Feeling tired? Struggling to make it through the day? People say help is there but it isn’t so easy to find it. Finding the right therapist for you is easier said than done! Inner exploration is not always easy and can be uncomfortable at times, but I would be honored to begin the journey with you. Collaboratively, we will identify the most pressing issues, discuss possible interventions, and find ways to reach your goals. Future clients should be comfortable using telehealth. Please remember that virtual therapy is convenient, but may not be suitable for those struggling with active psychosis or severe mental health disorders.
Rest assured that you will have the space and dignity to share with me. I treat all my clients with the utmost respect while offering acceptance and knowledge. Though clinically trained in traditional modalities, I offer a unique experience to each client because there is no size fits all in mental health. You are worthy and deserve the support and care.
About me: I am a 2nd generation Chinese American with deep roots in the Asian community. I am fluent in English and Mandarin Chinese. Growing up in the melting pot of NYC, I have both extensive professional and lived experience working with individuals from all backgrounds and various marginalized communities. I look forward to meeting you!

I also work with people struggling with bipolar and personality disorders. Symptoms should be low-moderate as virtual therapy is considered the lowest level of care. Severe symptoms require a higher level of care, such as outpatient programs or in-person therapy.

Though clinically trained in Trauma-focused-CBT, DBT, and mindfulness, I believe it is up to each person to find what works for them. Often times it is a blend of various modalities. Whatever your process may be, I will be here with you figure it out. I will also do the hard but necessary job of holding you accountable.
