As a Columbia-trained therapist, I specialize in working with Asian American clients navigating the complexities of identity, relationships, & expectations. You might be balancing the pressure to succeed with the desire to live life on your own terms. Maybe you’ve been taught to push through, stay quiet, or prioritize others while your own needs, emotions, & questions remain unspoken. Whether you’re a first-generation student figuring out how to navigate romantic relationships, a professional managing stress and family responsibilities, or someone questioning what you truly want for your life, you don’t have to go through it alone.
With over 10 years of experience, I understand how heavy it can feel to carry cultural expectations, navigate dual identities, and make sense of family dynamics that aren’t always openly discussed. On the outside, it might look like you have it all together, but internally, you may feel stuck, unseen, or unsure of your next step.
In our work together, you won’t have to over-explain your background or prove your experience. I offer a space where you can show up fully as yourself. Together, we’ll explore what matters to you, build clarity and confidence, and develop practical tools to help you move toward a life that feels more aligned, authentic, and fulfilling.
