As a neurodivergent therapist myself, I believe wholeheartedly in the power of prioritizing my clients’ lived experiences throughout our time together. I work through a lens of intersectionality and feel strongly that each client is the expert of their own experience in life. My goal is always to create a warm, inclusive, and supportive environment where clients can feel safe to express their thoughts and feelings without filters. I love working with clients of all backgrounds who are coping with challenges due to neurodiversity, chronic illness, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and more.

The ups, downs, and turnarounds of life can be challenging, especially when we're trying to wear a number of hats. As a seasoned Licensed Professional Counselor with a lot of experiences wearing different hats, I know that sometimes challenges can become overwhelming. Feelings of depression, anger and extreme anxiety and worry can cause us to question our purpose for being. If you're at that place in your life, I can help. One of my life's goals is to empower, encourage, and inspire people who are struggling to make sense of life.

My therapeutic approach encourages personal growth and provides opportunities for clients to learn information and skills to help them find a more balanced, meaningful life. I believe that the clients are the true experts in their lives, so I work with my client to establish a treatment plan that is specific to their identified needs and goals. I believe there is no “one size fits all” form of therapy. I pull from a variety of modalities so that I can tailor treatment to your specific needs. As a first-generation Asian American, I understand and have experienced mental health stigma.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, perfectionism, body image concerns, and eating disorders, as well as those who identify as neurodivergent, including individuals with ADHD, OCD, autism, sensory sensitivity, or brains that simply work differently than what society often expects. I especially enjoy working with women and gender-diverse individuals who are curious about learning both how to work with their thoughts alongside how to listen to and support their nervous system. I also have experience working in higher levels of care, such as PHP and IOP, and enjoy supporting clients as they navigate transitions in their treatment.

"I'm okay. Everything's alright". You tell yourself this repetitively while withholding tears and smiling for everyone else. You secretly struggle to believe what God says about you. Some days you feel so alone. You battle to feel loved and good enough to be the person God created you to be. Anxiety, depression, fear, grief, loss, shame and trauma have become emotional strongholds. Life seems to keep coming and you feel depleted. You ultimately want to live in freedom in your mind, no longer enslaved by the pain of the past, comparison, and even fear that your future will be failure. You desire to sense hope and fulfillment again.
