Have you ever felt either "too much" or "not enough"? This could be a general struggle, or it could be related to a specific trait (i.e. too Asian/not Asian enough or too Queer/not Queer enough). Perhaps you struggle to belong and never feel like you quite fit anywhere. Or maybe factors such as perfectionism, self-doubt, overthinking, or comparison to others create problems in your life. These are common but nuanced issues; I understand and can help.
Let's explore your unique identity and come to a better understanding of yourself. We'll help you unconditionally accept and embrace yourself. Our therapeutic relationship can support you in meeting your goals. I hope to accompany your growth and healing as you learn, explore, set goals, and gain skills.
Finding the right therapist can be overwhelming. To support you in finding a good match, I offer a free initial phone consultation and provide other referrals if necessary. I currently only work with adults, and particularly enjoy helping those in Asian, Mixed-race, and LGTBQIA2S+ communities like me. Reach out to set up a time to chat; I'm here!

As someone who holds both queer and mixed-race identities myself, I take a relational and compassionate approach to validating your whole being. Finding more self-acceptance can be a quick process, or increase gradually over time.
