Hello! I am a queer and trans non-binary person who is half-Taiwanese and half-White, neurodiverse and chronically ill. I have the most experience working with clients who are members of the LGBTQIA+ community, specifically trans and gender-nonconforming people. I’m here to support you no matter what intersections of identity you may hold. I really enjoy working with clients who are seeking more fulfillment and authenticity in their lives - however that may mean to you - as your own autonomy is deeply important to me.
My work is grounded by anti-oppression and social justice and centered around the foundation of a genuine, compassionate, and collaborative therapeutic relationship. I operate from a curious and non-judgmental approach, offering as much or as little structure as desired.
I am here to show up for you with compassion and care - to offer therapeutic support as you move through this world. I’m trauma-informed, utilize mindfulness-based interventions, DBT skills, and ensure that there’s space for curiosity and reflection in our work together. Please check out my webpage linked below, to schedule with me on Manifest's website.
