I specialize in working with trauma and complex family dynamics, particularly within Asian families. Together, we can explore how your upbringing and cultural context have shaped your experiences, and support you in healing, building self-understanding, and reconnecting with a sense of identity and purpose.
I also work with individuals who feel uncertain about their life direction. Whether you’re navigating a career change, adjusting to life in a new country, or managing evolving relationships, I offer a supportive space to gain clarity, make aligned decisions, and move forward with confidence.
In our work together, I will give you the tools, and we will look at things from a different perspective. I will help you connect with your inner wisdom and knowing, learn to feel in your body and find the courage to allow others to see you.
I work from a Trauma-Informed, Somatic, and Attachment Lens, and I use an Anti-Oppressive and Anti-Racist Framework.
I work from an attachment, and somatic lens as your body and brain need time to process the barriers, stress and traumatic histories preventing you from leading the meaningful life you want. Reach out to book a complimentary 15-minute consult so we can determine if we will be a good therapeutic fit. All sessions are conducted online via Zoom.
