If you’re going to invest this much time and energy, you want therapy that actually moves the needle—not just insight. I work with individuals and couples in a structured, emotionally focused way aimed at lasting change. I’m a Level 3 Gottman clinician with certificates in EFT and perinatal mental health. I specialize in working professionals navigating marital distress, infertility/IVF, LGBTQ+ clients, Asian/Asian American and immigrant communities, and first-gen professionals feeling stuck despite doing everything right, as well as relational conflict, career curveballs, confidence slumps, and parenting challenges.
You deserve a therapist who makes therapy count. I use structured methods (Gottman, EFT, ACT) to help professionals and couples navigate dating, relationship tension, infertility/IVF, and career shifts. Together we'll name what 'better' means for you and work toward it deliberately.
You don’t need more time—you need the right strategy. If you’re ready for efficient, meaningful change, I invite you to reach out and connect.

I combine Gottman Method and EFT for couples—approaches that create deep, structural change in your relationship. For individuals, I use ACT with CBT and DBT in a way that's relentlessly focused on what works, what moves, and what sticks.
