I am a licensed therapist in Washington state and provide therapy for individuals of all ages. My approach to therapy is collaborative, with sessions tailored to meet each individual’s needs and treatment goals. I aim to create a space where you feel understood and supported, and to help you reconnect with your inner strengths, values and sense of purpose. Identifying and verbalizing your thoughts and feelings are the first steps towards planning and engaging in actionable steps towards growth and healing, which is a concept that I will work with you on.
As an immigrant, I’m familiar with the unique challenges that come from growing up between cultures. My lived experiences have exposed me to the complexity of cultural and generational divides, as well as the importance of embracing one’s own cultural identity. Whether you're dealing with anxious thoughts or depressive symptoms, I'm here to work with you.
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in the State of Washington (LW61263458), and hold my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Washington. Outside of work, I enjoy weightlifting, spending time with my dog and playing video games.
