My expertise also spans LGBTQ and Asian -American concerns.
Are you a creative, tender soul confronted with issues of self-worth and having trouble getting your needs met? Do you strive to ensure you're liked, accepted, and approved of at the expense of expressing your authentic self or pursuing what you truly desire? Are you your own worst critic, rarely giving yourself a break from the burden of shame, blame, and guilt? I believe in our true state of being, we are all already brilliant and whole. My job therefore is not to "fix" or "cure" you, but to help you reconnect with your innate resources so you can naturally heal and grow.

I integrate a culturally-sensitive approach, especially when working with Asian / Asian -American and other BIPOC individuals.
Hello lovely people, life is short and how can we live the best of it? How can you manage work stress and social anxiety? Do you often doubt yourself, feel lonely or sad, and can't find purpose in life? I believe psychotherapy is not only about curing or resolving pain, but also increasing awareness and understanding and accepting the full range of human emotion. It’s important to feel our different emotions and learn how to express ourselves fully. I am specialized in the treatment of anxiety, depression, intimacy, low self-esteem, trauma, interpersonal relationships, and self-exploration.

I'm a first-generation queer Asian American clinician, and my practice is informed by an anti-oppressive lens.
Are you feeling overwhelmed in areas of your life including career, relationships, family; or notice you are repeating the same patterns? Perhaps, you are looking for ways to create a more balanced life and build closer relationships. Maybe you are looking for more fulfillment and meaning than your job provides, or experiencing unhappiness but you are unsure what to do about it. I understand that life can be hectic and sometimes we can get caught up in the events of daily life, experiencing anxiety or doubts about ourselves.

As an Asian immigrant, I understand the struggles and rewards of adapting to a new culture.
Are you feeling uncertain whether or not your issues deserve to be shared, or if you want to share them at all? Starting therapy can be scary and exciting at the same time. I will gently guide you to ease into this journey. Gradually, we will together build a warm space for you to relax, express, struggle and grow.

I have have extensive experience working with Asian Americans and other communities of color, immigrants, Millennials, Gen Z, college students, and healthcare workers.
We all need spaces in our lives to be seen and heard. There are times, however, when it can be hard to find those spaces of acceptance, non-judgment, and problem solving. I will work with you to explore and find solutions to the challenges that come with navigating the realities of our complicated lives. My approach in therapy focuses on each person's unique stories, strengths, and resilience, from a space of empathy, and concrete tools to move forward. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process that balances spaces of acceptance with change, which is based in cognitive & dialectical behavioral therapy (CBT) and (DBT).

I am a clinical psychologist with 8+ years of experience. My areas of expertise include depression, anxiety disorders, substance use, acculturation, and relationship/interpersonal difficulties and more. Being an Asian immigrant and having lived in different countries (Hong Kong, Malaysia, England), I understand the struggle of having misaligned values and ideals from the people around us. However, these experiences have also helped me connect with people of different cultures and mentalities, and have helped me to understand how people relate to their own mental health.

Whether you struggle with depression or anxiety, are stuck repeating old patterns, or seek support for a specific goal, therapy can be a tool for decreasing stress, building self-compassion, and re-discovering yourself. I offer a safe, collaborative, and nonjudgmental space for you to explore your feelings, while finding the path that leads you to more joy and fulfillment in life. My Asian American identity helps me attune more easily with cross-cultural and intergenerational issues, and I work with both English and Mandarin-speaking patients.

As a first generation Asian American, I am attuned to the experiences of those exposed to more than one culture and their individual experiences.
These days, we are busy and stressed. It seems that the tasks never end, and the work never stops. Everyday seems to have something new that can potentially bring down a delicate balance that we have worked so hard to achieve. We hear about self-care and work/life balance, but we struggle to do these things. You want to do it all but there never seems to be enough time. Sometimes work, school, family, friends, or anything else makes it difficult for you to have some time to process and think.

As a queer, Korean therapist, I’m passionate about working with folks of Asian descent and people of marginalized genders of the global majority. I want us to be free from the harms of oppressive systems, and find belonging and home in ourselves and relationships. My lens is relational, intersectional, trauma-informed, mindfulness-based, and anti-oppressive. I trust the wisdom of my clients' systems. Whatever context you bring deserves to be met with gentle curiosity. I follow your lead with offering choices, asking for consent, and discerning what’s informing the parts of you, states, and feelings you’re experiencing.

If you are South Asian American, listen up: Being your own person does not make you less of a Brown person; it makes you a more genuine one. If you have been ever labeled the "Black sheep" of your community or family, been told that you are too "Whitewashed", "Too South Asian ", or "Not Brown enough", you've come to the right place. Maybe you've struggled to belong in your community, but you belong right here! That's why I go by "The Bad Indian Therapist", because as someone who was raised Indian and Catholic, I've also been called these things too. We won't fit anyone's definition of "South Asian ", so let's be "bad" together!

Having been born in the Philippines and moving to the US at a young age, I also offer insights on the immigrant and Asian / Asian -American experience.
My role is to hold space and provide compassionate, open-minded support for clients as they work through life’s challenges and dive into the process of discovering who they are on a deeper level. As an art therapist, I also offer experience in the use of art making as a non-verbal, creative means of expressing emotions, building inner resources, and developing personal agency. Sometimes it can be difficult to describe our internal world with words alone, but the combination of art and traditional talk therapy can make for a powerful mode of healing. If you are looking to create a new narrative, I am here to collaborate with you.

As an Asian immigrant, I have personally experienced the challenges of adapting to a new culture.
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.

How can I find a therapist in New York?

Search for nearby therapists or counselors by inputting your city, town, or suburb; or zip code; or a provider’s name into the search bar. From there, you can filter providers by the issues they treat, cost, insurance, gender, and other factors to find providers who are well-suited to your needs. To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or zip code into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

What type of therapist is right for me?

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist, psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
