About US
Journey to Wellness & Healing
My Story
A little tidbit about me. I am a first-generation Filipina American, born and raised in the vibrant city of San Francisco. Though I once ventured away, it is true that you leave heart in San Francisco. The City’s rhythm called me back – and now, it’s where I planted my roots and where I was my three children. Outside of my professional, married and parenting life, you’ll often find me on a new adventure, exploring new eateries, strolling through urban walks, enjoying a cup of coffee with a friend or two, or glistening under the sparkle of the gym lights. Wherever I am, guaranteed you’ll see me with a cup of coffee, scribbling in my journal, or with a good read in hand.
Education
I have been trained in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TFCBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and in October 2022, I look forward to add Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT). I would view my therapeutic approach as an integrated approach. I believe we are unique individuals and therapy should be tailored and not a one size fits all design. I have extensive training in the above modalities, however I do not limit my practice to them.
Additionally, I offer clinical supervision to associates working towards licensure.
Membership: California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists (CAMFT), EMDRIA, Board of Behavioral Sciences
I am licensed to practice therapy in California.
I’ve spent years helping individuals heal.
Journey to Wellness and Healing is my passion project: a private practice where I help individuals navigate struggles, transitions, and emotional challenges. I’ve always been drawn to stories of healing and transformation. My mission is to walk alongside those in transition, offering guidance, support, and a compassionate presence as they find their way forward.
