We all reach the limits of our own ability to cope, our own supports, and our own usual ways of thinking and responding. When this happens it’s not uncommon to fall into behavioral patterns and symptoms - depression, anxiety and compulsive behaviors. We forget our own strengths and don’t realize our own capacity to heal. Things just seem impossible. Our thoughts race and we can’t sleep.

It can be hard to admit you’re struggling. You’ve already done most of the hard work by seeking out help. If you are trying to understand how relationships, education, work, and culture interact in your life, therapy can be a safe place to make sense of it all. As an Asian American man, I recognize how identities, relationships, and mental health intersect. I didn't grow up with emotional language, so finding mental health therapy in my 20s has been transformational.  As a child of immigrants and a parent myself, I have experienced intergenerational relationships from multiple roles.

Are you ready for a new beginning? / Estás listo para un nuevo comienzo? As a Mental Health Counselor, I believe in the potential of all my clients. Together, we will explore your strengths and opportunities and work to fulfill your goals. I have over 15 years of experience working with family interactions, reunification, life issues, mental health diagnoses, trauma, and anger management. My therapeutic focus is client-centered.

Many of my clients are children who struggle with:* Attention and Learning Issues *Anxiety, Sadness or Mood Swings * A hyper sensitivity to people and the environment. Traditional therapies include medication or "cognitive" approaches. But these approaches do not directly address the fact that often the brain is stuck in an unsuccessful pattern that the conscious mind may not be able to change. My program integrates psychotherapy and coaching with Brain Biofeedback (Neurofeedback) to change these brain patterns and increase calmness, balance, and self regulation.

I am a psychologist with over 30 years of experience treating adolescents and women. My approach is eclectic, including training in psychodynamic, Jungian and EMDR therapy. I am especially challenged by people experiencing various "developmental crises," at different stages of life. My approach with clients is systemic; I work with families, schools, etc. In addition to working with clients who are physically healthy, I have specialized training and experience working with people coping with medical issues as well as with families, where a member is suffering from a chronic or terminal illness.

My approach is eclectic. I join you in the road to recovery. I consider myself culturally competent, trauma informed and gender sensitive. Therapy like most professions continue to evolve, therefore, I actively seek ways to improve the delivery of evidence based practices that I use. I strongly believe that each experience with clients I serve is unique and rewarding. My hope is to help clients begin the journey of achieving a life worth living.
