Do you feel frustrated and confused sometimes? Have you ever debated which path to take in life? Have you ever wondered who you really are? What kind of relationship do you want? Do you identify yourself as a person of color or Asian American? As an Asian immigrant living in America myself, I understand the frustration and confusion you may have encountered. With my non-judgmental art therapy approach and cultural humility & competence, you'll find your way!
With my art therapy specialty, attentive listening, and culturally sensitive approach, you can find ease in our therapy sessions. Regardless of your age, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, and background, I am here to support you to reach your goals. If you don't enjoy traditional talking sessions, we can start our conversation with art-making.
Simply call or email me and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
