Adults who, despite all of their efforts, still feel a sense of doubt about life. I also work with people who may have experienced difficult life events. I strive to support them in overcoming and healing from past wounds. If you are seeking therapy because you know life can be better and you are tired of feeling the weight of life dragging you down, maybe it is time to invest in yourself. Prioritizing yourself can make a world of difference from meeting your basic needs to alleviating stress in your life. It is not selfish to put yourself first, it is essential to making the changes you need in life. You deserve it!

Welcome! Life can often feel challenging - I strive to help restore hope for adults, children, and adolescents who may be going through a difficult time. Parenting a child or adolescent who is struggling can feel especially overwhelming and exhausting. Does your child or teen struggle with behavioral or academic challenges? Or maybe you are concerned they are showing signs of depressed mood, anxiety, increased irritability, or difficulties paying attention and staying organized. Parenting is one of the most important things that we will do in our lives, yet much of the information available to parents is conflicting or confusing.

My specialties include anxiety, depression, unresolved past trauma, childhood abuse/neglect, loss and grief, parenting, perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, stress management, and working with Asian American/minority issues such as family conflict, immigrant mental health, intergenerational trauma, perfectionism, and cultural identity.
Sometimes we feel overwhelmed from having various types of stressors that hinder us from fully enjoying and living life. At times, our problems can feel like we are facing an enormous mountain that blocks us from getting to the other side, leaving us feeling stuck and hopeless. Someone once told me that instead of looking up at the mountain and letting it block you from moving forward, start climbing, one step at a time. You do not have to climb by yourself. My role would be to journey alongside with you, guide, and help you to achieve a satisfying and fulfilling life.

Parenting Therapists

What does therapy for parenting look like?

Therapists may work with parents individually, together, or include the whole family to find solutions for the problems a parent faces. Many parent-based therapies work on a parent’s relationship with their children, problem-solving within the family, and analysis of family dynamics. Therapy conducted remotely by video may be helpful in allowing a therapist to observe how families interact in their own homes.

When should a parent seek therapy?

When behavioral problems begin to disrupt the healthy functioning of a family, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If parents find that children are acting out in school, have started using drugs or alcohol, have developed eating disorders, or other similar red flags, a therapist may be able to help.

How long does therapy take for parenting problems?

Depending on the severity of a family’s challenges and the type of treatment utilized, therapy for parenting can last from weeks to months. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a pragmatic therapy type that can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. Structural family therapy, which inspects family dynamics, often takes several months. Parent-child interaction therapy is typically shorter-term, lasting between 10 and 20 sessions. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.

Can therapy help parents dealing with burnout or stress?

Parenting is difficult. Parents may dismiss or conceal feelings of exhaustion, overwhelm, or escape ideation—imagining withdrawing from their parental obligations altogether. but left unattended, these feelings can have negative effects on the whole family. A therapist can help parents work on the skills they might need to better cope with the burdens of parenting and help them be the best parents they can be.
