Individual
In individual therapy, we'll create a space to explore all parts of yourself. We’re talking messy parts, tender parts, complex parts, beautiful parts, resiliant parts, strange parts, the parts that never see the light of day (maybe especially those parts)- all of that. We’ll pull all of the metaphorical boxes out from under the bed together and figure out what we want to keep and what we want to toss- and even maybe what needs to be dusted off and put back on the shelf.
Drawing on existential, humanistic, and Gestalt approaches, I help you confront the realities of your life, take ownership of your choices, and cultivate deeper self-awareness. I also incorporate Parts Work and inner child work, helping you connect with and integrate the different aspects of yourself, including those that have been shut down or silenced by past experiences. With seven years in trauma settings, I also bring a systems-level perspective to untangle patterns, beliefs, and past experiences that are in the way of you becoming the person you want to be.
Grounded in the concept of the interconnectedness of all things- I help clients explore how they relate to themselves, others, and the world. Therapy with me is about leaning into change, embracing uncertainty, and becoming more of the person you want to be with more of the life you want to live. Whether you’re navigating trauma, depression, relational challenges, or self-exploration, I'll walk alongside you with insight, tools, and support as you uncover your meaning, figure yourself out, and move in the direction of growth.

Couples & Partner Systems
Oh! To love and be loved! Loving another human being is a stunning, awe-inspiring feature of being alive. And as a filipino stereotype embodied, I love love. So, working with relationships is both a passion and a joy.
I work with couples to uncover patterns, navigate conflict, and deepen connection. Especially when past trauma or relational dynamics get in the way. I also work with non-monogamous and polyamorous couples in non-traditional relationship structures, helping partners ethically navigate the unique challenges (and strengths!) inherent to non-normative love dynamics.
We’ll do our best to peel back the layers that disconnect you from one another to build intimacy. In my view, intimacy and trust is earned through genuine, loving (albeit difficult!!!) conflict. So we’ll lay it all out in the therapy room and sort through what we find to move towards a fulfilling expression of love, affection, and safety.
My trauma-informed, relational approach addresses both individual and systemic influences on your relationship. Together, we transform conflict into understanding, strengthen communication, and rewrite the story of your relationship in ways that feel safe, empowering, and satisfying.
