Hi I'm Michelle

I am a second-gen queer Filipina, and certified Brainspotting Therapist and Consultant. My lived experience with perfectionism and people-pleasing have significantly influenced my therapeutic practice and fueled my strong desire for healing. I work with people that belong to marginalized communities that struggle with identity, self esteem, and confidence issues expressed typically as anxious or depressive symptoms, as well as those that might have experienced developmental trauma.

“I was bringing home work stress and not able to really enjoy my time off. I knew I loved my job but was approaching burnout. Michelle helped me begin to separate the two again.”
