Accepting new clients! At CH Counseling, the clients we work with come into therapy with a variety of symptoms and concerns that are interfering with their every day life. Some of the common symptoms clients come in for are: depression, self-harming behaviors, anxiety, low self-esteem, numbing or detached feelings from others, and suicidal ideations.

I believe change takes place in the context of a relationship. My focus is on helping my clients achieve their therapy goals. I collaborate with my clients to support them in finding solutions to the challenges they bring to our sessions. I use an integrated approach tailored to your goals and values. I tend to be solution and goal focused, but to get there most individuals need to process experiences and emotions to better understand their own thoughts and feelings. With productive self-awareness your actions will naturally become more effective and thoughtful.

Feeling overwhelmed has sent you looking for a therapist. It’s tough to find one right now. You’re looking though for a place to unload. A place to receive support with the stress and difficulty that is your life right now. Juggling work, family, friends, responsibilities—plus added anxiety and/or depression. Things have been getting challenging. You need some help to cope with it all. It is a big step to reach out for help. I recognize the step you are taking. You can’t do this alone.

I invite you into a safe, confidential, & caring environment to receive help with anxiety, depression, and difficult situations in your life. Many of us long to be truly seen, heard, & known. Sadly, we have spent years accruing just the opposite: feeling invisible, silenced, isolated, rejected or abandoned. This therapy is collaborative and gentle. I have over 10 years of experience working with people, their emotional needs, & their personal journey towards growth & healing. My hope is that you feel my deep valuing of your life experience, a sense of honor for your uniqueness & my belief for positive change within you.

I believe in the therapeutic process and relationship, and find immense joy in offering a sense of normalcy and hope to my clients. Sometimes, our vision becomes blurred and we can't see past the weeds in our life. I'm here to help you wade through the mess; to gain a clearer perspective. Each person has a unique and intimate story to share and I am grateful when invited to take part in one's journey.

Your story matters. Peoples’ stories can get messy and I am not afraid to sit in that mess with my clients. I use Narrative Therapy to help clients see the power of their own story and allow me into that narrative so that together we can redefine the messier or more broken parts. I also use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients pinpoint what they value most about their story and work toward acceptance and commitment in taking action steps toward their goals.

Are you caught between the chaos of ADHD and life demands? Is your journey filled with distractions, setbacks, and surprises? You may be fed up with struggling to focus, experiencing mood swings that disrupt your day, or feeling overwhelmed by disorganized thoughts and tasks. You might not even remember a time things didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You're ready to regain clarity and stability. You're ready to tackle challenges with confidence and efficiency. Most of all, you are ready to reclaim control of your life and embrace a future where ADHD no longer holds you back.

Anyone can benefit from therapy, whether you are struggling with a specific issue or have a desire to learn more about yourself for personal growth. Sometimes we need a supportive and objective person to guide us so we can uncover and break down any barriers that interfere with our happiness. My goal is to provide the space for you to do just that - to explore your thoughts, emotions, and behavior patterns in a safe, judgment-free environment. I am especially interested in working with those dealing with adoption related and gender identity related issues.

Many of us seek therapy at different periods of our lives for different reasons, such as couple and family conflicts, losing loved ones, life transition issues, addiction, sadness, anxiety, and depression. We sometimes may not figure out what we are going through. Unknowns and uncertainties may increase in our lives and become unmanageable, or we are unable to fulfill our search for meaning. Therapy helps us cope with difficult and painful emotions, figure out what we are going through, and name it. Carl Rogers defines growth as any kind of movement toward “self-esteem, flexibility, or respect and compassion for self and others."

I enjoy working with individuals that have been met with challenges that may seem too great to overcome alone. I want to work with those clients struggling to adjust to changes in their life or lifestyle or seek a deeper understanding of how they interact with their world. I thrive working with clients that interested in improving their interpersonal connections whether that be within the nuclear family, work peers, or in the community. I seek to work with individuals that struggle to understand why they interact with themselves and others the way they do because that is the core of wellness.

My therapy work is rooted in a systemic approach with children, adolescents, couples, and families experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, parenting challenges, grief, etc... . Through my own identities and experiences as a 1.5 generation immigrant from the Philippines, being raised in Los Angeles, and as an educator for over 20 years, I understand the impact of harm and losses that carry from generation to generation caused by systems that are not made for us. They surface in our lives and within our relationships.

Cultivating meaning in our life and connections with our loved ones serves as the cornerstones in discovering growth, purpose and happiness within our lives. As a trauma informed systemic relational therapist, I use narrative therapy, IFS, couples therapy, EMDR and mindfulness to assist clients working through life transitions, challenges, relationship/family/parenting issues, trauma, anxiety, depression and grief. I am dedicated to offering therapy that is inclusive and empathetic, as well as offering care to clients of systemically oppressed communities. I want to offer a safer environment for all. Accepting new clients

As your therapist, my goal is to provide you with a warm and welcoming environment where you are free to explore the areas of your life you wish to improve for holistic healing - physical, emotional, mental, relational, and spiritual. I offer a warm and empathetic environment as I use a person-centered approach that allows me to understand you through your own unique experiences and walk alongside you on this journey to achieve your personal goals. My primary focus is in child, individual, and couples/family counseling as well as working with neurodivergent populations using neurodiversity-affirming language and approach.

COUNSELING FOR YOU & THE ONES YOU LOVE MOST...I am devoted to supporting you and the ones you love through tough times-the kind of support and solutions needed to start feeling better and living life again. I bring expertise aimed at resolving a wide range of life's emotional and relational difficulties. In a very comfortable, accepting and supportive atmosphere, my goal is to provide the assistance needed to get beyond the obstacles you currently face.

For 20+ years I have been providing individual psychotherapy. You might be thinking about therapy because you have a sense that something is wrong or something hurts. Sometimes all you know is you have not felt happy for a long time. Perhaps you are experiencing confusion about a relationship or are having anxiety or depression. You have Bipolar Disorder or ADHD and want help beyond medications. Perhaps you are going through a transition such as divorce. You may find yourself up against the "same old problems" at work or home. You may be trying to manage trauma. I can help.

Have you been struggling with difficult thoughts or feelings? Ever feel stuck or like you're living on auto-pilot? If so, I can help. I believe that we are healthiest when we allow ourselves to be exactly who we are. I have special interests in relational and religious trauma, as well as working with people with addiction issues, severe depression, anxiety disorders, and suicidal thoughts and actions. No matter where you are in your healing journey, I hope to join you and help you see that you are not alone in the struggle. You are your greatest healer, and I will be your guide along the way.

Does everyone else seem to have it together, while you’re still trying to figure life out? Have you always had issues with tasks or social situations? Many people who think differently have trouble going with the flow of everyone else. I’ve worked with many clients who’ve struggled with concentration, relationship skills, managing emotions, and more. I specialize in working with vulnerable groups, such as people who are neurodivergent, and parents who are in difficult situations with a struggling child or their own toxic relationship. I have experience working with ADHD, ASD, TBI, parenting training, and more.
