Ryan Dalusag LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
You are not alone. It feels completely isolating to struggle with heavy emotions like depression or anxiety, but you don’t have to do it yourself - I am available to help you navigate through it. As a Filipino-American queer male, my practice is geared towards helping individuals that struggle with identity, lingering traumas, or fear and worry about their future especially those within the Asian-American Pacific Islander (AAPI) and LGBTQ+ communities. Seeking help and talking about some of our darkest and most difficult moments can be really challenging. Wherever you are in your journey, I would be honored to walk alongside you.

Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
As the child of a Holocaust survivor, working with multigenerational trauma has been a powerful experience, both personally and professionally. I know first-hand that healing can be achieved through therapy with someone who understands the depth and complexity of inherited family trauma.

Pre-Licensed Professional, AMFT, APCC
Is anxiety and overwhelm leaving you feeling trapped and diminished? Do you find yourself endlessly analyzing every decision, only to doubt yourself afterward? Are you constantly chasing an unattainable standard of perfection? Do you feel resentful in your relationships, struggling to have your needs met? You don’t have to navigate these challenges alone.
In my practice, I craft personalized plans tailored to the unique needs of each client. I focus on mindfulness techniques to bring awareness to the self-limiting beliefs we've internalized because we can't change what we're not aware of. Through a combination of talk therapy and Brainspotting, I assist clients in overcoming anxious thought patterns and past traumas, silencing their inner critics, and stepping into a more serene and empowered life.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I build my practice on the foundation of respecting client autonomy. I may know therapy, but only you are the expert on you. Respecting the client's right to choose their care and how they best receive support is my highest priority.
