Together, we use spirituality as a foundation for resilience and personal growth.
My journey into therapy began in my early years, shaped by the experience of immigrating to the USA as an infant. Learning English before my parents, I became a bridge between cultures, an experience that nurtured my empathy and understanding — essential qualities in my therapeutic work. My path has been guided by a calling to serve others, intertwining my faith with my professional skills.

As a long time practitioner of Eastern spirituality, I incorporate mindfulness and meditation into our work together. Rather than using a medical model, which seeks to diagnose and fix you, I seek to introduce you to your deepest truth, and thus guide you towards a true internal refuge. And mostly, I am here to help you experience more joy, balance and peace in your life.

I specialize in marginalized identities, LGBTQ populations, spirituality, and redefining masculinity.
As an Asian-American gay man who grew up in the US South, I knew from a young age that I lived in a world that did not offer me freedom to author my narrative. Thus, I am passionate about building critical consciousness, self-awareness, and self-confidence to counteract oppression and live in the world with empowerment and authenticity. I am privileged and honored to use my experience to heal any client who has ever felt marginalized, outcasted, or misunderstood simply for "not fitting into boxes." If you are ready to live for yourself rather than for the limiting expectations of society, then I am looking forward to collaborating.

In my experience I've come to know that each person's struggles and strengths are unique, but we're all connected and affected by one another. From this starting point, I hope to build a safe place to process, grow, and develop new skills to overcome life's difficulties. Using an eclectic blend of evidence based practices specifically tailored to each individual, I have treated adults with depression, anxiety, trauma, anger management, issues of spirituality, and life transitions. I also have more specialized experience working with those suffering from grief and loss, and have researched and published on the topic as well.

If the space where neuroscience meets spirituality sounds intriguing to you, we will be a great fit.
During these times of accelerated change, transition can feel quite overwhelming. Maybe life circumstances shifted dramatically or you've been feeling for awhile now that you'd like more clarity in your life or into yourself. My purpose is to guide you through shifts in consciousness and to the answers you already have within you. I can teach techniques to quiet the mind and connect to your higher self. We can explore deeper trance states, higher perspectives, and uncover what may be blocking you from living as your best, most authentic self.

Spirituality Therapists
What should I expect from therapy that incorporates a focus on spirituality?
Spirituality can mean different things to different individuals, depending on their experiences, beliefs, and life histories. Some individuals focus on strengthening their belief system, while others experience spirituality in secular ways, such as through meditation, yoga, or by spending time in nature. Clients can expect a therapist to help guide and grow their spirituality through any of these techniques, encouraging the individual to cope with the challenges they face and develop strategies to build resilience and purpose to improve their outlook in life.
What are the most common treatments that include spirituality?
There are several treatments that incorporate spirituality. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) helps a person examine and reframe their negative thoughts and behaviors. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) focuses on emotional acceptance and psychological flexibility. Existential therapy is most often used to address anxiety, depression, grief, loneliness, apathy, despair, questions of identity, and feelings of purposelessness and existential dread. Transpersonal therapy focuses on a client’s spirituality and meaning in life and may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualization, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork.
Can therapy incorporating spirituality help atheistic or agnostic individuals?
Yes. For non-believers, spirituality can offer benefits including a greater sense of connection to others and to the natural world. An interest in spirituality may also spur individuals to pursue mindfulness practices, or to contemplate their purpose in life and how to achieve it.
How effective is spirituality as a therapeutic remedy?
Research suggests spirituality is generally beneficial for individuals. It is correlated with better health habits, such as less substance use, and an improved capacity to cope with stress and other mental health challenges. Increased spirituality can lead individuals to become more empathic and less materialistic, as well.
