• Racial Identity

  I utilize Relational Cultural Therapy to ensure we can sensitively and effectively examine how the various personal and cultural relationships in your life have impacted you and your wellbeing. Additionally, I believe my lived experience as a individual who is Filipino-American and a second-generation immigrant has helped me foster a greater appreciation and empathy for the challenges facing many folks who identify as BIPOC and/or AAPI.

• Insomnia

  I have received specific training in providing CBT-I services. Additionally, I have personal experience with both managing insomnia and the struggle of finding providers who can effectively support folks who have insomnia concerns. My goal is to provide you with effective, evidence-based tools that help you develop personalized and life-long healthy sleep habits.

• PTSD

  I have years of experience supporting folks through various trauma-related concerns such as racial trauma, SA, and childhood trauma. Additionally, I have received training in TF-CBT and trauma-informed care to ensure our trauma work is compassionate, personalized, and effective. I am also currently engaged in EMDR training to further expand and deepen my ability to support folks in processing their trauma and managing their trauma-related concerns.

• Anxiety

  I have received training in and regularly incorporate tools from CBT and solution-focused therapy to help folks manage their anxiety. Such tools help individuals with identifying and challenging their thoughts and behaviors that perpetuate patterns of anxiety as well as developing personalized, positive thoughts and behaviors that help individuals manage life's challenges and stresses in a effective manner.

• Depression

  I have training in and regularly utilize tools from CBT and solution-focused therapy to support folks in identifying the ways their thoughts and behaviors perpetuate depressive symptoms, challenge these thoughts and behaviors, and increase their use of thoughts and behaviors that can help folks move through their depressive symptoms and lead lives filled with meaning, purpose, and fulfillment.
