Whether your issues are individual (related to mood, identity, self-growth, etc.) or relational (romantic, family, friendships, work, etc.), I believe that change is possible and strive to offer a supportive, caring, and affirming space for you to explore, heal, thrive, and grow. Together, we'll work in ways that are in-depth and practical, move through challenges, and tap into the strengths that are already within you. It’s important to me that I offer an environment that is free of judgment and oppression, and in which you are fully seen.
I celebrate the strengths and center the needs of those who are marginalized by systems of power and privilege, and am drawn to working with BIPOC, AAPI folks, immigrants, descendants of immigrants, and those who identify as alternative, weird, and rebellious, etc.. In addition to English, I speak conversational Cantonese.
Deciding to go to therapy or finding a new therapist, and the process of searching for a good fit can feel new and overwhelming, and I'm glad you're here. I honor each of our unique journeys and am curious about getting to know yours deeply. If you're anywhere in California, I invite you to reach out as an individual (adult or teen) or as partners.
