I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with over 22 years of experience in the mental health field. I’ve had the privilege of working in a variety of settings, including social services as a child abuse investigator, outpatient counseling with children, adolescents, and families, inpatient psychiatric care, clinical leadership roles, and doctoral-level research on family caregiver stress and coping, which I later published.

I hold an Associate of Arts and Sciences, a Bachelor of Science in College and Community Counseling, a Master of Science in Clinical Psychology, and a Ph.D. in Psychology and Philosophy.

I work with adolescents ages 14 and up as well as adults, and I specialize in supporting people through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, stress, codependency, domestic violence, chronic health conditions, mood concerns, parenting stress, life transitions, and PTSD. I also have experience working with veterans and individuals dealing with complex and overwhelming life circumstances.

My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where people feel understood and not judged.

Mental health issues may be difficult to discuss with loved ones, especially if there are cultural barriers. As an Asian American, I experienced the phenomenon of feeling like I had two separate identities. I often felt like an outsider as I questioned “who am I?” While there are many cultural barriers we must face with mental health, you don’t have to face them alone! I can help you navigate your experiences with cultural identification, family communication, children’s mental health, (e.g. depression, anxiety, and/or behavioral concern), parenting, and diversity.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Fairfax

Finding the right therapist in Fairfax, VA starts with getting clear on what kind of support you need. Whether you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, ADHD, or trauma, choosing a licensed provider who specializes in your area of concern can make a real difference. Common provider types include licensed professional counselors (LPCs), licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), psychologists, and psychiatrists — each with different training and scope of practice. If you need medication management alongside talk therapy, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner may be the right fit.

With 3095 mental health providers across Northern Virginia — from Fairfax to Falls Church, Reston, and beyond — narrowing your options can take time. Consider what matters most: a provider's specialty, whether they offer in-person or virtual sessions, and whether their schedule works with yours. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their approach and decide if they're someone you'd feel comfortable working with.

Therapy in the Fairfax area can be expensive without coverage, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
