Are you an adult, 18+, and new or returning to therapy? For well over a decade, I've amassed a breadth of experience in a variety of social work roles and find my work as a Mental Health Therapist, most rewarding. I have a decade's worth of experience working with those experiencing mood disorders, trauma disorders, anxiety disorders, self-esteem barriers, relationship barriers, and family conflict. In session, I'll compassionately meet you where you are, and lovingly challenge you to shift survival-based mindsets that are no longer serving you.

Each of us has the right to a safe, warm, environment in which we feel respected, listened to and truly understood. As a therapist, I work hard to provide that environment and to be that person who deeply gets you. When we suffer, whether as children or adults, we often are left with a sense of loss of self. A key purpose of therapy, in my view, is to find, reclaim, or strengthen your authentic self and to let that authentic self take the lead in your life.

I feel that therapy can be a wonderful resource to help you cope with and heal from life's challenges. Understanding how your life experiences have led to relationship and behavior patterns can help you make lasting changes and lead a more fulfilling life. I work hard to create a safe environment and partnership with clients to facilitate personal growth. I utilize an integrative therapy model to create a personalized approach for each individual I work with. I also provide consultation.

As a licensed therapist, I have experience working with individuals and families of various ages and backgrounds in school, hospital and private practice settings. I currently focus my clinical work with tweens/teens and adults who are struggling with anxiety, stress, depression and self-esteem. And, as a biracial (Asian/White) therapist, I am knowledgeable about unique identity issues for biracial/multiracial individuals and am passionate about supporting others in this area. I believe therapy should be a collaborative process, and view clients as the experts of their own experiences.

Are you feeling lost and alone? Do you struggle to deal with your anxiety and your emotions in general? Are you confused or overwhelmed when thinking about your present and future? Do you need someone to guide you, support you as a companion in your valuable journey? If your answer to any of these questions is "Yes," or even if you have questions of your own, I am ready for walking with you and stand beside you as your life companion.

Your past experiences do not define you! We can learn and grow through every experience--no matter how challenging or painful it might be. In the therapy room, I create a loving, safe space to truly explore your deepest inner workings, dreams, past hurts, desires, difficult feelings, and hopes for the future. I work with individuals, couples, and groups to help you become your best self and heal from experiences you may be struggling to overcome. Together we will build your capacity to be in relationship to yourself and others--to play, to grieve, to love, and to feel all your feelings.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and am currently accepting new patients. I enjoy working with a diverse group of individuals who have various levels of mental health challenges. One of my specialties is helping people attain higher levels of self esteem . My approach to psychotherapy comes from an understanding that every individual is unique and that various life experiences as well as genetic makeup contribute to one's overall mental health. I take into account the particular needs of the person & focus on the current problem while also processing & exploring further in an attempt to identify & resolve the root of the issue.

I believe everyone was chosen for purpose. My goal is to hold a space designed for self-exploration, empowerment, and wholeness. It is a team effort, so lets go on this therapy journey together as you seek to heal from past hurts, build healthy relationships, grow, and learn the tools needed to achieve your true purpose in life.

We all experience strength and struggle throughout life, often simultaneously. If you have reached a point where you feel the struggle is overshadowing, or overwhelming, I am here to help. I believe in working collaboratively with you to address the challenges that are currently preventing you from living wholeheartedly. I specialize in areas including depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, self-esteem, eating disorders and body image. I can also support you in strengthening your personal boundaries, and improving communication with others. We will work together to find effective ways to better understand and support your needs.

I believe therapy is a tool that can be used by everyone to help make life more manageable. During these uncertain times I am now offering virtual appointments that can be done in the safety and comfort of your own home. When we feel our life is out of control or we're unable to manage it, we may go to extremes to try and regain control. Most of the methods we turn to in these situations may seem to help in the beginning, but more often than not they end up hurting us in the long run. I believe this is where therapy can help to find healthy and productive ways to gain a sense of confidence and capability to handle struggles.

I look forward to working with you, or your children, in overcoming current obstacles and life challenges. In my experience in working with adults, children, and families, they have all the strengths and resources they need within themselves, and can reach their full potential within a safe, empathic therapeutic relationship.

Are you feeling hopeless? Feeling helpless? Have difficulties adjusting? Have you recently experienced a loss/death? Do you feel misunderstood? Are you feeling more lethargic and sadder than normal? Does your child need extra support? Is your family/relationship falling apart? If your answer to any of these questions is "Yes" or even if you have questions of your own it may be time to reach out and talk through those thoughts and feelings.
