Let's Connect (437) 372-5159

I approach therapy with the belief that everyone has a life story that is worthy of being met with compassion and empathy. My professional background, combined with my identities as a member of the Asian and LGBTQIA+ community shapes my work through a strength-based, trauma-informed, and anti-oppressive lens. This intersectional perspective allows me to approach each client with cultural sensitivity, curiosity, and genuine care.

I draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches, including cognitive behavioural therapy, mindfulness practices, and distress tolerance skills, tailoring our work together to meet your unique needs. I take a holistic and collaborative approach, prioritizing a supportive therapeutic relationship as we work together toward the goals that matter most to you.

I invite you to reach out for a free 30-minute consultation so we can connect and explore whether the support I offer feels like the right fit for you.
