I’m a psychotherapist and psychoanalyst whose path to clinical work followed a long chapter in global leadership. Before this life, I spent decades leading teams across cultures—including as a CEO based in China—navigating complexity, ambition, and identity in high-stakes environments. Over time, though, I began to feel a dissonance between outer success and inner meaning. That shift led me to this work.

Fluent in English, Mandarin, and Shanghainese.
Do you feel an invisible weight — even when you've done everything 'right'? The pressure to meet expectations can quietly show up as persistent anxiety, depression, or burnout. You may find that unprocessed trauma leaks into your daily life — as brain fog, difficulty saying no, or feeling stuck in your relationships. You are tired of just surviving. You want a space where your full identity is understood, so you can finally reclaim who you truly are — 在家庭及社会期待与自我之间,找回真实的自己。

I am a trilingual (American English, Mandarin, and Fuzhonese) New York and New Jersey state-licensed psychotherapist.
Meaningful therapy allows vitality, authenticity, and a sense of freedom to emerge. I help clients experience more of these vivid feelings of aliveness. To cultivate them, we first need to understand what is blocking them. Because humans are wired for survival, many protective adaptations: rigid “shoulds,” overthinking, perfectionism, emotional shutdown, or caretaking can become automatic patterns. These strategies often once served an important purpose, but over time they may limit peace, agency, and connection. My work integrates somatic regulation with insight-oriented psychotherapy, helping clients holistically.

I work with people who find themselves caught between who they are and who they think they should be—carrying old stories, hidden emotions, and questions about identity, purpose, and connection. Therapy with me is a collaborative exploration, where curiosity and honesty guide the way, and where even the difficult parts of your life have something meaningful to teach. I believe healing is not about becoming someone new, but about rediscovering the parts of yourself that were silenced or forgotten along the way. Together, we create space for reconnection, self-understanding, and growth that feels deeply your own.
