I work with Asian American individuals and couples around relationship issues. Most of my clients are thriving in their careers, but they want more. They want meaningful and deep connections. They want to be seen and accepted for who they are. But as Asians living in the US, being seen and understood is often complicated by cultural misunderstandings, holding conflicting values and identities, communication differences, prejudice and racism, intergenerational trauma, and immigration issues.

Psychotherapy can be a life-changing experience - positive, productive treatment begins with a safe, trusting empathic client-therapist alliance. My approach is solution-focused which means I like to concentrate on client strengths. Together, we collaborate toward understanding and resolving concerns and struggles in the present moment. I also focus on origin of concerns (root causes) as well as future health and happiness. To do this, I integrate numerous modalities, as treatment depends on client needs at the time. Clients I work best with appreciate a direct approach, with a twist of humor when appropriate.

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me. I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with an emphasis in Depth Psychology, and also a Core Faculty Professor in a PsyD Program, where I teach courses in the theory and practice of psychotherapy. As a depth psychologist, my focus is psychodynamic with a strong Psychoanalytic and Jungian influence. Depth Psychology takes special account of the way we relate to self and other and how certain relational patterns, put into place from childhood, impact our day-to-day experiences. My specialties include grief counseling, relational conflicts, self-esteem issues & life transitions.

I focus on Early Childhood Development, Adoption and Adoptee Experiences, and Parent Support. Children are not "mini-adults," no matter how much they may try to convince us! They are constantly changing, growing, and evolving—rapidly developing new skills every single day. Just think about it: they can triple in size and abilities within a year! What makes this journey even more challenging is that children primarily learn, grow, and communicate through play. This means it can be difficult to fully understand how to help them navigate life's many surprises. And when significant life experiences like adoption, divorce, or a move.

Relationships are critical for our survival in life. The quality of our relationships determine the quality of our lives. Such relationships, that are so important and yet at times seem so hard to achieve, include husband-wife, parent-child, teacher-student, and employer-employee or any other significant relationship. Our life journey can become complicated, however, we are much more in control of our lives than we realize. Taking more effective control means making better choices as you relate to others around you, as most of our struggles in life are a result of unsatisfying relationships.

I help people with low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma/complex trauma, indecision/stuckness/failure to launch, find the roots of their condition, process them and transition to resilience, personal growth and fulfilment. I help couples connect with themselves, their values and intentions, communicate authentically & safely and either experience the peace, happiness, and satisfaction they once knew and more, or recognize the truth that it is not meant to be, part on the best terms possible and begin new lives. I have lived in three countries and have deep empathy for immigrants but use mainly English for sessions.
