Great to meet you!

Hi there! I am an Asian/Korean American woman and a first-generation immigrant. I am passionate about helping women trapped in cycles of perfectionism, people-pleasing, or complex trauma to reconnect with themselves.

My approach to therapy

I take an integrative approach to therapy, with a strong emphasis on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Psychodynamic Therapy. DBT supports the balance between acceptance and change, while psychodynamic work helps uncover the deeper roots of long-standing patterns and behaviors.

What you can expect from me

Our therapeutic journey will be fully personalized to your values, personality, social identities, interests, history, and goals. My goal is to create a welcoming space where you feel safe and empowered, no matter where you are in your healing journey.
