I am not along the lines of the "traditional" therapist (not a "blank slate" approach), I strive be an authentic person and inclusive for everyone to make clients as comfortable as possible for rapport in sessions. My group of focus is primarily adults and adolescents. I offer 10+ years of clinical experience in various treatment settings including prominent experience in depression, anxiety, and trauma as well as self-harm, addiction, and other mood-related/co-occurring disorders. I am trained art therapy interventions and EMDR for additional alternative approaches to presenting concerns.

As a Filipino-American Resident in Counseling and proud military spouse, my path to this work has been deeply personal. Growing up in a multicultural military family taught me the importance of resilience, adaptability, and having strong support systems. These experiences are what shaped my passion for guiding others through life’s challenges and transitions. I feel most fulfilled when I can help people strengthen their relationships, find clarity in the fog of anxiety and depression, and build a true sense of self-worth.

Even strong, smart, successful people know when to utilize the help of experts. Maybe you’re not in crisis, just a couple in a “good enough” relationship, but some of the time things get painfully off track. Or an individual whose life seems to be going pretty well on the outside – but privately, you’re hurting. Sometimes, your ways of “getting by” turn into habits that need to be amended. It’s not always clear how to go about initiating change and it helps to have an objective perspective. Counseling is a great way to improve your life. Together we will explore, identify, and rebuild habits and patterns to provide lasting change.
