“I am who I am connected to. I am because we are.” This is called Kapwa, and within the Filipino culture, it means inclusiveness is the moral obligation to treat one another equally. This is how I approach therapy with all my clients. I am accepting new clients 18+, specializing in complex trauma, suicide loss, grief, attachment trauma, and BIPOC/AANHPI cultural issues. I believe the path we walk often has been carved for us through culture and generations of trauma that have been passed down to us. Methods I use are Psychodynamic Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Imago Relationship Therapy, and Relational-Cultural Therapy.

Neurofeedback is a unique, drugless approach to addressing brainwave imbalance. The goal of Neurofeedback is to transform a dysregulated brainwave imbalance into a normal, regulated, organized pattern. By doing this, the brain becomes more stable and can operate optimally and efficiently. Research demonstrates Neurofeedback's efficacy in managing many neurological conditions such as ADHD, Migraine and Tension Headaches, Insomnia, Chronic Pain, Post Stroke Syndrome, Anxiety and Panic Attacks, as well as many others.

It is always on my mind to ensure that our relationship remains entirely focused on you, but as a part of the collaborative duo that will become client and therapist I’m happy to share a bit about myself. Relationally, I have been described as down-to-earth, authentic and sincere and I enjoy laughing and celebrating with clients in the therapy space as well. With humility and curiosity I am eager to hear about your life experiences. Licensed in TN (license 3396) & Virginia (license 0701010748)

I have a passion for helping individuals and couples work through conflict by providing hands on tools for daily challenges. I also have a desire to help those who struggle with addiction in all forms, not just substances. I offer trauma informed therapy for individuals who have endured complex trauma of all kinds including grief and loss. If you suffer from anxiety or depression I provide more than just “talk therapy” with Brainspotting. I have a background in the public school system in Nashville. I will see both adolescent or adult clients on a sliding scale, and I am in the process of getting paneled with Aetna, Cigna, and BCBS.

I have been in the field for over 27 years. I have experience helping people of all ages with anxiety, panic, disorder, and trauma. I am a License Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Emotional Freedom Technique Practitioner, and Herbalist. I have found that combining cognitive behavior therapy, E.F.T., and exploring an individual's core limiting beliefs can be practical tools. As many of these tools have been helpful to me in my own healing journey.

Do you often feel like you are not meeting your own standards? Do you feel stuck in uncertainty, unable to move in the best direction? Is it hard for you to feel satisfied? Do you desire more fulfilling relationships with others? Growing up, you may have encountered people who were critical of your performance / appearance, and who burdened you with unrealistic expectations. This can make it difficult for you to feel happy with your achievements and quiet your inner critic. You may be numbing some of the pain with unhealthy choices that are starting to feel just as inescapable. If this resonates, therapy could be a good next step.

I know it can feel so isolating to experience anxiety, depression, or just mental health concerns you cannot explain. Although many people experience these things, healing is best fostered in relationships. Together, we can help that "loud speaker" put the microphone away.

Life is full of twists and turns, filled with traumas and hardships that we cannot predict or control. We develop coping mechanisms to survive, to protect ourselves from pain and turmoil. These coping mechanisms may have served you well in the past, but now they may be holding you back, causing more harm than good. Through therapy, we can unearth these defense mechanisms and unravel the wounds that lie beneath. Traumas can build up over time, clouding our vision. By healing these wounds, you can begin to see yourself and the world more clearly, and shed the layers of protection that no longer serve you.

Often our feelings of sadness, shut down, or overwhelm are signals that something important needs our attention. If you are often fearful of getting stuck in your emotions or worry you don’t know what to do with your emotions when they arise, then therapy can provide a supportive environment to gain more clarity and insight to your emotional patterns and unmet needs. People pleasing, perfectionism, and procrastination patterns can be healed through exploring the triggers we have in the present and the root of those triggers in our past. In therapy, I prioritize your sense of safety, connection, and autonomy.
