可能你从细到大都喺「要叻先至值得畀人爱」嘅环境长大，成日揹住父母嘅期望、社会规矩，甚至文化嘅沉默。你学识咗收埋自己嘅需要，将自己硬塞入一个「合格嘅样」入面，但心入面其实一路喺问：我係咪永远都唔够好？係咪真係我嘅错？我唔係嚟修理你嘅，而係想陪你慢慢行，学返点样相信你本身嘅样就已经值得畀人见到。唔成为人哋口中「应该係点」嘅人，其实都係一种好好嘅自我照顾。冇所谓，我哋可以一齐拥抱返个唔完美嘅自己。

You have appeared ok, but deep inside stressed for quite a while.

As a second-generation Chinese American, I grew up in an immigrant household and understand the cultural dynamics my clients carry. I offer in-person therapy at my Manhattan (Flatiron) office and telehealth across New York, New Jersey, and California. Many of my clients are high-achieving Asian American professionals who appear capable on the outside but carry a lot internally, including imposter syndrome, perfectionism, burnout, and the lasting effects of growing up with emotionally immature or unpredictable parents.

I am a Multicultural and LGBTQ+ affirming psychotherapist, a health and wellness enthusiast, and a native New Yorker who works with people in NYC. I specialize in working with high-achieving entrepreneurs, businesspeople, creatives, technologists, and first-generation Asian-Americans who struggle with closeness and intimacy in their relationships, are stuck in patterns and behaviors that no longer serve them, overwhelmed by perfectionism and imposter syndrome, and feel frozen by grief and trauma.

Many of my clients describe life as feeling heavier than it should. They’re checking all the boxes - a good job, stable relationships, family approval, but they feel disconnected from their lives. Some find themselves impatient with people they care about. Activities that once brought joy feel like obligations. They may wonder: Is this just how adulthood feels? Am I being dramatic? For those who are Asian or Asian American, there’s often added invisible weight: a sense of not fully belonging anywhere, guilt about wanting something different from what their parents envisioned, and exhaustion from always needing to prove their worth.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York, I have been providing therapy for the last 10 years.

With a focus on social justice and cultural relevance and nuances, all parts of you and your history will be considered and part of the healing process.

你已经厌倦了不断质疑自己，感觉“不够好”。过去的痛苦经历让你的内心世界蒙上了一层灰色……那些挥之不去的创伤，比如童年创伤、与自恋伴侣的关系以及背叛带来的伤害，都在影响你如何看待自己以及与他人互动的方式。你想要摆脱完美主义、讨好型人格或过度追求成就的行为模式，这些行为往往是为了弥补内在的自我责备、羞耻感或不安全感。通过结合脑点疗法（brainspotting）和精神分析，我们可以探索你的身体、大脑和心灵之间的联系，帮助你突破内心世界的困境，同时处理你在社会、文化和家庭背景中的未解之结。

Anxiety, depression, and panic are normal feelings individuals will experience during their lifetime. But in some cases, these symptoms can manifest into more severe issues. When this happens, it might feel like you're losing control and isolated from the rest of the world. Although this experience can be scary, it doesn't mean you have to do it alone.

I offer virtual sessions to clients located in NY & NJ, available in English, Cantonese, and Mandarin, Monday through Friday from 9am-5pm.
You’ve built a life based on what you were told would lead to happiness and fulfillment. You show up consistently, go above and beyond to get things done, and are seen by others as the "reliable" one. But on the inside, the part of you that feels anxious, unsure, and exhausted by being everything to everyone is rarely recognized. Many of the clients I work with are navigating challenges with anxiety, relationships, identity, and life transitions. As a 1.5-generation immigrant, I understand the strain of balancing cultures and expectations, and how grounding it can be to have someone alongside you to help carry the weight of it all.
