As an Asian immigrant who made the US my home in young adulthood, I bring a rich blend of cultural insight and linguistic skills in English, Tagalog, and intermediate Spanish to my role as a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). With over 20 years of healthcare experience—spanning OB-GYN, geriatric care, critical care, and acute management—I’ve witnessed patients and families at their lowest and highest moments, fueling my passion to deliver safe, impactful mental health care that I see as the bedrock of resilience.

Grace Psychiatry was born from my vision to dismantle the stigma surrounding mental health, inspired by a loved one’s resilience through proper treatment after facing mental illness. My mission is to empower patients to reclaim their strength with personalized guidance, support, and, when needed, medication—drawing on my extensive experience and physician collaboration to ensure no one walks their journey alone, connecting them to specialized care if required.
