LET'S CONNECT
Depression, anxiety, and lack of self-confidence are signals that you might benefit from psychotherapy to understand the cause of your suffering. You can heal and feel better, and you don't need to suffer alone. Joy is possible, and I'm here to help.
As a Filipino-American and immigrant myself, I offer multilingual therapy to the immigrant population.
