I am a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and earned my graduate degree from Yale University. Before becoming a nurse practitioner, I worked in inpatient psychiatry, psychiatric emergency care, trauma, and critical care. I work with teens and adults with concerns such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and other mood disorders. I also speak English, Cantonese, and Mandarin.
My approach is supportive, collaborative, and focused on your individual needs. I take time to understand your symptoms, concerns, and treatment goals. I may use CBT, supportive therapy, and motivational interviewing as part of your care. Together, we will build a treatment plan that feels realistic and manageable.
During the first visit, we will talk about what brought you in, your mental health history, medications, and your goals for treatment. I want you to feel comfortable asking questions and sharing your concerns. We will then discuss possible next steps and create a treatment plan together.
