Hello, and welcome. You may have arrived here because you've done everything the "right way" but that hasn't led to happiness. You wonder, what do people mean when they say "go with the flow"? Or, you can't shake that feeling you've somehow missed important life milestones, and you need some clarity. I offer warm, empathic engagement in a safe space, where we can assess your needs, comfort level and tolerance to create a plan unique to you.
I am a mindfulness practitioner who specializes in issues of identity, stress, anxiety, perfectionism, communication, and self-esteem. I love helping folks build a sense of belonging. I have a special interest using stories and characters from media- comics (manhwa, manga, graphic novel), anime, K-drama, wuxia, xianxia, as therapeutic tools for exploration.
The therapeutic relationship can be utilized as a learning relational platform, where you engage in experiential activities and carry them out into the real world. "Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional." Kindly email me for the fastest response.

Many of my clients have come to see me because they've experienced emotional wounds from family or friends, and they carry resentment, pain or loss. Others have encouraged them to go no-contact, which doesn't feel right. If you wish to make space for your own needs, while considering these important relationships, we can find a path forward that feels authentic for you.

I work through a psychodynamic, relational, culturally sensitive lens. This means I consider family dynamic, childhood experiences, attachment, immigration history, intergenerational trauma, and I'll be asking you about these pieces of information in the first 2-3 sessions to better understand and serve you. That said, every client is different, and we will go at whatever pace you need.
