Feeling burnt out or overwhelmed in your personal and professional life? Navigating the different ways in which your identities and past experiences affect your present and your relationships?

There are seasons in life when carrying everything alone becomes too heavy, and we need someone to walk alongside us. Finding the right therapist takes time, emotional energy, and courage, and that decision deserves care. If you are reading this now, you may be at the beginning of an important exploration. Therapy can be challenging, but it can also become one of the safest and most grounding moments in your week. As an Asian, queer, trilingual art therapist and neurodivergent first-generation immigrant, I work closely with BIPOC, AAPI, immigrant, and LGBTQ+ clients navigating relationship, trauma, identity, and life transitions.

I work with adults who feel stuck in patterns that don’t seem to change—often connected to early experiences, trauma, or ongoing relationship dynamics. Many are navigating depression, anxiety, identity concerns, or ongoing struggles in relationships and self-worth.
People often come in knowing something isn’t working, even if they can’t fully name it yet. Therapy is a space to slow things down, make sense of what’s underneath those patterns, and understand what keeps them going.
Over time, the work is about more clarity, steadier emotional ground, and more choice in how you respond to yourself and others.

At any stage of our lives, we may face increasing interpersonal challenges, pressures both external and internal, or overwhelming uncertainty. In the wake of these tumultuous, at times isolating, forces, we are often left with a fragmented sense of self or a persistent feeling of discontent. Frequently we lack the opportunity–or at times, even the ability– to articulate these experiences and to have them to be acknowledged.

Welcome. I’m glad you’re here.
My ideal client is someone who has built a full, functioning life—career, relationships, responsibilities—while carrying experiences that haven’t been fully processed. They may appear strong and capable, yet feel the quiet impact of past trauma, painful relationships, or unresolved experiences beneath the surface.
They don’t necessarily want to “start over” or dismantle their life. They want relief. They want to understand themselves more clearly. They want to feel steady, connected, and at peace without losing the stability they’ve worked hard to create.

I invite anyone dealing with issues like anxiety, codependency, addiction, and eating disorders to work with me. For over 10 years I work well with people who are motivated and ready to make difficult changes in their lives—changes they’ve struggled to manage on their own and need more support with. I offer a warm and honest space to meet people where they are and walk with them through the process. My approach is relational and I gently challenge limiting beliefs and stories, whether it’s perfectionism or “not enoughness,” which often hold people back from being their most authentic and compassionate selves.
