I enjoy working with bisexual & pansexual folks, partners, lovers, friends, and those seeking more pleasure & joy in their every day.
In a culture that equates your productivity to your self-worth, it can be a challenge to feel comfortable and guilt-free when you choose to take care of yourself. I reject the cultural beliefs that shame us and try to force us to endure, rather than enjoy. Seeking help is a show of strength, there is no shame in it, and you shouldn’t have to “tough it out” on your own or “just get by”. Whatever it is about your relationships, connections, or experiences with intimacy that brought you here deserves attention. I’m interested in helping you feel more like yourself, more alive, and more at ease in the world.

I'm a highly experienced psychologist who specializes in women's issues, LGBTQ+ community, especially bisexual and pansexual individuals, BIPOC folks, Asian Americans, concerns with sex, dating, and marriage, anxiety, social anxiety, family conflicts, body image, and eating disorders.
I believe that it takes great courage to take that first step in reaching out for help, whether you are coming from a place of sadness, anxiety, loneliness, grief, or confusion. It can also feel scary to look inward and honor your truth and to let your "true colors" shine. Together, we can process and sort through the pain and help you find meaning, clarity, healing, joy, and connection.

I work with lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, nonbinary, gender nonconforming, two spirit, queer people, their friends and allies.
Live your truth. Follow your bliss. Do you. Sounds simple, right? Except that, all too often, we convince ourselves that who we are is not enough, that what we want is undeserved. So we stifle our talents, ignore our truth and deny our deepest desires. Before we know it, we’re living someone else’s life, satisfying everyone’s expectations but our own. All to earn the love and acceptance we don’t feel worthy of otherwise. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

As a queer and bisexual, nonbinary femme, 2nd generation Korean American, I specialize in working with those who identify as LGBTQ+, BIPOC, adult children of immigrants, trans, nonbinary, and gender expansive. Do you feel overly responsible for or concerned about others' feelings and expectations, so much so that you ignore your own? Do you question how you should feel or why you do or don't feel a certain way, and then find yourself being pulled farther from knowing what you actually want? Maybe it's hard to know the answer to, "What do I want? How do I feel? What do I need?"

Embracing identity and relationship transitions is my specialty. I work with Bisexual, Pansexual or Fluid sexual attractions. As well as Trans/GNC, Open Relationships, Polyamory, CNM and Disability, including Deaf/HH. If there's a part of your identity that's expanding/changing, and you want to incorporate it more into your everyday life, that uncharted territory can feel scary. Instead of "coming out", I'll show you how to "invite people in". You might be seeking more human connection or community; we're going to tap into how you can achieve that. I offer Therapy (to CA residents) or Coaching (worldwide) depending on your needs.

I specialize working with trans, queer, bisexual, lesbian, questioning, and gay people of color (Black, Indigenous, Asian, Pacific Islander, Latino/a/x/e, Multiracial/Biracial), providing gender- and queer-affirming care. I can provide letters of support for gender-affirming surgery. I work well with folks who are self-aware but sometimes "to a fault." You find feelings hard but really want to work on "feel the feelings!" You are willing to take risks and be real when something is hard. You want a change but feel stuck, and are down to try both new and old things. You want to be a better person/friend/partner/coworker/child/etc.

I am passionate about supporting teens and adults in their healing journeys of grief, depression, and trauma. As an Asian American immigrant, bisexual, and first-generation college student myself, I also feel deeply about the unique challenges and stressors of code-switching from one culture to another in order to survive. If you feel othered, devastated, or losing control of your life, I offer you a safe and compassionate space to navigate complex emotions, find support within yourself and your community, and experience transformation to feel balanced and whole.

LGBT Affirmative Therapy celebrates the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer experience and addresses the negative consequences of growing up in a culture that suppresses and fears that experience.
I am delighted to be in private practice in West Hollywood. In addition to this work, I am a primary therapist in agencies where I treat clients with co-occurring substance abuse, food and sex addictions. My training includes work at Being Alive, an HIV/AIDS service organization, helping clients heal from chemical dependence, trauma, and co-occurring health challenges using LGBT Affirmative Therapy. During my time as an intern, I worked at Promises Malibu, Breathe Life Healing Centers, Refuge Recovery Centers and the Narrative Counseling Center. I have a Masters in Psychology with an LGBT Specialization from Antioch University.

Are you looking for more than symptom management? Do you want deep, vital, and long-lasting change? Then you’ve found your place. My passion is supporting you to become your most authentic self. Helping you to heal your traumas, fears, and pain which often prevents you from being exactly who you want to be. My favorite sessions are when a client and I get to look back on our time together and we can track just how much they have grown and changed and how much happier they are now. I often joke that I’m trying to work myself out of a job. I want you to have the insight, skills, awareness, and practice to live a fuller life.

If you are seeking help for your relationship, it's probably because things feel distant, disconnected, or even out of control. You feel like you can't communicate no matter how hard you try. You are tired of arguing. You want to feel close again but don't know where to begin. Maybe you don't recognize yourselves after you had children and day-to-day family life feels overwhelming and joyless. Maybe you've experienced a betrayal and are so filled with sadness and rage you don't recognize yourself anymore. You want to fix things but are afraid of the pain. Perhaps you made a mistake and need help regaining your partner's trust.
