Parenting adult children can feel surprisingly hard. You might feel like you’re walking on eggshells, unsure what to say or why things feel so different now. Maybe you’re thinking, “I don’t know how to connect anymore,” or noticing that they don’t call or text as often as you would like. There are few guidelines for this stage of parenting. It can feel confusing, lonely, and quietly sad. This sadness is hard to name because nothing is exactly wrong, but something has clearly changed.

In my practice, I believe that the most profound work happens when you feel truly seen and understood without judgment. I work with individuals who feel like they are constantly navigating a world that wasn't built for them; whether that’s due to the weight of past trauma, the daily "static" of ADHD, or the heavy, cycling exhaustion of anxiety and depression.

I am passionate about serving the Asian community. You deserve a safe, understanding space to be yourself. Maybe seeking help outside the family feels culturally taboo or past bullying has left you feeling like you don’t belong. You may feel pressure to prove your worth, leading to self-criticism, perfectionism, or difficulty expressing anger, grief, or affection. These struggles can affect friendships and intimacy—but you don’t have to face them alone.

I'm a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in the treatment of overwhelming anxiety, PTSD, trauma, emotional pain, and relationship issues. Are you feeling anxious about the future or stuck in the past? Do you put on a 'calm and collected' front so that others don't see you struggle? Do worries keep you up at night? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you've come to the right place. Often what keeps us stuck in distress are unhelpful beliefs or old patterns of emotions. But healing can happen when we listen closely and try something new.

I believe that we all struggle, at times, to cope with difficult feelings. You know, the ones that have been with us all our lives? The ones that make us feel stuck and hopeless at times? I also believe that we can make some sense out of our feelings by examining past relationships. With this awareness we can begin to look at your current feelings and relationships. In a non-judgmental environment, come as you are. We will approach this together.

My clinical background includes CBT, ACT, DBT, mindfulness-based stress reduction, psychodynamic therapy, embodiment practices and schema therapy.
I view therapy as a collaborative partnership, and I work with clients to create a space that feels grounded, thoughtful, and individualized. As a relational, integrative psychotherapist, I draw from evidence-based practices to support individuals navigating life transitions, identity development, and the emotional difficulties that accompany change. I often support clients facing fast-paced, competitive environments, including challenges around self-doubt, unrelenting standards, and the pressure to "have it all together." I aim to help make sense of these experiences while fostering self-understanding, resilience, and self-trust.
