Psychologist
Specialised support for 
Anxiety, Depression, Stress Management

Kia ora and Kumusta! I am a Filipino-American Health Psychologist based in Ōtautahi/Christchurch, and am privileged to call Aotearoa home for the last 12 years. As a Health Psychologist I specialise in helping people cope with physical health challenges as well as foster positive health behaviours (e.g. healthy eating, increase physical activity, improve sleep, adherence to medicines). I am passionate about helping people improve their wellbeing using evidence-based strategies. I have a variety of experience working with physical injury and chronic illness. I have specialist knowledge in burn injuries, persistent pain, cancer, and dermatology. I started the first and only dermatology psychology service at Counties Manukau in Aotearoa. Other special interests include clinical supervision for psychologists, medical staff, and working with BIPOC regarding identity and general wellbeing.
