Mini bio
How it started.
Riyan started the Your Millennial Psychologist Facebook page in 2016 to share what she was learning about psychology and mental health. In her own account, its growth during the pandemic showed how many Filipinos wanted accessible information to help them understand themselves.
Psychology in everyday life.
A registered psychologist and psychometrician, Riyan brings mental health education to social media, workshops and public conversations. Her official biography describes collaborations with UNICEF and UNDP, alongside work in industrial-organizational psychology and clinical practice.
Beyond the feed.
Her conversations also reach podcast audiences, including CONVOS @ Home and Generations. She helped build Glim, where she wrote the Glim Meter, a short self-reflection tool, and works on growth, partnerships and public relations.
