I am a licensed clinical psychologist based in Seattle, WA. I specialize in evidence-based assessment and therapy for both children and adolescents. While I've spent much of my specialist practice at the intersection of ADHD and anxiety disorders, my generalist training has also prepared me to support those with sleep problems, depression, and adjustment issues across age groups. My evidence-based and culturally informed practice warmly welcomes individuals from underserved communities, including BIPOC, international students, and immigrants.
My therapeutic approach is developmental, collaborative, destigmatizing, and informed by social justice. I draw from years of specialized training in cognitive behavioral therapy and multicultural frameworks to support your thriving. I provide therapy in both English and Mandarin Chinese.
I welcome you to reach out to see if we could be a good fit for your goals. The fastest way to reach me is to send me an email. I offer a free 15-minute intro call.
