I am a clinical psychologist providing therapy and assessment services in Scarsdale and Greenwich.

Therapy is a collaborative experience in which my work is to support you in being and becoming you, however complicated that may appear in your life. I practice a variety of therapeutic modalities, but in all cases I focus primarily on your emotional experience, which includes your voice, your needs, and your choices. I incorporate mainly a person-centered approach and integrate cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, solution-focused therapy, and motivational interviewing to guide you towards your path to fulfillment.

I work with adults of all ages struggling with depression, anxiety and life transitions. As a queer woman, I understand the existing barriers around access to mental health support in queer and trans communities; I have worked with many queer and trans clients surrounding issues of trauma, identity development, self-exploration and more. Having had training in couples therapy, I also specialize in work with couples and relationships focusing on intimacy, communication and conflict management.

When faced with one of life's many obstacles, I believe the first important step is to reach out for support. We may need help to move through a transitional time in our lives, to work through a rough patch, or to build skills to better manage a crisis. Examining issues through a CBT lens allows us to identity thoughts and behaviors that can cause us distress. We address these thoughts and behaviors to improve your life. I believe all individuals have strengths. Through therapy, we will work together to capitalize on these strengths and develop a healthier sense of self.

Perhaps you are reading this because you feel disconnected and alone. Or you have this sense that you can’t fully be yourself. Maybe there’s a relationship that you can’t move past or it feels like there’s more grief inside you than you know what to do with. Perhaps you find yourself dancing around the pain or retreat into numbness? Maybe you are in a relationship that feels more alone than together?

You may find yourself here because you feel lost within your relationships, or are losing control over your thoughts and emotions.

Deciding on a therapist for your teen can feel like an extremely complicated process but finding the right therapist for your family is extremely important. We rarely find ourselves seeking therapy when everything is comfortable and going well, instead, we may be feeling helpless, unlovable, angry, isolated, and stuck in situations without solutions, only reinforcing how inadequate we feel. Your teen may feel confused, fearful, angry, or depressed. You may be concerned about their mood or behaviors. You want to help and that's why you're reaching out. You just want them to feel better and for them to get the support they need.

It is my strong belief that the systems we navigate directly impact our mental health and well-being, and that through recognition and critical consciousness of these influences, we can radically free ourselves. My therapeutic approach borrows from Freirean thought, acknowledging that individuals are masters of their own experiences and that collaboratively we will liberate each other. I believe growing up multiracial (Chinese; White) and queer positioned me well to see how uniquely multifaceted each person is. In my therapy, we will nurture a nonjudgmental and explorative space centering your growth.
