I am a second-generation Vietnamese/Chinese American man and an online therapist in California. I understand the unique weight of family expectations and the cultural silence that often surrounds mental health. My lived experience is the foundation of my practice. I show up with genuine curiosity and cultural sensitivity to help you feel truly seen, heard, and understood.
My approach is fundamentally relational and trauma-informed. I believe healing happens in safe connection. I blend Narrative, EFT, Psychodynamic, and IFS to deeply tailor our work to your needs. Whether you are navigating relationship challenges, cultural tensions, or a desire for self-understanding, we will explore the roots of your challenges to create lasting change.
The first session is focused on building a safe connection. We will clarify what brings you to therapy now and explore your goals. We will gently touch on your story, including intergenerational dynamics and cultural identity, to understand the full context of feeling stuck. You will leave with a clear sense of what our collaborative work will look like moving forward.
