Have you been feeling down or unmotivated lately? Feeling lost or couldn't stop worrying? You're definitely not alone. Whether you are feeling depressed, anxious; dealing with breakups, relationship stress, family conflicts, work problems, insomnia, constant self doubt, or aiming to boost confidence/self esteem; therapy may be a good starting point to help you expand your capacity to cope and recover from emotional distress. My work consists of using non-judgmental and collaborative approach to help you establish and develop skills to optimize your ability to overcome a wide range of stressors and concerns.
I have over 10 years of extensive experience working with diverse population in outpatient medical and community setting. My background includes providing culturally competent therapy to the Asian American community, tech employees, healthcare providers, and entrepreneurs utilizing evidence based practices such as CBT, DBT, ERP, psychodynamic therapy, etc.
I consider myself to be ecletic meaning I use different interventions that tailor to my clients' needs. I understand that initiating therapy can elicit feelings of uncertainty or you may have further questions to inquire before making a commitment. Please feel free to contact me for a free consultation to learn more prior to starting this journey.
