Thank you for taking a moment to visit my website. I am passionate about supporting my clients on their journey toward personal and professional growth. My primary objective as a clinician is to help them raise their awareness regarding thoughts and behaviors that impede their growth and then to join with them in creating clear pathways toward change. While nothing is more important to me than establishing a warm relationship within a nurturing environment where clients feel comfortable telling the truth and taking risks, I place equal importance on compassionately challenging them to take as much ownership as possible.

I am a licensed psychologist with 20 years of expertise in providing psychological evaluations to evaluate for a multitude of concerns including learning disabilities, emotional difficulties, and adjustment problems. I have training with ADHD and learning disorders, developmental delays, and severe behavioral and emotional disorders. Additionally, I have received specialized training in the assessment and treatment of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorders. I currently evaluate individuals of multiple ages for problems with depression, anxiety, ADHD, and general emotional concerns. I am accepting TESTING clients at this time.

I have been a clinically licensed social worker for 13 years. I truly enjoy helping people learn tools and techniques to help themselves through difficult situations or times in their lives. I believe people are the experts in their lives. I’m simply here to help them maneuver through the difficult parts. I also understand that talking with a stranger about your personal life situations can be scary and feel strange. I am happy to proceed as slowly as necessary to help you feel comfortable and safe to earn your trust. I look forward to working with you.

I am empathetic in my approach and believe that when provided with the appropriate knowledge and support, individuals are able to create the life they desire. Modalities utilized: Solution Focused Brief (SFBT), Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), and Mindfulness-Based (MBCT).

Do you feel that you have to act like everything in your life is perfect when inside you are feeling overwhelming sadness, hopelessness, helplessness, or anxiety? Do you feel like getting out of bed every day is a struggle because your sadness keeps you from enjoying time with family and friends and putting on a “happy face” is just too difficult? Imagine waking up eager to take on life’s challenges, feeling confident that whatever problems you face, whether home, job or relationship, you have the ability to recognize and overcome them. Our past experiences can hinder us from living up to our potential.

I serve as a counselor to help men, women, couples, families, and teens find hope, healing, and growth. I see it as an honor and calling to come alongside of someone who needs help in discovering the way forward.

Do you struggle with feeling lost and alone? Overwhelmed and sad? Did your get up and go... got up and left (you!)? Do you put your needs at the bottom of the to-do list?

My communication style is reflective listening, person-centered, and compassion-based. There is a certain level of vulnerability and self-awareness that is admirable to be able to seek support for yourself when struggling with something significant in your life. My style is affirming, empowering, and open-minded. I believe it’s important to be open-minded, non-judgmental, and provide treatment that reflects integrity and respect. It would be my privilege to be that person for you and provide support along the way.

You have days when your thoughts keep racing over and over and over again in your mind. Sometimes, you just feel so anxious and miserable. You don't know what you can do to change things or to make the thoughts stop. Maybe you feel that nothing you do is ever good enough and you're plagued by "the shoulds". You know what I mean. "I should be a better partner, parent, friend, colleague. The list goes on and on. Our thoughts create our reality. And, today's adult thoughts are often the product of our childhood history.

There are a lot of thoughts about what therapy looks like. Luckily, therapy itself is becoming more understood, which is amazing since that's actually what therapy is- being understood. If you are looking for support and to be known, then I might be the right fit for you. I'm not here to bore you with unhelpful clinical language, in an attempt to psychoanalyze you. I'm here to connect, listen, and ultimately strive to understand you and your unique situation. Many people underestimate the power of being heard, and supported - exactly where you currently are in life.

Life is complex, with demands on you, your relationships, and your time causing stressors that make your personal and work life seem overwhelming. Headaches. Lack of sleep. No energy to spend time with loved ones. Maybe you’re not showing your best self to your spouse and are faced with the dreaded “We need to talk” conversation. You know that anxiety, depression, or past trauma is affecting your well-being, marriage, and meaningful relationships. It makes you feel as if you’ll never meet your own or others’ expectations or goals.

I use an approach where we identify your strengths and play on those. As an Asian American, I am particularly passionate about working with minorities and helping them weave their bicultural narrative. I believe that therapy should address the whole person, considering your inner world & culture. Therapy should be collaborative, with the client and therapist coming together to identify goals. It is a learning journey we will go on together. I will give you tools that you can take with you into your everyday life. 3 factors that guide how I practice– are unconditional positive regard, authenticity, and empathy.

Anxiety, depression, adversity and trauma can have a profound impact on our lives and in our relationships. If you are suffering alone, or not sure what to do, please believe there is hope for things to change. If you are considering counseling, it begins with a free phone consultation to get a sense of how comfortable you may be with the therapist before deciding to begin the intake process. When ready, we will begin a collaborative process to gain a deeper understanding of your concerns, the dynamics involved and your vision of change, while learning and practicing new ways of navigating life's challenges.

Life throws curve balls. You don't have to take them on alone. I believe in creating a safe environment to help you manage everything you are carrying. In addition to private practice, I have experience working in community behavioral health for 7 years and in a brief intervention virtual program for over 3 years, providing therapy to adolescents and adults. I have worked with clients with various diagnoses and those seeking assistance in self-esteem, relationships, life transitions, parenting, and grief and loss, among others.

As a parent, there's nothing worse than watching your child struggle. Standing by and watching their grades fall and their anxiety rise is excruciating, but nothing you've tried is making the situation better. Your child doesn't seem to know what's due or when, they are unorganized, have no plan for studying, lack effective study habits and skills, and have trouble disengaging from their phones. Communication is breaking down between you and your child and they seem unmotivated and apathetic toward school. You may also be questioning if your child is just being a typical moody teenager or if it's more serious. Are they depressed?
