Message

At Northwestern Mindanao State College of Science and Technology, I counsel students facing anxiety, depression, and stress, and provide support during acute psychological distress. I also develop mental health awareness campaigns and facilitate workshops on common student challenges.

At Powervision EAP, I designed and delivered wellness sessions and workshops for project teams, and provided crisis support during critical incidents. At Zamboanga del Sur Provincial Government College, I designed student guidance programs and conducted counseling for academic, emotional, and behavioral concerns.

My work also includes providing remote counseling through Safe Space and delivering capacity-building workshops for NGO partners through Central Visayas Network of NGOs (CENVISNET). I hold a Ph.D. in Psychology, Major in Clinical Psychology, and am a Registered Guidance Counselor.
