    I am a PhD candidate with 10 years of clinical experience working with Queer and Indigenous clients in a variety of programmatic settings. I utilize a genuinely warm, humorous, and direct approach to gently challenge clients and invite them to step out of their current comfort zone and step into authentic living. I advocate for culturally conscious and meaningful practices and ways of being (e.g., language revitalization, basketweaving, ceremonial practices, song and dance, traditional tattooing and piercing, etc) as ways to actively address mental health concerns.

    My approach to therapy is client-centered and collaborative; I want to know how my clients define their challenges and their perspectives on what tools will best work for them in achieving their goals. I recognize my clients as the experts in their lives! I use reflection and reframing to explore alternative perspectives and mindfulness to enhance awareness of behavior and opportunities for acceptance. I am passionate about communication and love teaching those skills and empowering my clients to speak their truth! I love to see each of my clients live their own unique values-driven lives.

    I use an eclectic style that I have formed over many years of working with adults and children experiencing health traumas and family transitions through foster care, etc. I often start with crisis intervention and prioritize starting where the client is. I provide feedback and suggestions and motivational interviewing. I also have experience working with harm reduction models for substance abuse intervention. I often use Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) to help clients with self-esteem, shame, and PTSD symptoms.

    My style is rooted in intuitive knowledge and a firm belief that people have the innate wisdom and ability to help themselves arrive at healing, especially when addressing internal struggles and social influences. I am very client-centered and eclectic, orchestrating a collaborative approach that means a lot to me. I also consider the whole person, not only their internal struggles but also their social symbols in the world, which heavily influence their experiences as they walk through life. I love providing a safe and brave space for those not always seen or heard. Awareness is key; once you have that, you can decide which direction to go next. You have the magic and are the expert of you. My role is to help you tap into that magic to decode and unravel what it looks and feels like to operate and live from your highest self.

    My goal is to cultivate a warm, non-judgmental, inclusive space for my clients to embark on a journey of healing and self-discovery. I have extensive experience in supporting clients who have suffered acute and chronic health challenges as well as in supporting clients who are coping with significant life transitions (relationship changes, birth, loss, career transitions, etc). Every client brings unique strengths, identities, histories, and relationships to our work. I utilize a relational and collaborative approach, integrating these unique qualities into the treatment plans we will develop. In our initial sessions, I focus on a client’s specific therapeutic objectives to help chart a path of growth and healing for our therapeutic work together. I employ a multi-model approach and draw on training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. My primary objective in all therapeutic work is to facilitate healing and growth, and ultimately, to help each client to leave our work with a renewed sense of self-confidence and self-reliance.

    I sought licensure as a Marriage and Family Therapist to help those afflicted with addiction, mental illness, and traumatic brain injury. As a first-generation born Filipino and raised by parents that immigrated to America from the Philippines, I developed a culturally sensitive lens, and have treated clients from various backgrounds. I am passionate about providing therapy that is inclusive to many different ethnicities, view myself as an ally for the LGBTQIA+ community, and value social justice for BIPOC clients. I have experience working with individuals, children and adolescents. Throughout my experience working in the mental health field, I have found that most ailments are linked back to traumatic events, which encouraged me to become an Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapist, and help those with PTSD and/or trauma.

    I specialize in treatments for the following: anxiety, communication, conflict resolution, stress management, grief and loss, parenting, couple and family issues, and work and career Issues. Throughout my career, I have witnessed the extraordinary power and strength we all possess to overcome whatever obstacles or trials we face. When faced with a crisis, trauma, transition, or stress, we naturally seek comfort and support to get us through. While we often find this from family or friends, sometimes we need extra support and guidance to help us work through these complex issues. It is my belief that therapy is a partnership, and if you're ready for help, together we can make strides in achieving your goals. Real and enduring change requires fresh thinking and different approaches to your old problems. I'm an eclectic therapist, meaning I use different tools from multiple treatment modalities to fit your unique circumstances and needs. My ultimate goal is to work in partnership with you to build the skills you need to achieve your objectives for yourself or for your family, and to help you make new and better choices.
