I also see 18 to 32-year-olds who are BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color), autistic or LGBTQIA2S+, especially gender diverse folks. I can do assessments for gender affirming surgery.

I started this practice because I wanted to change the way we look at healthcare. Many people focus on lifespan—just counting the years on a calendar. But throughout my career, I’ve learned that simply living longer isn't enough if you don't feel well while doing it.
That is why my practice is built on what Dr. Peter Attia calls "Medicine 3.0"—an approach to healthcare that focuses on prevention before mental health issues start. I don't just write a prescription for a symptom—I want to partner with you to protect your healthspan, making sure the years ahead are spent feeling strong, sharp, and truly alive.

FAQ - Asian Psychiatrists
What can an Asian psychiatrist help with?
Psychiatrists are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of mental health conditions, often through a combination of therapy and medication. For many individuals, especially those from culturally diverse backgrounds, feeling seen and understood by a mental health provider can be just as important as clinical expertise. For some people of Asian descent, working with a psychiatrist who shares their cultural heritage can help bridge communication gaps, reduce stigma, and provide a more nuanced understanding of an individual's challenges. While psychiatrists of all backgrounds are equally qualified, Asian psychiatrists may bring personal and professional insight into issues such as cultural stigma around mental health, intergenerational and immigrant experiences, racial discrimination, and identity-related stressors that can shape a person’s mental well-being.
Who is included in Psychology Today's directory of Asian psychiatrists?
When searching for a provider, it is important to consider a range of factors to find the best fit for your mental health needs and cultural preferences. Psychology Today’s online directory is a helpful tool that allows you to filter your search specifically for Asian psychiatrists (MDs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs). As you view a provider’s profile, consider their clinical focus to see if they have explicit experience with issues like racial identity, trauma, family dynamics, or specific populations. It is also helpful to consider practical details such as their therapeutic modalities, whether they offer in-person or virtual sessions, the languages they speak, and which insurance plans they accept to ensure their care is accessible to you.
