Hi, I'm Dom.

Welcome. I’m the founder of Dalisay Soul. Dalisay is a Tagalog word meaning pure, honest, and sincere, and reflects what I offer: a therapy space for your authentic self. It represents the parts of ourselves beneath survival, beneath expectations, and beneath learned patterns.

Dalisay Soul emerged from my ongoing journey of clinical training and self-discovery. Along the way, I noticed that growth isn't about becoming someone new. It's about returning to ourselves. As I learn new things, shed old patterns, and grow overtime, I simultaneously find myself building a life that feels more abundant and aligned, more meaningful, and more me. This experience has shown me that what hurts also reveals what matters. Being with my pain unlocked my power, my worries unlocked my wonder, and my wonder unlocked my purpose. This journey is what inspired Dalisay Soul.

Dalisay Soul is for those who care deeply or carry too much. For those who’ve been hurt yet still choose strength and love. For those longing to feel more connected to themselves, their relationships, their bodies, their life, or their purpose. My hope is to create a grounding space to navigate struggle, explore dreams, and nurture inner peace.

Outside of being a therapist, I’m a regular gal. I'm a second-generation eldest daughter to Filipino immigrant parents, dog mom, creative, sound healer, empath, and Virgo that enjoys writing poetry, painting, singing karaoke, reading, walking barefoot in the grass, smelling flowers and incense, laying at the beach, laughing with loved ones, and searching for small moments that feel like magic.

Thank you for being here. I hope you find something here that feels like home.
