Great to meet you!

I love to help people going through challenges feel better, learn to cope better, and know that they are not alone. I value guiding and empowering clients to dive deep into their experiences to gain insights that target and heal problems at their root to gain relief. I may use EMDR, CBT, mindfulness, and a psychodynamic perspective (exploring the impact of your childhood and hidden aspects of yourself on current challenges) and will cater the therapy experience to your unique needs.

My approach to therapy

I specialize in issues related to the immigrant and Asian American experience, as well as parent/adult child conflict, intergenerational trauma, attachment wounding, perfectionism/imposter syndrome, depression, anxiety, and burnout.

What you can expect from me

The first (intake) session is a chance to get to know each other and an opportunity for me to hear your story. We will talk about what brought you into therapy, and what you hope and expect to gain from it. I will also invite you to ask any questions you may have about me and the therapy process. Importantly, the session will provide a safe and supportive space to begin our work together.
