups, immigrants, and refugees. Most of my work focuses on helping clients find their strengths and use them to manage life stressors, anxiety, depression, adjustment issues, trauma, and acculturation.
