I never imagined how powerful EMDR could be. This is only the fourth time I’ve used this technique. My client came in very upset from work, so stressed that she couldn’t talk to her customers.

After the EMDR session, she said she could no longer feel the negative emotions connected to the upsetting event. She felt better right away. I hope she continues to improve until our next session.

Thank you very much, Charlene Lucas, for the knowledge you shared, and to Dr. Abby Capay, my partner during EMDR training. 😊

Don’t rob your kids of their future.

Let them wash the dishes, sweep the floor, cook, or run errands.
These small chores build responsibility, discipline, and strength.

If you do everything for them today, they’ll depend on others tomorrow.
Raise children who can stand on their own. 💪🏽

Looking back, life was never easy. On days without school, I sold newspapers just to help my family. I still played basketball, rode my bike, and played chess but most of the time, my dreams had to wait because survival came first. (Nami hampang pro dason lang na)

Now, when I see my son playing basketball, riding his bike, and enjoying chess, my heart feels healed. I don’t force him, I don’t pressure him. He does it because he loves it, and I support him because I love him.

Every shot he makes, every ride he takes, every move on the chessboard, it’s like my inner child is smiling again. (Number 1 fan mo ko Son)

I may not have lived all my dreams, but through my son, I see them alive. He is not only following his passion, he is also healing the little boy in me.

Son, keep going. Your joy is my greatest victory. 🏀🚴‍♂️♟️❤️

Mental Health Isn’t One-Click Diagnosis

Mental health professionals use a holistic approach. We consider neurology, environment, behavior, and social influences to truly understand a person. That’s why self-diagnosis through Google or AI like ChatGPT is strongly discouraged.

Mental health is complex, and accurate diagnosis requires training, compassion, and insight from multiple disciplines. 🧠

Talking to one client can already be very tiring. Two in a day is just right for me.

Psychotherapy is not just a simple talk, it's a heart to heart talk between two people, where both open up, feel weak, but also start to heal.

I pray for more mental health advocates who will help close the big gap in mental health care.

We need more kind hearts, listening ears, and helping hands. 💚

We’re not meant to go through life alone. 🤝💛

Some people forget how important it is to have others to talk to and lean on. They miss the real reason why we’re here, to connect, to care, and to support each other.

You were made for a purpose. That purpose includes helping, loving, and being there for others.

So today, take time to:

🌱 Check on someone.
💬 Listen.
🤗 Be kind.
🧡 Be a friend.

We grow stronger together.

Hurt people often hurt others, especially the ones they love most.
Many traumatized parents unintentionally pass down the pain they never got to heal from.

But it doesn’t have to stay that way.

You can be the one who breaks the cycle.
Heal, not just for yourself, but for your children, so they don’t have to carry wounds that were never theirs to begin with.

Let the pain end with you. Not pass through you.

A simple but touching surprise gift from my former interns, Sir Owen Ian Israel Juntanuelo , Miss Bel, and UNOR interns during the seminar yesterday. Thank you so much for your thoughtful gesture. 🥹💐

Small acts like this give us more strength to continue what we are doing — helping and training more future mental health advocates. 💚

One participant even told me that the seminar fee was not expensive. I explained that this seminar was not made to earn money, but to reach out, help, and inspire more people to become mental health advocates — to support those who are hurting and in need. 🫶

“Those who died yesterday had plans for today. And those who died today had plans for tomorrow.

Do not take life for granted. In a blink of an eye, everything can change.

Forgive often and live with all of your heart. You may never know when you may not have the chance again.”
