My specialties include: trauma, grief/loss, women's issues, & emotional sensitivity.
Are you troubled by negative or distressing thoughts & memories from the past or present? Have you experienced a trauma? Perhaps you find yourself "overreacting" to minor or non-incidents. Do others say you're "too sensitive"? Maybe you have lost someone or something and you're finding it difficult to move forward. You are in a battle to reclaim you're stability, freedom, joy, self-confidence, self-worth, self-control, or even a part of yourself. Somehow you have lost your way & you would give just about anything to get back to how life used to be. Or maybe you desire something even better than before. . . .

I have worked in both the inpatient and RTC settings and have experience treating eating disorders, body image struggles, trauma, attachment issues, anxiety, and perfectionistic struggles.
I know that finding the right therapist can feel like an overwhelming process... You want someone you vibe well with. That is where I come in. My goal is to provide you with a safe place to feel seen and heard. A place to thrive not just survive. I believe that therapy is designed to reflect a sense of honor and respect for someone’s story to achieve not only symptom remission but also a deeper, long-lasting sense of healing. I am passionate about working with individuals to improve their quality of life, increase internal connection, implement adaptive skills, and better their relationships with others, food, body, and movement.

I also treat trauma with EMDR.
Our mental health is impacted by our physiology as well as a variety of environmental factors. My approach as a therapist is to get to know you and your unique story very well. In the process, we identify which parts play what role and how best to heal. I work collaboratively with you to optimize functioning, restore inner peace and find happiness. Allow me to help you along on your healing and growth journey.

I work with adults who are struggling with a wide range of challenges and stressors including anxiety, depression, grief, anger management, and trauma.
Life can be overwhelming and challenges may seem insurmountable. It may be difficult to find a way through the barriers that are standing in the way of your personal happiness. Intense emotions like anxiety, depression, and anger can make managing stressful situations even more difficult. Maladaptive coping strategies like emotionally shutting down, perfectionism, critical thinking, alcohol and drug use, self-sabotage and communication breakdowns can increase feelings of isolation and loneliness. Reaching out for help takes strength and courage. Therapy can help you find a way through the barriers that are holding you back.

Additionally, I treat anxiety, mood disorders, eating disorders, attachment injuries, and trauma, among other mental health conditions.
I work with individuals, couples, and families who are navigating a variety of life’s challenges. My approach to therapy is strength-based and collaborative. I believe that people inherently have the resources inside of them that they need to create the kind of life that they want. My role is to help people implement strategies to access and further develop those resources. I use evidence-based practices and my clinical training to help my clients lead lives where they feel healthier and more connected to themselves and their loved ones. I see psychotherapy as an avenue to pursue personal growth, empowerment, and positive change.

Foundationally, I approach every relationship through an attachment and trauma-informed lens, keeping in mind that everyone deserves to be met right where they are at.
Hello! If you're reading this, I want you to know you are innately worthy of the care, change, and healing you so deeply desire. On top of that, you hold the power within to make those changes. Not only is this a belief I personally hold, it is one supported by research. On a molecular level, we are wired to develop and change when given what we need. This remains true starting from childhood and beyond into adulthood. Meaning, it's never too late to seek out wholeness and you haven't missed your chance.

Whether addressing mood disorders, relationship challenges, trauma, or self-esteem issues, I'm here to listen, empower & collaborate with you.
Sometimes it can be incredibly difficult to cope with the stress and complications that exist in day-to-day life. There are deadlines, pressures, demands—on top of the regular responsibilities, which can feel isolating and overwhelming. Therapy can be a great tool in offering people a safe place to not only process and learn to heal from their greatest difficulties, but learn skills and tools in navigating their stressors outside of sessions, whether you're facing major life transitions, or coping with anxiety, depression, self-esteem or body image issues, trauma, or even family difficulties.

I practice from a culturally-responsive and inclusive foundation, and have extensive experience working with patients from various cultural, racial/ethnic, spiritual and religious backgrounds. In particular, I feel passionate about serving the Asians, and immigrant population. As an Asian immigrant myself, I understand our unique cultural challenges such as identity issues and intergenerational conflicts, and how cultural trauma and stressors can play a role in our mental health. I also enjoy working with couples who are in mixed race/ multicultural relationship, or encountering challenges due to factors related to race and culture.

Are you just f-ing exhausted? A car accident left you emotionally paralyzed. An assault shook up your life. A recent medical diagnosis or crisis has you questioning what's next. All the "why" questions are flying through your head and the constant noise drives you nuts. You want things to make sense. You want to feel like yourself again. Most of all, you want to go back in time to the thing that changed your body or your life and do everything in your power to prevent it from happening. The problem is that no one prepared you for this or understands how to help.
