I’m an Asian queer therapist based in NYC, offering sessions in English and Mandarin. I work closely with BIPOC, queer, and first-generation clients who often feel caught between cultures and identities, carrying expectations that never quite match who they really are. Many of the people I meet speak of trying to be the good student, the devoted child, the dependable partner, while privately feeling invisible and exhausted. You may know the weight of appearing composed while inside you are worn down by burnout, loneliness, or the quiet fear that something vital is slipping away.
Therapy with me is a space where you don’t have to explain away your complexity. My approach is psychodynamic and existential at its core, grounded in trauma-informed and relational practices. I also bring in narrative therapy, vocational support, and practical strategy when needed.
I work with adults navigating identity, substance use, cultural dislocation, and relational challenge. Therapy is a chance to stop carrying everything alone and to begin finding your own pace again. If something here speaks to you, I invite you to reach out for a free 15-minute consultation. Together we can see if this feels like the right space for you.
