Life can be an overwhelming experience when the factors that are meant to aid and protect us also become overwhelmed. Ideally, challenges and adversities can be faced with the help of a person's own coping mechanisms and helpful understanding of the environment they are in. When the difficulties of life become too much to handle, it can seem like there's no way forward. At such times, a guide or teacher can help provide pathways that may not have been so easily seen before. Through counseling, clients can continue on their path forward on their journey called life through the help provided by therapists. As a counselor, I enjoy helping clients find their footing again through the difficult moments on the pathway of their life. I utilize a combination of cognitive and experiential approaches to help clients have a better understanding of their experiences and themselves to develop knowledge, insights, and skills that can allow them to meet life's challenges. I'd like to invite clients to reach out and discover the possibilities in the horizon. Life can have many different suprises and challenges, which I have come to understand through my experiences as a veteran of the US Air Force, and as a Filipino immigrant and the struggles to survive and integrate. Let me help you continue your journey with less worries!
