Let's Connect (872) 252-7910
I have experience working with diverse individuals across all age groups and a passion for working with emerging adults who are navigating and coping with life's stresses. Picture a safe, non-judgmental, and warm therapy space where we could collaborate and work on your goals, explore and process your thoughts and emotions, discover your authentic self, and find strengths and resilience in your life journey. I listen actively and empathically, provide emotional support and validation, and use different therapeutic interventions based on your presenting concerns.
As an integrated therapist, I use evidence-based approaches to help you explore and change unbalanced/unhelpful thinking patterns, gain self-awareness and insight into your situations, learn coping skills, develop and enhance your strengths, and strengthen your interpersonal/familial relationships.
I pay attention to the impact of cultural differences and incorporate them into treatment. Are you ready to explore the path toward a healthier and more fulfilling life? Let's connect! You are welcome to message me and I'll get back to you quickly. Therapy can also be provided in Mandarin Chinese. I look forward to hearing from you!
