I work best with people who want to change their lives but feel stuck, confused and paralyzed by fear and anxiety. They feel dishonest with themselves and frustrated for giving up on their true desires. However, deep inside they know they can do better. This struggle is their most intimate enemy. They feel alienated and unhappy sometimes in their relationships, work, profession, and in their daily lives in general. I help them to feel more confident about themselves, motivated to take control over their lives and to make the changes they want to make.

Let's brainstorm ways to help you regain control over your life and feel safe in your body again.

I believe people come to therapy because something isn't working for them. They need someone to listen to their story, hear the deeper meanings and make meaningful connections for them. They may be depressed over a relationship, experiencing a loss of self esteem, mourning a loved, seeking a deeper meaning in life, or becoming aware of a past trauma. Sharing ones concerns with an experienced therapist can help connect past history to the present allowing one to gain meaningful insights into ones life. Therapy is a place to share, unburden and grow toward the fulfillment one longs for.

My approach focuses on helping you use awareness so you can feel more in control. It's not uncommon to have periods when our emotions feel overwhelming or our thoughts won't slow down and then we feel stuck. I help people learn strategies to reduce in-the-moment intensity and to become curious about these patterns of feelings and thoughts. Doing this will allow you to understand them more. Oftentimes these patterns are attempts to try and soothe something or help us in some way. By understanding them, we can develop other methods to meet those same needs as you move forward in your journey toward healing.

Positive change takes work. Negative change just happens. But even positive change, regardless of whether it's anticipated or planned, creates stress. This often causes ambivalence which can stop people from taking action to improve their lives. Let me help you work to manage and overcome the negative thoughts and self-doubt that are holding you back.

I am an EMDR-trained Mental Health Counselor accepting individuals and couples for therapy. I strive to make therapy an affirming, anti-oppressive space by addressing the harmful effects of systemic oppression and exploring what healing means for each individual. I’m experienced with helping people navigate complex trauma, immigrant family dynamics, grief and loss, disordered eating and body image issues, work-related burnout, gender and sexuality exploration, polyamory, and neurodivergence. I am especially committed to supporting those who are part of marginalized communities and love working with other queer Asian Americans.

Sometimes in life we find ourselves treading water. This may be because of an unresolved internal conflict from our past or as a result of external forces such as systemic oppression, financial hardship, and chronic illness. Therapy can be a collaborative space to retreat from the mental exhaustion we experience when we try to solve our problems in isolation. In my time as a licensed psychotherapist, I’ve found that the work is most effective when the bond between therapist and client is strong, and there is a sense of safety and mutual respect.

I work with each client to identify sources of distress and dissatisfaction in their lives, and to overcome obstacles to living a healthy and happy life. I begin therapy by gaining a clear understanding of your strengths as well as areas for growth, and building a strong working alliance. Together we identify therapy goals and formulate a plan to achieve them. I combine cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, DBT and humanistic approaches to tailor a unique therapy plan for each individual. My approach involves listening carefully and asking questions to help guide you to greater understanding about yourself and to make the changes that you seek.

A satisfying life requires a balance between how much attention we pay to the external world (work, relationships, etc.) and the extent to which we attend to our internal, emotional world. This can be challenging because our culture favors focusing on external stimulus (relationship status, satisfying societal expectations, getting a job promotion, comparing our lives to Instagram highlight reels) over our vast internal worlds. It’s almost by design that we spend so much time focusing outside ourselves!
