About My Clients
I help my clients feel less overwhelmed by anxiety, shame, and grief when they feel like they have to start their lives all over again. On the outside, they might seem like they have it all together but inside they feel hella messy—filled with self-doubt, loneliness, and guilt. For couples, they're tired of how disagreements leave them feeling triggered and exhausted. I help them work through the shit that keeps them stuck in the same cycles of conflict so that they can enjoy their relationship.
My Background and Approach
As a queer Filipino therapist, people who grew up in immigrant homes, have experienced a traumatic loss, or religious harm gravitate towards my work. I integrate Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help you build a relationship with your emotions so that they no longer overwhelm you, and to help your relationship be filled with more compassion and curiosity.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe how we show up in relationships and cope with difficult emotions is influenced by how we learned to survive growing up in an imperfect and unjust world. I value understanding who you are in the context of your lived experiences, and offer a non-judgmental space for you to show up unapologetically as yourself. I look forward to connecting with you!
