Great to meet you!

Hi there, my name is Angela. I am a Neurodivergent Asian-American therapist, and I am passionate about providing affirming, holistic mental health care. My intention in session is to provide a brave space for you to explore all parts of yourself, and to feel empowered in living more confidently and more authentically.

A bit about my approach to therapy

In our sessions, we will explore your thought and behavioral patterns, identify where the patterns are coming from, learn about the interpersonal roles you play in your life, and process painful feelings or experiences that are still impacting you. We will practice new approaches and communication strategies, and create a toolbox of coping skills. I use a combination of modalities: mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral therapy, interpersonal therapy, EMDR (eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy), and more. We will figure out an approach that best works for you.

What you can expect from our first session

As your therapist, I want to be there for you, to support you as you take on this healing journey. Together, we will improve how you handle stressful situations, communicate in relationships, and navigate different areas of your life. We will identify and let go of the patterns and roles that you do not need, and foster the values and goals that are important to you. However you want to grow, I want to help you get there.
