I have over 30 years of experience as a therapist working with clients who struggle with trauma, life transitions, anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, relationship issues, and grief and loss. As an interpersonal and relational therapist, I view the relationship between client and therapist as integral in gaining a deep understanding of clients’ emotional experiences. By exploring important insights, this approach establishes a healing connection and allows the client to break repetitive, intergenerational patterns. I work to create an environment which helps to foster agency as well as the ability to work towards change.

Constantly struggling with food, body image, or weight shame is exhausting. It can feel like a broken record- the yo-yo diets, binge eating, feeling disconnected from your body, overwhelmed around food, feeling not enough and too much at the same time. You're over it. You're ready for things to feel easier- to reclaim your energy and to trust yourself more. Whether you're new to this place of questioning and frustration -OR- you already have a strong sense of self and body but could benefit from support navigating a world full of harmful body hierarchies, I'm so glad you're here.

In our work together my clients heal from within. Why? Because with deep core work, you will change old familiar brain paths into newly chosen authentic brain paths. You will experience breakthrough counseling with tools for life, attaining deep self love, developing new ways of thinking and feeling, being in charge of your brain, fearlessly listening within, learning helpful communication, and understanding choices from a new perspective. Over 20 years in private practice I designed about 250 exercises to help my clients heal. For couples, we do the same core work. All but one couple found renewed love.

I specialize in working with people feeling challenged by relationships, work, parenting (from pregnancy through empty nest), and aging, as well as people struggling with trauma, grief, and loss. I start from the position that past experiences and attachments have profound effects on our everyday lives, and our abilities to move forward. I have an interest in working with those who navigate multiple cultures and communities (through, for example, racial identity, class background, immigration, religion, gender, and sexuality), as well as those who work in education, healthcare, nonprofit, and creative fields.

No one can be everything to everyone. Similarly, no therapist can be everything to every client. It is therefore vital for us to find our “fit” amongst what seem to be endless yet confusing options. I am originally from China and I trained with some of the most renowned multicultural psychologists during my Ph.D. career at Columbia University. Since then, I interned and worked as a bilingual therapist at Mt. Sinai-Roosevelt Hospital in NYC, Mt. Sinai-Beth Israel Medical Center in NYC, and Amherst College Counseling Center in Amherst, MA. My own cross-cultural and cross-lingual experiences continue to shape the way I work.

I offer a compassionate environment in which to heal and transform, beginning with embracing what IS, which allows for a more relaxed, gentle, clear and effective approach to our difficulties.
Much of our emotional suffering stems from a disconnection from ourselves and our relationship with life. The work I offer facilitates a deep, authentic connection with oneself through somatic, experiential and psychodynamic work, self-inquiry, mindfulness and the support of the therapeutic relationship. Essentially I see that each person I work with has the full potential for healing already on board. We work to uncover and access that, so that full aliveness is restored.

Most of my clients are interested in what their inner world is trying to tell them through dreams, emotions, physical symptoms, etc. Anxiety, depression, anger, compulsion, illness, PTSD, etc. are the body/mind's way of guiding us as to how we need to grow. My clients want to discover, heal, and come to terms with their inner truth. My training and personal experience with verbal and nonverbal/somatic processes enable us to access the dynamic flow between the conscious mind and the unconscious. As clients learn to dialogue with the unconscious they discover their own truth. I am grateful to the unconscious for this guidance.

In life we all need hope, validation, just to know that today, "this too shall pass." I strive to connect with individuals with honesty, warmth, and empathy. When one makes that decision to seek emotional guidance, I understand the vulnerability and the bravery of that moment. While allowing one to take the time they need to reach their desires of the heart and/or identify what one desires through a space of compassion and mindfulness.

Do you need someone to listen to you and help you make sense of your experiences? Are your emotions overwhelming you? Do you feel misunderstood or unsupported? As a therapist I help people discover their own strength and confidence. You may be going through a difficult transition or feel like you are stuck in some way. Perhaps you have noticed a pattern in your behavior or relationships that you want to change.
