You contain multitudes. All of them belong here.
At Both/And, we are interested in the larger system you live inside: your history, relationships, identity, culture, and the ways you learned to protect yourself. When we talk about culture, we mean more than race or ethnicity. We are also talking about family, class, religion, migration, language, profession, ideology, and the beliefs you absorbed about who you should be. We are also talking about experience. Everybody has a cultural life. Therapy makes room for all of it.
Our Team
As a queer, first-generation Chinese-Mexican American, I have deep understanding of the complexities involved in navigating intersecting identities within interpersonal relationships and systemic structures. This lived experience shapes my commitment to reimagining family and intergenerational community through a queer lens, while actively resisting white supremacy and colonialism. In our work together, we will co-create the therapeutic process to meet your unique needs, values, and goals, fostering a space that feels both safe and empowering.

I work collaboratively with my clients to help them understand the thought patterns, belief systems, and expectations that influence how they move through the world. It is a process whereby, together, we bring the hidden pushes and pulls of their lives into clearer relief and empower them to make the desired changes in their lives.

I specialize in helping adults heal from complex childhood trauma, and the marks it leaves on you: a relentless inner critic, the reflex to please, difficulty trusting, recurring emotional pain, and the patterns that leave you feeling stuck in your relationships. Together, we'll work toward a softer, kinder relationship with yourself, and toward connections with others that truly nourish who you are. In our work, we slow down and reconnect with the parts of you that learned to hide pain and need. Together, we make space for long-suppressed feelings, grief, anger, tenderness, so they can transform into clarity and vitality.

I believe that by understanding overwhelming situations, exploring unhealthy patterns, and receiving guidance to manage your day-to-day difficulties, you can heal, grow, and build resilience. I have experience treating adults struggling with depressive, anxiety, and post-traumatic challenges, as well as with difficulties in relationships. I have also helped individuals experiencing grief, occupational, academic, and personal issues, stress-related situations, and life transitions.

I aim to create a safe and supportive environment where you feel cared for and deeply understood. In this space, we make time for self reflection that can lead to insight and a greater understanding of yourself, your relationships, and your life experiences. I will be with you and work to empower you at your weakest. I will also challenge you to grow so that your needs, desires, and goals can be met.
