Hi there! I’m excited that you’ve chosen to add therapy to part of your self-care. I was raised by my Korean immigrant grandmother and Black grandfather. This informs a lot of my therapeutic approach. I believe we have to approach healing through a holistic lens and view each person as a part of many systems including their family, community, culture, religion, society, and others. Intersectionality helps us understand that we are more than one “thing.” At all times we are carrying and accessing multiple parts of our identity that mix to form something beautifully complex– YOU!

Greetings! I want to first congratulate you on taking your first step towards change. Change is not always easy, which is why it is important to meet your client where they are at. Life can leave us feeling broken, defeated, misunderstood or invisible. There may have been times where you struggled with every day responsibilities, felt hopeless or felt alone with unwanted thoughts. Well, this does not have to last always. My goal is to help heal wounds and embrace the beauty that we were created to be….with grace. The beautiful thing about the brain is its ability to adapt to change, adapt to new experiences, reorganize and grow.

Anxiety and OCD can feel completely overwhelming physically, mentally, and emotionally, and can make everyday life very challenging. Maybe you're avoiding things you used to enjoy, feeling like you're not yourself, withdrawing from others, or feeling discouraged, unmotivated, or depressed. You may be experiencing panic attacks, or worrying much more than you'd like. Perhaps your relationships are being impacted by anxiety; you may be feeling burnt out or having difficulty connecting with others. The good news is that it is possible to live life with greater peace, and I'd love to help!

If you are experiencing difficulties in your life and ready to start exploring how to create a different path, therapy is a great place to start. I have experience working with individuals from diverse backgrounds and life experiences. Trauma, big and small, can play a large role in how we view our world and how we react and interact in our daily lives. There are a lot of tools that can be helpful in creating a life that feels different and more manageable. EMDR therapy is one of the tools I use most often in my work and have found it helpful in addressing a variety of primary concerns.

You’re exhausted by trying to fit into everyone’s expectations of you. What if you could feel more connected to your true self?

You might not even remember a time when things didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to feel peaceful and grounded. You’re ready to feel more connected and satisfied in your relationships. Most of all, you’re ready to love yourself and face your future with passion and purpose.

Sometimes life transitions, even celebrated ones such as the birth of a child or retirement, can create feelings of loss, new roles and questioning. I help people through all life transitions, grief & loss, and trauma. I also enjoy working with couples navigating challenges of parenting, work/life stressors, communication, and understanding partner's anxiety or depression. Clients who work with me tend to need support to break out of negative patterns, understand themselves and partners' needs better, and have a desire to achieve a higher quality of life & relationships.

Early in life we learn to disconnect from our bodies and emotions in order to survive and adapt to the environment. Overtime, this manifests as patterns of behavior and self-rejection that though were once adaptive, now only keep us stuck. These patterns typically manifest as anxiety, depression, self-hatred, toxic shame, addictions, obsessions, compulsions, codependency and relationship problems. I work experientially in the moment to get to the root of what is getting in the way of desired experiences on an identity level. Many clients describe this process as a gradual “coming home” or reconnection to their authentic self.

Female Therapists

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?

In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.

Should I see a female therapist?

Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.

Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?

Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?

It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
