If you're struggling with turning to food for comfort, feeling guilty and ashamed after eating, and worrying about eating WAY too much, then you're in the right place. Whether you tend to overeat because of stress, turn to emotional eating to soothe yourself, or binge eat, you want to understand why this is happening so you can stop it. You're tired of hiding it and feeling out of control. You want to be able to watch a TV show at night and not be obsessively thinking about the sweets in the pantry. You're ready to feel good around food, drop the constant self-judgment about what you eat, and wake up feeling good in the morning.

Are you experiencing difficulties in your relationship ? How about struggling to get past a breakup or with self esteem ? If you're dealing with anxiousness, sadness, depression, overwhelming thoughts or having private breakdowns in the bathroom, it's time to schedule a session. If you're finding it hard raising a teenager who’s struggling in school, social settings or at home and they are feeling as if no one understands them, it's time to schedule a session. Having that extra support goes along way. I work with teenagers as young as 13 years old as well as individuals (adults), couples, and families.

I am trilingual in English and the Filipino dialects: Tagalog and Cebuano. I have a unique understanding of the bicultural/immigrant experience, being an immigrant myself. I believe everyone has an innate need to feel seen and valued. This is my goal in my practice: that the person sitting in front of me knows their value and provide a safe space to process the jagged edges of life. I want to ensure that the goals clients have in therapy are met and to empower them to face the other side of my office door.

Many times I have heard people say, “I want to be happier” or “I want to feel better”, but they are not sure what this looks like, what it feels like, or what it even means. They have been struggling with anxiety, sadness, stress, or other negative emotions and experiences for so long, they feel like they have lost touch with what it means to be happy. If you feel like you can relate to these statements in some way, you may be feeling stuck or hopeless about a better future. I want you to know that the way you are feeling is not permanent, and it is okay to ask for help. I am here to support you and make you feel heard.

During the therapeutic process, I challenge clients with the statement that I am "Daring You to Be YOU!" This challenge of personal acceptance is designed to help individuals to evaluate their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to determine what is hindering them from achieving their goals. As clients go through the therapeutic process, they learn to develop the intimacy (in-to-me-I-see) needed to develop the strength to face life's challenges. The ideal client wants therapeutic support in acknowledging personal triggers, defining happiness, developing healthy relationships, and identifying areas for personal development.
