You're too fucking old to not have your life figured out. But lately, you've started to wonder if it's just normal to feel like a failure, if it's even possible for you to have a relationship that makes you want to smile. When you show up as yourself the way the latest article tells you to, all you hear is that you're too much and nothing changes. Now you just find yourself shutting down, keeping as out of the way as possible. You’re tired of feeling scared that your partner will leave. Or even worse, that they stay and you’ll be stuck feeling this way forever. Breathing deeply and stretching into your skin feels impossible.

Do you experience intense stress, worry, or panic? Does anxiety hold you back from pursuing your personal and professional goals? I can help you learn strategies to overcome your fears and help you live a more meaningful and fulfilling life. I enjoy working with clients who are struggling with worry, stress, or perfectionism, as well as specific anxiety disorders such as Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Panic Disorder, and Social Anxiety Disorder. I also treat Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors (e.g. hair pulling, skin picking). Working with parents experiencing anxiety or OCD in the perinatal period is also one of my specialties.

Stressful encounters, complex life experience, academic stressors and more, can often cause college students, teens, and children to struggle with feelings of anxiety, depression, inadequacy, body image issues, and negative self-talk. In my career as a licensed marriage and family therapist, I have had the opportunity to work closely with clients struggling with these kinds of challenges both at school and at home. My goal as a therapist is to help my clients thrive and flourish by equipping them with the tools and guidance they need to navigate daily stressors, grow their self care, and improve coping skills.

As a therapist, I aim to help my clients navigate challenges, build resilience, and develop strengths. Everyone’s experience is unique, and my goal is to meet clients where they are, with empathy and tailored approaches that align with their individual needs and goals.

I believe that therapy is a place where incredible growth and change become attainable. In my view, the challenging process of change often involves learning how to approach uncomfortable experiences, in the service of living the life that you want to live. For me, this process is collaborative and guided by my client’s values, in addition to my clinical expertise. There is no greater honor than being the person to support you in reaching your goals and building the life that you want to live!

Are you struggling with intimacy or sexual concerns and not sure how to improve the situation? Sex therapy is a form of therapy intended to help individuals and couples resolve sexual difficulties, such as performance anxiety or relationship problems. It’s normal for clients to feel anxious when seeing a sex therapist, especially for the first time. Many people have trouble talking about sex at all, so discussing it with me as a stranger may feel awkward. I provide a safe space in exploring your sexual concerns, reducing the pain, and reaching desirable goals. I am one of the few Asian American AASECT certified therapists across US.

You are a high preforming athlete that is in a constant state of stress. Assignments are piling up, parents are on your case about you name it and the one place you find peace (your sport) feels like a burden and not a refuge. You aren't "locked in" and feel a roller coaster of emotions: deep sadness, isolation, anxiety, unmotivated and lost. You present to everyone that you are “fine” but everything inside you says that you aren’t. My name is Megan and I help depressed, anxious and burned out athletes reclaim their life and their joy for the sports they play.

Relationships can be hard. Partners struggle with communication, conflicting parenting styles, sexual expressions... Life's challenges, hurtful fights, history of trauma or infidelity make it difficult to sustain trust and closeness. How can you create desired connections, and not lose yourself in the process? How can you be true both to self and to your partnership? I invite you to explore these questions together with empathy and curiosity, letting go of habitual judgments, self-deprecation, and shame. I work with individuals, couples, and families. Both traditional and alternative lifestyles are welcome, and no issue is a taboo.

As a 1st/2nd generation immigrant or BIPOC, you’ve learned to be a chameleon, to mask and alter yourself in order to gain acceptance and survive. You’re one person around family and a completely different person at work or around friends. You want to be in relationship with others but haven’t been able to find a way to honor your own needs as well. Call it people-pleasing, or call it survival mode. Either way, altering yourself may have worked for you in the past, but it doesn’t feel like it’s working anymore.

As a clinical psychologist, I specialize in major life stressors, such as relationship concerns, the transition to college, career shifts, physical health conditions, loss of loved ones, and adjustment to parenthood. My clients seek meaningful change and benefit from insight, tools, and strategies for coping with challenging emotions and interpersonal situations. I utilize an integrative, individually tailored approach, drawing from cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic, internal family systems, and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT).
