Growing and pursuing personal development can sometimes be tricky! I specialize in addressing mental health issues stemming from self-worth and emotional needs. My approach focuses on helping clients achieve more differentiation of self, independence, and self-realization, where they define their existence without external interference. I also work with clients who want to establish healthy boundaries. An overly enmeshed boundary can lead to a loss of self, while a powerful one may hinder emotional expression and connection with others.

Therapy is an act of courage and self-advocacy to explore the uniqueness and depths of the human experience. It is an act inspired by curiosity and growth, aimed to guide you through your evolution to become whoever you want to be. It is a tool for humans to utilize as a way to explore the depths of who they are, work towards a narrative that aims to accept themselves as who they are, and work toward evolving into the vision of who they hope to be. I believe that most clients have what they're looking for when they walk through the doors. Therapy is a tool used to excavate and nurture what they already possess.

Dealing with hopelessness, anxiety, and other stressors in daily life can be difficult and sometimes unmanageable. I work with individuals, couples, children, adolescents, and families on coping with and understanding these stressors, as well as managing and overcoming them. My goal is to establish trust and working relationships to educate on the impact in mental health; how to manage stressors, and identify preventative techniques to address those issues.

Asian Therapists
Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
A culturally sensitive therapist would be respectful and considerate of different groups, with regard to race, sexual orientation, gender, and other factors that are important to an individual. These considerations can help a client feel understood as well as validated. While some people think highlighting race could promote stereotypes and bias, more understanding and knowledge about cultural differences is a positive for a healthy therapeutic alliance.
How can I recognize an effective Asian therapist?
You can discern a lot by asking how familiar the potential therapist is with different cultures, as well as asking how they might address issues related to identity, values, and beliefs. Also inquire about their education, as well as any particular training they may have completed, such as cultural sensitivity or diversity and inclusion programs.
What if the therapist does not have my exact background?
The therapist may not share a client’s exact background, but the therapist may have plenty of hands-on experience as well as the sensitivity needed for therapeutic progress. Their sensitivity to different populations will help the client feel accepted and comfortable in sharing their concerns and difficulties.
How might I inquire about a therapist's experience with Asian clients?
A therapist with an Asian background may have experience within their community, as well as broader cultural sensitivity. Ask the potential therapist whether they've worked with individuals who share your background. If they have not worked with similar clients, they may well know someone who has such experience.
Who is included in Psychology Today's directory of Asian therapists?
The directory of Asian therapists includes professionals who have shared their ethnicity in their profiles. Psychology Today uses this information to assist clients in finding a therapist who can provide a cultural match. However, not all therapists choose to disclose their ethnicity in their profiles, and they may not appear in search results for this reason; also, when the number of therapists identified as Asian is limited, the directory will also show therapists with comprehensive experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
