I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 15 years of experience working with children, teens and adults. While my clinical experience is quite broad, I especially enjoy helping individuals navigate life changes, including pregnancy, postpartum and parenting. As a Filipina American raised in an immigrant family, I am keenly aware of how cultural identity can shape one’s experiences and beliefs. As a parent of young children myself, I can fully appreciate the challenges that come with raising a family, integrating two cultures and developing a parenting approach that reflects those bicultural values. In therapy, I use a strength-based approach, drawing tools from different types of therapy. My goal is to empower my clients and help them learn coping strategies, find both solutions and acceptance and develop self compassion and resilience.
