As a Mixed Asian American and third culture kid, I understand the unique journey of blending different identities to discover what feels true to me. If you or your child are navigating the challenges of biracial or mixed identity, I’m here to offer a welcoming space to explore this and anything else that you want to explore. The way we see ourselves deeply influences our health, the communities we feel connected to, and our overall sense of belonging. Through a collaborative therapeutic relationship, I support clients in connecting with their authentic selves to build a more balanced relationship with others and ourselves.
I am a humanistic therapist, and view my role in therapy as a facilitator and supporter of my client in their process. More specifically, I have a predominantly gestalt lens to my style of multicultural therapy and my goal is to support my clients in expanding their awareness and to strengthen their relationship with themselves.
If you are interested in learning a little more, I would be delighted to set up a free video consult by contacting me directly via text me at (415) 579-0761 or call Church St. Integral Counseling Center at (415) 648-2644 and leave a message for Emily.
