Change is possible. You might be looking here because you've tried everything else, and you're still struggling. We all need support. You don't need to struggle alone. I provide in-person and online sessions where you can explore your feelings, be heard and supported with compassion. I work in the present moment, and include all aspects of what it means to be human: your body, mind and spirit. I'll provide you with feedback, so you can gain new awareness. My approach is creative, relational, and I bring humour into my sessions. I offer a free 15-20 initial phone session.

Do you find yourself feeling stuck, ashamed or overwhelmed? Are you repeating patterns you want to shake? In my practice I offer a warm, non-judgemental space where we can explore what’s going on for you. I work with individuals grappling with anxiety, life transitions, relationship issues (romantic, friendships, family) stress, depression, trauma and more. I support clients to find greater self-awareness, self-compassion, and self-acceptance. Together we can work to deepen your connection to yourself and others. My approach is warm, collaborative and grounded in deep respect for your uniqueness and your innate capacity for healing.

How to find hope? If you are feeling STUCK, engaging in therapy can help you get MOVING again. Usually, you are someone on the MOVE, adapting to challenges, always ready for the next stage, with confidence and a SMILE! But this time it’s different. You may feel trapped. Pressing ahead and making desired change is hard. You may be struggling with finding yourself, a lack of meaning in your life, difficulty managing relationships, or processing emotions and unresolved trauma.

I delight in the uniqueness and complexity of each individual. Holding space for personal work, reflection and deepening of awareness is a gift and honor that I hold dear. I feel it's important to make room for the unfolding intentionality of each person through body mind heart and soul. I tend to support experiences around development, grief, queerness, sexuality and spirituality with great tenderness. I look forward to learning from the people who I meet in my practice as I adapt to how they experience being supported.

Guys have way more going on emotionally than most of us are comfortable talking about. If you have never talked to someone about whatever it is that you probably should talk to someone about, then I may be the guy for you. Some men come to my office after they've recently broken up with their girlfriend (or she has broken up with him). Some are dealing with anxiety or are living under the influence of depression. Some guys are trying to figure out who they really are and what to do with their life. What they all have in common is that they have strengths to draw on and want to advance in life feeling better than they do now.

You’ve made the decision to seek support — good for you.
Maybe you haven’t been feeling like yourself for a while, or you struggle to even know who you are. Your thoughts feel cloudy, and it’s hard to connect with how you truly feel. You’re moving through life on autopilot, disconnected from the present and from your sense of self. Deep down, you want to feel calmer, more grounded, and more at peace. You want your thoughts to slow down, to feel more connected to yourself and others, and to approach yourself with more kindness and acceptance.

In our lives, we often find ourselves stuck. We find it difficult to stop thinking, feeling, or behaving in ways that are no longer useful. Our interpretations of past experiences, beliefs about ourselves, others and the world, can sometimes hold us back from enjoying the present and imagining a better future. We want things to change but are uncertain how to change them. We need time, space, and guidance to transform ourselves and forge a new path. As a psychotherapist, I help facilitate your journey and guide you towards your personal goals by empowering you to remove emotional and psychological roadblocks.

I offer both short-term and long-term psychotherapy sessions aimed at enhancing your emotional and social intelligence. If you have an interest in understanding your place in the world, or if you find yourself caught up in complicated relationship dynamics if you are navigating life transitions such as burnout, loss, new caregiving responsibilities, divorce, or if you're feeling numb, joyless, anxious, or depressed, having someone with a broader perspective can be incredibly helpful. Using the adult developmental model, I guide you in repairing your relationship with yourself so that you can co-create with life.

You might feel drained in the breakup, hurt that relationships are often not reciprocated, or struggle to trust that you're worthy of love. Sometimes you don't know what to do with the frustration and anger of having a limerance experience. You second-guess yourself constantly, questioning if you are asking “too much” or “not good enough” for the people around you. Whether the wound comes from childhood, identity-based harm, relationships, or systemic violence, it changes how you relate to the world and be in your own body. As a queer Asian therapist, I am here to walk this journey with you— to foster security and self-love.

I believe that we all experience brokenness. I believe in the power of being heard with compassion and empathy. I believe that we can learn how to be kind with ourselves when we experience kindness. You might be thinking about therapy because you want to work through a problem that persists in your life, to make a big choice, take a new step, sort through a past experience, or you simply want to feel better. Whatever brought you here there is nothing too big or too small to bring into our therapeutic space. This is your time.

My goal is to help my clients arrive at a deeper understanding of their needs and motivations in work and in play, across the full spectrum of their relationships, and amid the confusion and turmoil of challenging situations. This is a process no one should have to go through alone. Having benefited from self-exploration with skillful and empathic mentors, I am privileged to rediscover the essence of this work in every new therapeutic engagement. The uniqueness of each individual calls for a disciplined mutual curiosity that allows for the constant emergence of fresh information and potentially transformative insight.

A long road led us here along with past experience, inner torment, discoveries, joys and scars from previous relationships. Perhaps a crisis brought you here - when the old has already died and the new has not yet been born. We will go on a journey together and, instead of a map and a compass, we will create clear contract that tells where we want to go and how our adventure will end.

You may feel dissatisfied with your life. Perhaps you have a difficult relationship with someone you care about. Or maybe you experience anxiety, anger, frequent stress or even depression.
You may have gone through a traumatic life event that has left you feeling either overwhelmed with difficult emotions or completely detached from them. You wonder if there is something wrong with you as a result, or maybe you are in search of ways to better cope with all that has happened.

I really enjoy working with clients motivated for growth and change, and curious about themselves; what makes them "tick". The depth of my craft involves creating and holding a therapeutic space or "container", enabling my clients to turn inwards and discover what moves them unseen. Patterns in personality and emotion emerge into view; emotional processes become unstuck and able to flow through to resolution. An inner space opens for something new. It is a tremendous honour and privilege to accompany and serve people on this journey as a trusted ally, a witness, and expert midwife of psychological change.
