We have seasons in our lives that are filled with stress, anxiety, sadness, guilt, disappointment, grief, and even hopelessness. It can be overwhelming, getting stuck in a place where we cannot see a way forward, unable to change unwanted and repeated behaviors, where no one seems to understand or able to help, feeling frustrated, unmotivated, discouraged, alone, and even ashamed. Or you may be going through transitions, significant changes in work, family, relationships, and are understandably overwhelmed with uncertainty and feelings of loss. If this has been your experience, there is help to walk towards healing and renewal.
I've had the privilege to support many people through this journey. I value and commit to creating a safe, empathetic, non-judgmental, and culturally sensitive environment for my clients. I work with clients to be radically compassionate and honest with themselves, valuing and validating their emotions, and building self-affirming thoughts and beliefs.
As an Asian immigrant, I have personally experienced the challenges of adapting to a new culture. I've worked with clients of diverse backgrounds, but also extensively with Cantonese speakers. My therapeutic style is warm and collaborative, and sessions may range from silent presence to energetic discussions. Currently, I'm available through telehealth.

I draw from mindfulness, CBT, and parts work in my therapeutic approach, which includes a focus on the present, practicing mindful and compassionate curiosity toward the patterns of core beliefs and emotional reactions, exploring the past experiences to deepen self understanding, identifying and changing the cognitive distortions that may hold you back.
