About Me
Hello, I’m Ysa (my nickname). I offer a safe and supportive space where you can freely share your thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. Life can be full of challenges, and you don’t have to face them alone. Kung nararamdaman mo na mabigat ang pinagdadaanan mo ngayon, huwag kang mag-alala, hindi mo kailangang harapin ang lahat nang mag-isa.
I am a Registered Guidance Counselor with over 16 years of experience in counseling. I hold a Master of Science in Guidance and Counseling and am currently pursuing my PhD in Counseling, a journey that continues to deepen my understanding of how to best support individuals in their healing and growth. Over the years, I have supported students, young adults, and individuals as they navigated challenges in their studies, careers, relationships, and personal well-being.
Sometimes we go through moments that feel too heavy, whether in school, work, family, relationships, or even within ourselves. Here, you’ll find a listening ear and an understanding heart. In our sessions, we will not just talk, we will explore, reflect, and work together to find approaches that fit your needs.
Together, we will:
- ✔️ Understand your emotions, thoughts, and experiences more deeply.
- ✔️ Co-create a counseling plan that truly fits your situation and goals.
- ✔️Develop practical coping strategies to help you manage difficulties and find clarity.
- ✔️ Build resilience, growth, and healing, at your own pace.
We will journey together - helping you bloom, heal and grow, finding your strength, your peace, and your direction in life. While I can understand simple Ilocano (though I do not speak it), I provide counseling mainly in English and Tagalog, so you can comfortably express yourself.
Nandito ako upang samahan ka sa iyong paglalakbay. Hindi man madali ang proseso, posible ang kaginhawaan, pagbangon, at mas maliwanag na pananaw. Karapat-dapat kang marinig, maunawaan, at tulungan.
