Hello, I'm Kion, a registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist who is dedicated to empowering individuals, couples, and families navigating mental health challenges, life transitions, and relationships. I believe in the innate resilience of every person, and strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and supported. My clinical approach emphasizes collaboration, cultural humility, and fostering practical skills to help clients build emotional awareness, improve relationships, and reclaim agency in their lives.
Passionate about helping couples navigate relational patterns and challenges, I utilize the Gottman Method to foster deeper communication, rebuild trust, and create lasting intimacy. I am fluent in Japanese & Chinese, and bring cultural sensitivity to my work, honoring diverse identities and systemic influences on mental health.
Whether supporting individuals in reclaiming agency or guiding couples toward deeper connection, I meet clients with empathy and intentionality. I look forward to walking alongside you as you cultivate self-compassion, strengthen relationships, and embrace holistic growth.
