I am a National Certified Counselor and received my bachelor’s in psychology from Silliman University and master’s in clinical Mental Health Counseling from Antioch University, New England. I have years of experience working with individuals, couples and families from different cultures and backgrounds dealing with different kinds of life issues and mental issues. I have worked in different settings such as private practice, community, and school-based settings.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In your first session with me, you can expect a warm and supportive environment where you will be treated with respect and empathy. The initial meeting is primarily focused on getting to know you and understanding your unique concerns and goals. We will have a brief discussion about the counseling process, including confidentiality and what to expect in our work together. We will talk about your current challenges, background, significant events, and experiences that may be influencing your feelings or behavior. I use a variety of therapeutic approaches and techniques tailored to your individual needs. This may include cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness practices, solution focused or other methods suited to your situation.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I believe my greatest strengths lie in my empathy, commitment to client-centered care, and ability to build strong therapeutic relationships.

Eclectic
Everyone is unique, and have unique needs in therapy. I work collaboratively with each of my clients to identify their needs, and use techniques and modalities that fits and works best.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I strive to create a supportive and non-judgmental environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, gain insights, and ultimately, build resilience for long-term well-being. In our sessions, we will work together to identify and challenge negative thought patterns and beliefs that may be contributing to distress or difficulties. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, or other challenges, CBT offers a structured and evidence-based framework to address these issues. If you're ready to take steps towards a more fulfilling and balanced life, I'm here to support you on your journey. Let's work together to create positive changes and enhance your overall quality of life.
