Don’t give up on your relationship.
Another screaming match with your partner just ended. You’re not even sure what it was about this time. Lately, you can’t seem to be around each other without it turning into a fight. It wasn’t always this way. There was a time when your relationship was rewarding and fulfilling. But something changed. Now, you spend all of your time just trying to avoid arguments. You want desperately to reconnect with the person you fell in love with, but it feels like you’re speaking different languages. You’re not ready to give up on this relationship, but things just keep getting worse. It all feels so hopeless. There must be some other way.

I have a unique understanding of the Asian American experience especially with acculturation issues between immigrant parents and their kids raised in America, interracially married couples, and couples and partners with different levels of acculturation.
My goal is to guide people restore their self-esteem as a competent individual, build a healthy relationship with others, especially with their spouse and children, and promote lasting change that brings them to feel loved, capable, and alive. It may be a long journey, but by the end of the journey I have seen people moving away from unhealthy vicious cycle of the past and creating more desirable relationships with each other.

The therapeutic relationship is important, so call me for a complimentary phone consultation to see if my approach is a good fit for you.
Do you lack emotional connectedness with your loved ones or suffer from anxiety or depression that inhibits you from forming genuine relationships? You are not alone! Every individual at their core, values intimate, personal relationships with their significant others, family members, and friends. People often come to therapy because they struggle or experience unhappiness in their lives and are unaware of underlying symptoms such as depression, anxiety, shame, low self-esteem, low motivation, or emotional and psychological distress. I can help you address and move through those issues to create a purposeful and meaningful life.
