Do you often feel like you’re holding it together on the outside while feeling anxious, exhausted, or stuck on the inside? You might be the responsible one, at work, in your family, or in relationships, while still carrying things you haven’t had space to process. Even if you’ve tried therapy and learned coping tools, something may still feel unresolved.

I work with young adults, including many from Asian backgrounds, who want more than symptom relief. My approach helps you understand why certain patterns keep showing up and how past experiences continue to affect you. I use EMDR, IFS, and DBT in a grounded, practical way so therapy feels useful and meaningful.

Sessions with me are collaborative and honest. We’ll move at a pace that feels safe while addressing emotions, processing experiences, and practicing boundaries without guilt. My goal is to help you feel more steady, confident, and like yourself. If this resonates, you can schedule a free 15-minute consultation.

I integrate a mix of evidence-based and holistic approaches, tailoring therapy to your unique needs. My main tools include:

• EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing): A structured yet deeply healing way to process trauma, anxiety, and difficult life experiences.
• Internal Family Systems (IFS): Helps you connect with different “parts” of yourself, fostering self-compassion and inner balance.
• DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy): Builds practical skills for managing emotions, tolerating stress, and staying mindful.
• CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy): Helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and shift behaviors that aren’t serving you.
• Mindfulness & Holistic Practices: Encourages awareness of the mind-body connection, grounding, and resilience.

Together, we’ll draw from these approaches to find the tools and strategies that feel right for you.

Clients can expect to leave sessions feeling understood, supported, and empowered. Together, we’ll develop practical tools to manage emotions, set healthy boundaries, and build resilience. Over time, you’ll gain greater self-awareness, confidence, and a stronger connection with yourself, helping you create meaningful, lasting change.
