Are you a parent concerned about your teens shift in behavior or mood? You may be confused whether it is "regular teen" stuff or something more. You miss your happy, carefree child and wonder if they will ever enjoy life again. Imagine what it would be like for them to have their confidence back and skills to manage difficult situations and emotions in the future. Your teen would feel better about themselves and parents could breath easier knowing their children have the skills to cope and know when and how to ask for help. Life transitions are hard, whether it's going to or graduating from college. It's okay to ask for help.

Therapy can feel like a scary step to take. Even more it can be a struggle to just share one's needs/stories. Which is why Diego and I work with each of our Clients in making that fear go away and assisting everyone in feeling comfortable and at ease.

Hello there. Welcome to my little part of the website. I’m so happy you’re here. I’m Xuan (English pronunciation Sue Anne). In life, there are times, places and spaces where we may feel unheard, unseen, and overlooked. Unfortunately those feelings are multiplied when marginalized identities such as race, gender identity, and ability status come into play. As a first generation disabled Asian American, I bring all of my identities to the table without shame and encourage others to as well. When we bring our whole authentic selves to the table, we are giving permission for others to do the same.
