As a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, I work with individuals struggling with overwhelming emotions to find more effective ways to manage their distress and engage in healthy self-expression. I especially enjoy helping adolescents and young adults explore their sense of identity and find meaningful roles in their communities.
I earned my doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology from the California School of Professional Psychology, an APA-accredited graduate program at Alliant International University. During my academic career, I worked with individuals and couples experiencing a wide range of difficulties, including anxiety and mood disorders, psychosis, family and relationship conflicts, and trauma. I completed my internship at AACI (Asian Americans for Community Involvement), a community mental health clinic in San Jose, CA, where I gained additional experience working with refugees and asylees as well as substance use among teens. Due to high rates of self-injurious behaviors within the communities I serve, I sought out and received extensive training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, an evidence-based treatment shown to effectively address a wide range of mental health conditions.
While I enjoyed the food and atmosphere of the bay area, I returned to the warmer beaches of San Diego and have been in private practice here ever since. I focus on individual and group therapy, as well as psychological evaluations. Through a culturally sensitive lens that incorporates understanding past relationships and behavioral patterns, my goal is to help my clients gain clarity of the obstacles hindering their personal growth and find a path forward that aligns with their personal values. Outside of direct service, I conduct research, presentations, and trainings on Filipino mental health.
