Kamusta po, kababayan! Kapag ang buhay po ay mahirap, pansinin natin kung paano tayo kumilos, gumanti, o magisip. Ngunit hindi ko mababago kung paano mangyayari ang ating buhay, bakat' naman mabago natin ang ugali kung saan nagdudurot ng parusa at paghihirap. Mahirap ang buhay sa Amerika, ramdam ko din ang paghihirap sa bagong bansa. Pero hindi ibig sabihin ikaw ay nagiisa; tara't magusap tayo.

If you are struggling with sexual concerns, you have come to the right place. Some sexual concerns may include: low/high sexual desire, desire discrepancy, a sexless relationship, sexual difficulties (e.g. painful sex, early/delayed ejaculation), sexual trauma, rebuilding emotional and sexual intimacy, and unhealthy relationship patterns. Or perhaps you are struggling with compulsive sexual behaviors. You have realized that your sexual thoughts and behaviors are getting out of control, or you have discovered that your partner is compulsively using sex or porn. You are feeling understandably betrayed, hurt, angry, and overwhelmed.

Sometimes life’s events can be overwhelming, making everyday activities and incidents even more difficult to handle. These experiences can lead to sadness, anxiety, insecurity, feelings of isolation, and even an immense feeling of loss or being lost. It is in these moments that having a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space to talk to someone can be the most helpful. As a therapist, I provide a space where we can work collaboratively to reflect and gain insight on these cycles, where they come from and how they impact our choices and behaviors to make healthy and sustainable changes in our lives.

We all have unique stories that have shaped us. I believe healing is most transformative when we begin to understand the intersections that make us whole: the parts of ourselves that we value and celebrate as well as the parts that we criticize, deny or dislike. I want to know how you feel about your story and how it has impacted your sense of wholeness. My goal is to help you build a better understanding of the pain, distress or fear that holds you back from achieving the life you want so you can begin to make room for more joy and a meaningful existence.

Struggles in your relationship can be overwhelming and confusing where you're constantly arguing over small things and feel a growing distance as a couple. "How did things get to this point and how do I fix it?" I want you to know that I understand because I have been in your shoes.

As a Filipina/x/o or BIPOC, you’ve learned to be a chameleon, to mask and alter yourself in order to gain acceptance and survive. You’re one person around family and a completely different person at work or around friends. You want to be in relationship with others but haven’t been able to find a way to honor your own needs as well. Call it people-pleasing, or call it survival mode. Either way, altering yourself may have worked for you in the past, but it doesn’t feel like it’s working anymore.

I conduct therapy sessions in English, though I speak conversational Tagalog and Cantonese.
My approach to therapy begins with evidence-based treatment, addressing the immediate reasons you’re seeking support, followed by deeper work with the subconscious once your day to day becomes more stable. Together we can return agency to your life by collaborating on tangible solutions while uncovering the origin of limiting beliefs. I work with couples and individuals to recalibrate patterns of behavior that leave them struggling with depression, anxiety, co-dependency, or substance use.

I work with people in various stages of their lives—from young adults to those in or nearing retirement. Some come to therapy when serious, distressing symptoms disrupt their home, school or professional life. Consequent to these trying times, many find themselves alone facing unexpected, painful losses and separations. Life may have become structured around chronic stress, conflictual relationships or managing a debilitating illness. The demands of daily living can become overwhelming, and a new way through is essential to gaining, or regaining, wellness and stability.
