Therapists in Peterson AFB, CO

Deciding whether or not to seek counseling can resemble a root canal I once had - embarrassment about not brushing properly, pain of the procedure, and the cost all made me wonder if it was worth it. Counseling can seem like this. If you're like me, though, you may also feel stuck or hopeless as problems come up again and again. Will anything really change? Life just is not supposed to be like this... Let me say, you are not alone and there is so much hope!

Let's be honest; it's HARD to find a culturally sensitive therapist who understands what it's like to navigate life as a person of color, especially in the state of Colorado. How do you explain your deep love and respect for certain aspects of your culture while at the same time, acknowledge your disdain for the harmful parts of it? How do you sort through the trauma of not having your emotional needs met as a child while still feeling grateful for your parents' best attempts at loving you? How do you process the desire to assimilate into the dominant culture while not wanting to fully abandon important elements of your identity?

I am a therapist and psychologist speaking both English and Mandarin Chinese. I strive to help children, adolescents, and adults achieve their goals and be happy with who they are. I have helped many families with IEP-related evaluations and issues, including learning disabilities, ADHD, anxiety, depression, and personality disorders. I have also helped couples overcome relationship issues including cultural and linguistic barriers. In therapy, I explore the discrepancy between what you want and what you need. You identify what you need, I will help you get there.
