I’m an Asian queer therapist based in NYC, offering sessions in English and Mandarin. I work closely with BIPOC, queer, and first-generation clients who often feel suspended between cultures and identities, carrying expectations that never quite match who they really are. Many of the people I meet speak of trying to be the good student, the devoted child, the dependable partner, while privately feeling invisible and exhausted. You may know the weight of appearing composed while inside you are worn down by burnout, loneliness, or the quiet fear that something vital is slipping away.

I specialize in working with individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship issues, grief and loss, complex life transitions, interpersonal and gender-based violence and systems-related stressors. These experiences can all quietly reshape how we see ourselves, how we relate to others, and how we move through each day. Sometimes these experiences feel sudden and acute. Other times, they build slowly until something that once felt manageable starts to feel like too much. I also bring a unique lens from my background as a postpartum doula, where I supported birthing people and families through the transitions of early parenthood.

Getting stuck in troubling thoughts or painful emotions is part of natural human experience.

I hope you are ready to let go of what is no longer serving you and embark on a personal journey toward the actualization of your full potential and well-being.
