You may be someone who appears to have it all together, yet inside, you often feel stuck, anxious, overwhelmed, or disconnected—from others or even from yourself. You may find yourself caught in the same patterns in relationships, weighed down by emotions you can’t fully name, or carrying pain from the past that hasn’t been resolved. You might have tried to figure things out on your own, but something keeps resurfacing—grief, shame, anger, or confusion. If you’re looking for a deeper understanding of yourself and lasting emotional change, I invite you to reach out. This work is about you—your inner world, your story, your becoming.

My specialty is psychoanalytic psychotherapy, a depth-oriented approach that looks beneath the surface to understand the patterns and experiences shaping your life. I work especially with immigrants, Asian diaspora, and LGBTQ+ individuals who may be navigating anxiety, depression, complex trauma (CPTSD), psychosomatic concerns, or feeling stuck and empty.

Your feelings and thoughts deserve to be met with curiosity, not judgment. Together, we will begin to make sense of what feels unspeakable and move toward greater freedom, meaning, and self-acceptance. If something in you is wondering whether change is possible, I invite you to listen to that part and to take the first step when you're ready. Let's talk.
