Psychotherapy · NYC
Radical and relational multicultural therapy for adults, couples and families.
About me
As a Filipino bicultural therapist, former artist, and parent, I understand what it can mean to live in the in-between, navigating clashing cultures, identities, life stages, and ways of being. I work with a range of artists, creative professionals, activists, and others navigating personal or professional transitions. My practice offers space to explore the experiences that have shaped you so you can develop a more grounded sense of your place in the world.

My approach
I focus less on any specific set of techniques and more on attention to the present moment, to your past, and to the world you move through.
We examine problems at their personal and systemic roots. Rather than asking you to separate your struggles from the world around you, let’s make room for the larger forces affecting your life, including migration, race, culture, gender, family expectations, and systems of power.
Healing happens through connection. A trusting therapeutic relationship offers space to feel seen as your full self and to relate to others with greater freedom and openness. This can help you feel less alone, move through change with intention, and create a life that feels meaningful and connected.
Rooted in culture, history, and lived experience. Together, we can look beyond symptoms to understand how your relationships, family, culture, and social world have shaped you. This can help you recognize patterns that no longer serve you while honoring how they once helped you survive, adapt, or belong.
