Life can bring various stress and challenges, and our growth may be bumpier than we would like. Therapy can offer a space to step outside of your physically and mentally busy life to focus on yourself and important interpersonal relationships. As an Asian therapist in the U.S., I see many Asian and Asian American clients and enjoy working with people from various cultural backgrounds. Issues around cultural adjustment and identities are often addressed in therapy. I also assist racial/cultural couples in identifying and communicating about their cultural differences.

I have a LMFT and LMHC in Massachusetts. I have primarily worked with young to mid-age professionals, graduate students, and college students. People are often dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, and interpersonal issues. Some are also trying to overcome and better deal with their past traumas while moving through their day-to-day lives.

My style is interactive and empathic. I view individuals and issues in relation to people’s environment and history, Narrative, ACT, and IFS approaches are also used in sessions. My hope is to provide a safe space for my clients to deepen their understanding of their issues, explore ways to deal with them, and feel lighter, empowered, and hopeful.

I provide a 15min free consultation first before you schedule the intake appointment. When we meet for the first session (or two), I gather information about your your presenting concerns and challenges as well as your strengths to expand. We decide the frequency of sessions then to meet your needs.
